I think if we have to consider player + cash deals for Kane then maybe we need to think about how much.

Like for me, the offer of someone like Jesus+90m is disgustingly bad. There would need to be a decent make weight in the deal like a Laporte etc for City to make it worth our while. Clubs trying to offload their shit on us like UTD did with Frazer Campbell is just a slap in the face.

Likewise with UTD; Martial would be an alright option depending on what system we play (i think he'd be good in a 352/343) but I'd still want a good wedge alongside him in order to buy some other players.

Chelsea?? Werner won't be going anywhere although I can imagine if our coach were from the Bundesliga they may like the idea. There aren't many players there that i'd want.

City is the only club I see Kane going, especially with Aguero leaving.

Realistically, I would like us to try Pedro Porro + Cash.
Porro is on loan at Sporting and they have an option. RM is also sniffing around. He also got a Spanish cap recently.
Of all the City loan players, I like him and will fit the most for what we want.

I get what saying about Ndombele but I still have a feeling he could be one of the best in the league under the right manager/system.

3 managers including Mason have been reluctant to play him. Even out of Euros squad when Sissoko is able to find a place in it. He lacks the tactical nous or the application. I would loan him out for high fee to Serie A and hope he has a good season so we can sell him high for 22/23.

Can anybody tell me more about the right back Emerson Royal whose contract is expiring with Betis but apparently going back to Barca?

Tell you what, we might be able to convince a striker to join if he thinks Kane is leaving this summer :LOL:

I can understand the reservations over Grealish.

He's absolutely a bit of an off-field drama, as we've seen, so there's an underlying behavioural thing. He also plays for his boyhood team, as the captain, and isn't really ever in a situation where he'd find himself out of the team.

I don't know what money he's on, but it's far from guaranteed that he'd have a big move and still crack on as per before. He wouldn't be the first or last to go from big fish in little pond, to expensive turd. We'll probably find out at some point, but it's logical to have reservations.

I believe Barca have to pay €9m to bring him back next season. Betis then get a % if Barca sells him.

Rumoured price is around £20-25mill and that Barca will sell. We could do a cheeky loan with a fee upfront and the rest afterwards so that Barca dont have to pay Betis as much - like we did with GLC.

What's he like as a player, is he somebody we should be interested in?

100%. He is very good defensively and also going forward. Has a good cross on him. Loads on energy getting up and down the wing and is faster than Aurier.

He would be my number 1 target for RB over any of the other options out there.

Cold hard cash if Kane has to leave.

Don’t want the deadwood from other clubs.

I think I'm the opposite. I don't trust Levy to spend 150m well but (let's take Chelsea as an example as that swap was rumoured yesterday), Hudon-Odoi and Tammy Abraham and a lot of cash?
