As much as I like the idea of BL potentially pushing up the price for Aurier this seems much more like a situation where we try to squeeze AC, they decide to look elsewhere, sign a different RB (likely the guy we would like) and then Leverkusen pulls out when they actually watch game film of Aurier playing for us.
If we have a team dumb enough to want to sign Aurier just get the deal done ASAP before they can back out and we are stuck with him.
This is us bullshitting to get it over the line.
Milan will respond with a leaked rumor of another RB target.
