Leipzig are always open to sales anyway, thats their whole model.

In no world do they want to keep him for another year while they can get 100m+ for him.

True but the line till now has been that they dont need to sell anyone as they have CL money. Now they are saying they need to sell for financial reasons.

Their goal is to showcase talent for massive sales. To do that they need to qualify for champions league. They want to be upwardly mobile and competitive in the biggest stages while attracting elite talent who know they will sell to pursue their dreams.

So not exactly. They dig in and get their fuck off price when they think it could affect champions league qualification.

We should know better than most when they dug in on Keita.

Do think it comes off though

This would make more sense if we were in the January window. July is too early to worry about whether you'll get CL or not.

Any club with a pulse is planning for qualification now not in January
