Again paper talk but seems I make sense rumour that he's the player AVB wants to take over from frank, would love to see this but got a feeling tbere'll be to much competition from other clubs

Sadly it's not going to happen.

I'm going to be a little bit more optimistic and cross my fingers :/

I'd love to see us in for him if Dortmund were going to sell; unless he suddenly decides he wants to move on, there's no earthly reason they would sell.

Would be outstanding, one of the top youngsters out there, watched a bit of him in Europe this year and very impressed with him. Exactly the type of signing that would help take our team to the next level. Having the likes of Goetze, mata, Sturridge, Romeu in the team would be so encouraging and a young group of players that could provide a great core for the club for many seasons to come

Would be a sensational signing, but its very unlikely. The great thing about it is that he is still young but already looks ready to step into a top clubs starting 11. Would command a massive transfer fee but like sals said he is a signing that would take us to the next level.

How massive would his expected transfer fee be, though? I have only seen him a few times and he is one of a crop of young players in Germany right now that I am impressed with.

however, how much could we honestly expect to pay for him, and what is fair? Imagine Dortmund said that they'd let him go for $25 million, is that too much?

I think they've said they'll let him go for £50m! But, I'd say around £30+m realistically.

I think this guy should be out Number 1 transfer targer in Jan tbh.

I think the $50 mill is being attached to every player we are now linked with after the Torres deal
