No way that Lewandowski rumors are true. Bayern won't sell him this summer. Next summer...maybe. It all feels like a ploy to get more money out of the club. It's just like when we were suddenly linked with Neuer not too long ago and he then got a new contract at Bayern.

Yes, I just looked into it on a more granular level, and there is zero chance he is leaving Bayern.

It is all his agent agitating for a 2 year extension to take his contract to 2025.

Kane is clearly desperate to leave. He’s off 100% if a club comes in with £100m. Judging by that interview he will absolutely put in a transfer request when he speaks with Levy about his future.

As for Lewandowski, Bayern’s chairman already said last week that they aren’t even considering selling him. We can cross that one off.

Looks like it’s Haaland or bust for us. We’ll have to think of some more unconventional targets.

But what will he do if no club comes in for him, especially with that kind of money? What if Levy will not back down?

City definitely would.

I know people keep on saying City would because they have a lot of money but they have actually been careful to not pay over the odds for a player. Their most expensive signing is Dias at only £68m, that is less than what we paid for Havertz or Kepa. It's also debatable whether Guardiola even wants a striker considering his penchant for the False 9.

Feels to me like one of those situations where he and his agent have gotten signals from one or more clubs that they’re interested and will formally make a move for him. That’s why he’s starting the push now in public. Probably Pep and City in his ear.

Levy could definitely play hardball but he has eventually broken down and sold. Modric, Bale, Eriksen. This could cause a massive distraction and headache for the new manager they’re bringing in to have you best player unhappy and wanting out.

Their journos has been saying City will buy a new no .9.

Maybe or he could be overplaying his cards. I mean, he stupidly signed that 6-year contract and gave his future to Levy. 

Have also mentioned before, if you're gonna spend 100m+ on a striker, you would be better off spending it on someone like Haaland. Kane will guarantee instant success because of his age but in terms of long term investment, he makes no sense if someone like Haaland is available. No point spending 100m+ now on a player and then potentially needing to spend big again in 2-3 years time.

Even so, no guarantee Guardiola will go for Kane anyway.

Also, IF Messi becomes available this summer, would Guardiola go for him instead?

Maybe, but Kane and Messi are more suited to Guardiola's system than Haaland or Lukaku.

Pep strikes me very much like a win now guy. He’s got this unbelievable core of guys now and Kane can make them firm favorites for the next 2-3 years with that core. While for me Haaland is a guaranteed success were he to come to the PL there is still some risk of him needing to adjust like we’ve seen with Timo. If Kane is fit he’s already instantly the best #9 in the league and not a risk at all.

You’ve got to capitalize on the primes of Kdb, Sterling, Walker, Gundogan etc before they start to wane physically. So a shorter term option makes sense. They were after 34 year old Messi last summer, remember.

why would lukaku leave inter? doesnt makes sense.

lewandowski 0% chance. kane maybe 1% chance. haaland, i would give 5-10% chance.

i would be fine with only sancho coming and ziyech/odoi leaving. havertz and werner will only be better next season, im sure.

You can't compare Kane with Messi because Messi is Messi. 

Guardiola hasn't always bought ready made players and they don't really need Kane to be firm favorites. They are always the favorites anyway and they could potentially win the treble this season pretty much without a striker.

They won’t be favorites if we beat them in the final and sign Haaland. 😉
