On his salary expectations, you mean? he should have, and stayed at Bayern. Would have become a club legend.

His 27 became a trademark quite early. Low numbers aren't what they used to be, BS31...

Do you have any word on his plans?
Your guess is as good as mine (and anyone's). Local media say he not only wants 10+ net on a 5 year contract, but also a guarantee on a DM starting spot. RM is having second thoughts because of the money, also they want him as CB. Juve left the race, Chelsea's interest is cooling, last team left willing to meet his demands seems to be PSG which he doesn't favor.

Maybe one of the two Manchester cough up the money. But it is said he - or his girlfriend-don't fancy the English weather very much, either. Bold move, if you ask me, in Covid circumstances, to be that picky. Seems he found the right agent if he tries to sell himself as a cocky SOB. He is, in a good way, though. Any team can consider itself lucky to have him.
