apparently man city defender Nastasic is available in a cut price deal for £5Million. would it be worth bringing this lad in and would he be able to progress similarly to John Stones to form a future partnership for ongoing seasons, particularly considering Distan is likely to retire at the end of this season, Jags is the wrong side of 30 now, alcaraz is injury prone and Browning is not forcing any of the above out of 1st team contention this season?

£5 mill would be a steal, would probably depend on how brownig and Galloway are progressing

I'd go for him at 5m. A top class defender and as you say one to be partnered with John Stones at CB with the likely departure of Distin for next season.

Five million does seem too good to be true, which is usually the case, so my question is, 'why are ManCity apparently making available for such a low price?'
As long as Browning and Galloway prove good enough to compete with Stones and Jagielka for the centre-back roles in our first team (and even if this is the last season at Everton for Distin and Alcaraz), then I don't see RM bringing in another centre-back.

Man city could be making him available due to a number of reasons. Firstly they may not see him in their future plans, they may be happy with other defenders developing in their youth more than him, city can buy quality whenever it suits them so no need to develop the youngsters and take a chance, they may not be able to fit him into squad quotas in future due to other players they are more interested in including. All I know is if he's available for 5 mill. Get the lad because u won't find much better in youth development than him now and the price is intriguing.

{Ed007's Note - Celtic have a young CB called Jason Denayer on loan from City, he's supposedly the 'next Kompany'. I don't know about that but for a 19 y.o kid he's strolling through SPFL games and looks the part in the EL as well. City have big plans for him but they've been impressed with the way he's progressing up here and might loan him to us next season as well.}

I think Nastasic will be available because they want Barkley and can use him to spice up the offer.

Ignoring nastasic will be the reason pellegrini loses his job in may, i'd take nastasic, but they are not having barkley, if they say we can't get nastasic without barkley, tell them to shove it, stones, ty and galloway are more important anyway
