I actually don't think he really wants to leave, and I don't believe Real are offering the kind of money we want. We should just offer him a renewal until 2021 with wages of 8 million net, and a huge bonus if he manages to help us win the CL. Evra should call him up and be like "Bro, stay with me and let's make history." I get the feeling the chance to win the CL before Buffon retires, Evra being here, and Higuain (among others) joining can convince him that this is the best project for him at present. He can then leave in 2018, after a stellar WC, for a world record fee (or in exchange for some awesome players from Real). It just doesn't make sense for him to leave now. His price at 25 years old won't be any different (might potentially increase) then it is now, and his fat fucking prick of an agent will still get his commission anyway, whether it be now, or 2 years down the line.
