Surely it's Rafa who's turned them down? Told that £30m budget was asking too much, and decided it wasnt for him.

Well Learner is suppose to be loaded and with them selling young for £15m £30m is not unreasonable.

Things I've learned on a busy day: #mcfc are now favourites for Alexis Sanchez, according to Udinese.

[IN_RAFA_WE_TRUST]

We should make an offer.

[IN_RAFA_WE_TRUST]

Does that mean Barca are concentrating on Rossi or Fabregas?

[IN_RAFA_WE_TRUST]

Or Udinese trying to get as much money as they can.

[Maxiedge]

Or Udinese trying to get as much money as they can.

I think it might be Sanchez looking to get as much money as he can. I don't think he wants to join City to fulfill a lifelong dream or because of the fantastic flowing football they played last season

Pastorello says Barca told him @GiuseppeRossi22 is 1 of 3 candidates for Barca front 3. (tks @mforok ) Another is Sanchez, who is the 3rd?

Marcotti Gabriele Marcotti
Lot of suggestions for who Barca's "3rd man" might be: Tevez, Neymar, Griezmann, Aguero, Hazard, Poulsen... Leaning towards Griezmann myself...
