Possible more twists and turns then. Knowing RM and the fax machine situation, it wouldn't surprise me... though Morata could do some heavy lifting on his end.
But politically it would be silly -- we will have to play them like twice within a month during the pre-season. Awkward.
So why are Real so willing to sell him?
i think this is in line with Maureen's comment before the Palace game IINM. He said something like the team needs good base or foundations for the young players (like Mitchell, Harrop, Gomes) to perform.
For me it could mean literally that, or he means only players that have good foundations (experience) can play for United at the highest level. Rashford probably a bit of anomaly where he thrives on being pressured or pushed, again based on Maureen's recent comments.
Because they're getting 73 million euros? Thats 40 more million than what they got him for from Juventus. Also, Zidane doesnt seem too keen on him.
Real had sold the likes of Sneijder, Robben, Makelele, Di Maria, Huntelaar, Higuain, Ozil etc. before, even when they were in their prime. Whenever a player is no longer in their plans they sell them off, doesn't matter if they are really good.
We still need a Woodward special signing thrown in, one that comes completely from nowhere. He can get his 4 players then Woodward can go all muppet and bring in a superstar.
Do you think the reason no concrete news has come out yet is because the club are worried he may not get a work permit?
I've looked on his Wikipedia and he still doesn't have a cap for Argentina.
We'll have to rely on 'exceptional talent'. At least one way or another we will know if he's world class or not before we actually sign him.

Who you talking about?
This is the overspill of a 'joke' that has already been done death and beaten with a stick.
They'll offload Morata and James and go balls deep for Mbappe. First world problems.
Thanks for confirming. Very confusing joke.
Very good business by Real, if so. I just worry for Mbappe.
They aren't and afaik they weren't last summer either. Morata himself is the one looking for a move in case he can't get guarantees to start more at RM, which is understandable.
Seems to have a good head on his shoulder but Real can turn anyone. I think it's too early for him too tbh but the kid is special, maybe he'll hit the ground running. If not, we'll be in for him for 100mil couple of years down the line so it's not all bad

Hahahaha, true.
They don't want to keep a player who apparently wants to leave.
True, especially with it being a World Cup year.
It is refreshing though, we're looking to be getting a player who wants to leave and play, rather than the snake we bought off them last time around.
Seriously? The Gambling Times?
Well at least they're not hiding their affiliation with transfer gambling markets

Pretty sure he was working for Sky previously, dont know what happened there
Are you worried that they'll get him and ruin him or that we are missing out on him?
So no medical on Monday then.
There's definitely a few turns left in this "saga". Bound to be a meltdown after the Spain match when he says how much he loves Real.

I'm a bit concerned about his scoring record at Juve. Is there a particular reason why he only scored 15 and 12 goals in his two seasons there?, to put things into context Marcus Rashford scored 11 goals last season. In terms of technical quality and physicality he's really good but that doesn't always translate into 30 goals a season striker.
IIRC Evra said that Morata struggled in Serie A because of the focus on tactical side, and he was much better in the CL, if that's the case then maybe he can thrive in PL, which focuses a lot on physics instead of tactics
1st season
League 8 goals + 5 assists in 11 starts
Champions league 5 goals + 2 assists in 9 starts
2nd season
League 7 goals + 7 assists in 16 starts
Champions league 2 goals + 2 assists in 6 starts.
Tevez was the preferred option during his stay there.
He will be a 30 goal a season striker if he starts every game in the number 9 position. His conversion rate is also around 25% which is very high.
Both!

Wow! Can't see us having the budget for all 3 though! 2 out of 3 would be amazing enough for me.
I've only just noticed that Morata and De Gea were in the Atletico youth team together for 3 seasons. Re-uniting the pair of them could help to keep DDG at the club in the long run.
Might do the opposite.
Morata knows a ton of players here: the Spanish lads, Pogba, Jose and even Fabinho if he joins.
If we got all three, I think we'd be a good bet for the CL next season.
When did Sport Witness go from translaters to wannabe pundits?
He's Spanish
