Yes--our only hope is how absolutely broke La Liga is due to covid.

Madrid ain’t spending £100m on them. I don’t see who can stump the money.
That would be a very good deal for us and we should take it if offered.
Nah they can stump up £100m cash too. Fuck 'em.
I could jive with this...... I said from day one:
£150m cash
£200m part-ex
.....and Laporte + Silva + 100m fits that remit.
Then:
70m - ST1
30m - ST2
Buy a killer RB and sell some more dregs.
//Close window.
Not enough cash.
Fixed
Actually £101m plus the players. They can pay out more cash than they did for Grealish just as a principle.
Yes it is broke and just lost its biggest star but I am pretty sure Real Madrid are restructuring their squad at the moment and if they can offload hazard and Isco they would be able to buy both for 70 Million. The fact is no one know which players they were offering and what I heard the deal they offered was 75 plus bonuses, players could make up part of the 75 and I did not see a list of the players,
Having thought about it, I'd be saying to them £100M cash plus Laporte, take it or leave it as our baseline requirement.
Every time they contact us, ask them 1 question, £100M + Laporte? No? See you later and walk out.
Rinse and repeat.
£100M covers the cost of strikers, Laporte sorts our defence.
If they say he doesn't want to come, advise them to "persuade" him, it worked with Kane after all.

They wouldn't. I'm just saying that's the only fucking way we should accept £100m in cash. Without them, City can stump up between £150m and £200m, or fuck off.
Why would Romero join us or Bryan Gil, we ain’t the top dog but we ain’t Bolton either. Laporte and Silva want out, we can offer them first team football, unless someone offers big money we are there only option.
We could accept that all day long and it won't mean anything once they decline to join us though
So I don't know why people keep suggesting it as a potential solution
It's a non starter
Why not ? Money talks mate. Offer them guaranteed football, plus a chance to stay in the premier league, why is it so impossible ? We are talking Silva and Laporte here mate. 2 great players but they ain’t Messi or Ronaldo are they ? They want to leave and are definitely within the realms of possible to be included in a swap deal with Kane
You can't put either of those two on the level of Silva or Laporte Yet
And neither of them joined us as a makeshift deal from city
It's more about making a point though isnt it. £100M cash on its own simply isn't enough. So City would need to offer that plus players (and you're probably right in saying they wouldn't come), or a fuck load more cash.
Simple really.
It's City who need to be realistic.
