More and more Bayern seems to be the only sensibly run "big club".

As a member, I concur!

Not this window, no. Next year, maybe. Bayern are not a team that sells players but selling him next year will fund a Haaland acquisition.

He could force his way out in the next week. My guess is someone (City?) have him lined up.

I think City is the only option for this transfer window.

Doubt that happens. If it did happen, City better wire $150MM.

Could maybe see Barca if Griezmann agreed to go back the other way but probably doubtful.

United do need an out and out striker and can probably make it work. Relying on Greenwood and Cavani all season is probably asking for problems.

Someone might pay 100 mil but that's risky for a 33 y/o striker.

He obviously wants a new contract and Bayern don't want to give him one to pay him through his mid-30's. Having a pissy superstar in the room isn't worth the noise though when your club's still in a CL contention window. I'd sell. If he declines this year you're up shit's creek next summer.

I'd almost rather have Lewandowski for 100 mil than 28yr old Kane for 150 mil.

Can't see how United could afford him (assuming they are playing by the FFP rules) and Barca couldn't afford his wages I don't think.

If you're trying to win today you take Lewy 10/10.

So, things weren't very nice in Nice today as they took on Marseille in Ligue 1 action (crowd pitch invasion starts just after the 6 minute mark)
