This.
Yarmolenko is genuine class and, in terms of age, is at the peak of his career. If he moves from his current CL club, it's going to be to another CL club, and it's going to be a big one or a money one. As in Bayern, PSG, Barca, Madrid, Man U types. If he is free to pick and choose whether or not he enters into negotiations, then he isn't going to Stoke ffs. Any chance we have is very slim and would partially rely on a lack of other clubs coming in for him.
In summary, not holding my breath for what would be an absolutely brilliant transfer for us.
Only 3 clubs made serious enquiries/offers this window though.
