Doesn't mean we won't do it.
And am also curious, how often do clubs announce signings on weekends? Surely others do it, right? Would find it strange if everything is reserved only for weekdays.
This is what Matt Law reported on the fee...

So...
2017/18 summer spending:
Rudiger - £29 million
Bakayoko - £40 million
Morata - £58 million
Zappacosta - £23 million
Drinkwater - £35 million
Total - £185 million
2020/21 summer spending:
Ziyech - £36 million
Werner - £48 million
Chilwell - £50 million
Havertz - £62 million
Silva - Free
Total - £196 million
Maybe but Marina, according to reports, was always reluctant to pay so much upfront. Could have told Leverkusen that Sarr will be loaned to them if the initial fee is reduced and throw onto add-ons instead.
