Kicker heard from a save source, that they rejected the bid and have informed Upamecano, that they don't give him their approval to leave Leipzig this year.

But they don't have everything in their hands, because he has a 100m release clause this year.

Looks like everything below they will not accept.
So no deal i think. We will not pay 100m for him.

agree, we wont pay that.

just for concreteness:
100m € (92m £) last summer 2018, now its probably something around 90m € (82m £)

If this level of bid is true should have no issue getting a starting CB.

Have to think considerably less gets us Umtiti, Kimpembe, Diakhaby, Zouma, David Luiz or Zagadou.

With half we can match the buyout for Djene or add it to Chambers for an Ake bid.

Just time against us.

At this point we'll need to get Tierney deal done. maybe PSG will allow us to get Kimpmebe on loan but we not linked with him.

You need to read between the lines. The first leak of the bid was Bild, couple days later Kicker and the French papers have info. Wouldn’t be surprised if we’ve already agreed a fee.

Raul knows.

I don't get how you came to that conclusion.

They’re slowly getting fed info. If this is going to happen a deal will have to be in place by now you’d imagine, it’s a massive deal.

I fear we will be signing no CB. This lot seem to be asking too much and I don’t see any other alternative if Rugani isn’t an option. The window is turning into a bit of a stinker.

Glad we didn't sign him. I'm not sure if he is all that tbh and his injuries make me worry. I think we got the better player for a measely 5-10m.
