Enzo Fernandez - Now sold to Man City

Too much of a high profile player for us. Doesn't feel like our signing.
I think I know you mean, IMO would be a great signing but just seem like one that is unlikely that we could get over the line.

Hope I’m wrong of course, but to beat the cream of Europe to a signing like that just sounds like it has much more chance of not happening than it happening.

 
Nothing strange if we do get to sign some cream of the crop and cherry on top, in fact we have already done it prior to the new owners so whatever Todd is doing it's not new. The only new thing is that he picked Potter for a long term project, Roman ultimately didn't care who's at the wheel as long as the ship gets the prize.

With that said, I firmly believe that Mbappe can't decide to leave PSG. Verratti was supposed to go to Barcelona and he simply wasn't let to change clubs during his best years, now he's 30 years old and PSG will let him leave once it's clear to everyone there that his time has passed, he has spent 10 years there. PSG owners don't care to gain from selling players, Mbappe might even dream of playing for Real Madrid but that will have to wait till he has actually passed his peak or something like that, after all look at his current wages.
Mbappe could have left on a free this summer, he was a fool not to.

 
I could never have seen this happening anyway, and if FFP is being cited then presumably that will give some insight into what we can do this window and what we need to raise through outgoings

Mbappe is only under contract to 2024 with the option of a further year. It is mammoth money but any new challenge would be under a new negotiation. If he wants to leave he will under his own terms and just entering his peak!

He can't, PSG won't let him just watch him sign a new contract once again.

 
That’s that then. Was fun while it lasted. 
 
It shouldn't be relevant at this point in time, sure we might spend a lot but we do want to rebuild and sell other players too.

I actually saw Sky Italy reporting that Newcastle is interested in Jorginho right now so if we manage to sell him in January the difference of the fee spent on Enzo would get lower, and we should expect a lot of departures in the summer as well.

“Graham Potter has made it clear to the board it is a midfield revamp that needs to be top of the agenda. 

I’m told it is Christopher Vivell himself personally working on the Enzo deal right now.

Potter wants to play with a back four.”

As it should be, anyone with half a brain should know our midfield needs major work.

Worth waiting for the summer if it means we structure a deal to suit us, and makes more sense for the player and Benfica as well, just as it did for Nkunku and RBL.

Summer we could be up against both Liverpool and United with new sugar daddy's, the time has to be now.

 
Potter already goes up in my esteem if its true he took a look at our midfield and said "This ain't it". 
It's also a very promising early sign for his ability to attract players if he's convinced Nkunku and got both Enzo and Gvardiol even considering.

That's why I said about Nkunku as well. As in get a deal signed and sealed for the summer now, just like Nkunku.

 
We probably need to sign him now while we’re still in the champions league - because we won’t be next season!
