Think it was an ambitious one, but everything points to him staying there. Shame as he's really good

Players have been known to ask to leave, does Alexander Isak ring a bell.

Hughes as captain is hardly going to tell the manager he wants to leave. He'd be shooting himself in the foot if we can't agree a fee.

I only remember him for throwing a wobbly down the tunnel or changing rooms at HT. Or so was said at the time. Didn’t Leon Best do the same at some point as well?

Don't know if I'm remembering right but was it him who discovered he had a heart condition while playing for us?

Seems abit odd how this has all come out. It's been deadly silence when it's come to any transfer news. The one transfer that is most unlikely to happen there is news galore about it

I think it is highly likely to happen once fees and terms have been agreed, though it might not be us he ultimately ends up joining

Never… a player is likely to move if fees and terms are agreed?

Clive Clarke - Wikipedia We had him on loan from Sunderland.

He had a heart attack at half time whilst playing for Sunderland. Roy Keane, his manager, was asked about it after the game and he said “I didn’t know he had a heart”.

Well depends if we bid that third bid doesn’t it. Doubt the club would keep bidding if they had no indication they’d consider around £10 million

Well, you never know. I thought Bonnie Blue would want an obscene amount of money for me to have sex with her, but in the end, she let me in for free.

Matt Grimes wasn’t exactly making ‘come and get me’ shouts at Swansea in the days before he signed. I have no idea where this money is coming from if we’re actually putting these bids in, given we’re not raising huge amounts for MVE.

Not really weird, each transfer is different and clearly one party involved wanted the details out there. This is pretty normal with how Agents work, to try and drive further market interest too.

Dont think there is anything in this now.

Kinda frustrating we haven't got anything over the line this week, but still on we go.

There is obviously something in it. Just because they rejected an offer now doesnt mean they would if we made another bid. Its easy to reject bids that havent been made yet.

It was widely reported that he had informed Swansea that he wanted to leave for the wage we were offering.

Sure, but if he were asked publicly he’d have played a straight bat.

I just don’t think their manager would be going as strong as he has been, and risk pissing off the fans this early in his tenure, if it was likely to happen. I know people will say ‘well he’s not going to say he’s leaving’ but he also doesn’t haven’t say over and over again that he’s not being sold, he’s definitely staying etc. There is some level of middle ground between the two that it would be a lot easier to land in if he thought there was a chance he was going to leave.

I can’t help but think it’s the agent working to get a bigger fish to come in.

Hughes agent would have given us the nod to make a bid if his client was interested. You don’t just make a bid for the sake of it these days.

So basically the manager doesnt want him to go, he spoke to the player who obviously agreed with him, then said if any offers come in its up to the owner! Ground breaking stuff that

Exactly. If we have made 2 bids it’s because the agent believes the player will come to City and personal terms won’t be a problem, and probably that the agent has indicated to City that the player is available if the right value is created.
