The idea that if we just stumped up the cash we would have locked this up ignores the other parties in the room who have every incentive to spend a few days seeing if someone else will stump up even more cash.

Clubs negotiate in December. At least the broad strokes.

There is absolutely no reason this couldn't be ironed out late Dec other than we thought we could chip a few pennies off.

Genoa are a selling club.

They're selling their best player mid season because they are confident they'll have more opportunity to re-invest in several players.

This has more benefit to do this early Jan, when they can also steal a march on rival bidders with less cash up front.
Well you say this like you know so I assume you have experience in this ?

At the end of the day, this is completely out of our control. If he doesn’t choose us, so be it, we move onto next one on the list. Remember when we were all melting down about Luis Diaz and we ended up with Kulu. I trust our scouting and transfer department to sort something out this month.

even more importantly it’s not about getting a CB for the sake of it, we need to be smart with it

De ligt has been rumored to be leaving in the summer, so he prob sees himself as someone that could compete with Kim and upamecano
And how does Bayern communicate that to him and his agents? One of the three great CBs we already have might leave in 6 months, but anyways, please sign this dotted line for your 5 year contract?

If you didn't learn anything from yesterday: maybe just wait like 2 hrs before jumping off the edge. Rollercoasters move fast.

I feel sorry for Dier, if this scuppers his dream move.
Tbf I reckon if he leaves end of season he will go to a team that he is a starter in which he won’t be at BM. He will probably also get a bigger wage as he’ll be on a free. But yeah it does kinda sucks as I’m sure it makes him realise how little they want him.

Especially when you add 'despite the fact he's a fantastic young player, the coach we want you to work with doesn't like him and is trying to push him out'
