Remains to be seen whether he lives up to this huge price tag. Let's hope he does.
Nobody but us would pay that fee would they so that says its not the best value. Same for Maguire. Which other club would have paid 80 to 85m for him.
The only teams who can afford that kind of fee and wage either have their own elite wingers or one they have to shift off their books (Bale).
They are not going to move for Sancho unless they sell their own elite player or move them to another position on the pitch.
Messi/Neymar
Mbappe/Dembele/Griezmann
Bale
Salah/Mane*
He's not going to City and Bayern Munich have their own set of wingers, besides which, neither of these clubs pay the kind of transfer fee being bandied about, period.
This is the most opportune time for us to move for Sancho; if the chain reaction triggers and some of those players moved clubs, we could have direct competition for his signature. I still think at this price point, you only have: Real, Barcelona, United and PSG who are viable destinations.
*questionable Liverpool could or would match the wage and fee giant or oil clubs would pay.
