I’m not convinced by these links to him. I’m still naively hoping we’re allowing our name to be used to force PSG to make a move and Alaba is our actual first choice. If we wanted him he’d be here already surely? He’s been available all summer.
Not when Ed Woodward is negotiating deals.
Preparing a bid.
We will probably see the usual news that we haven't agreed terms with the club and somebody else snaps him up.
But in that way they keep us happy with the players we're associated with until everything falls down.
So was Bruno last summer and we still ended getting him only in late Jan this year.
Telles is in his last year. I’ve just seen the price is £23m though which is high in this situation. They have to sell and there’s a pandemic on - that fee is dropping considerably final week of the deadline. That’s probably what we’re waiting for if we do want him. He has to quarantine for 2 weeks anyway.
Yeah I think this is bollocks one way or another.
If we are going to sign a LB I would have thought it would be the young Ukranian player that was previously mentioned; Bringing in a player that is nearly 28 on a five year deal is not normally the Manchester United way as far as I can recall.
This will drag on until deadline day probably, with no other holes in the squad addressed.
To be fair, if Pool can get Thiago for £25m when he had one season left on his contract, any club with the capacity to negotiate/handle transfers competently would get him for under £20m.
Feels like transfer buisness is carried out like at a 3rd division club.
Woodward better pull a fecking big rabbit out of the hat.

Not only that, but apparently it's a long term agreement where they pay just £5m per year...!!
Best signing we could do this summer is bring in Liverpool's Directors of Football/negotiating team. We tried playing this game as if it's any old corporate business. It's not, it's incredibly unique and can't simply be learned by being thrown in at the deep end.
We are shite.
Sounds about right,they're gonna leave it to the last minute as always

Lower the price then....
They already have, apparently willing to accept 23m instead of his 36m release clause
Yeah, but if you're the one desperate to sell and worried we won't make a bid, give us a price we wouldn't think twice about bidding.
This whole terms agreed with agent business, I’m absolutely convinced it’s the new like that agents are pushing to journalists to create a buzz around their players. They know full well that United won‘t dispute it publicly because if you begin squashing one rumour you have to do all of them and that becomes a mess when some are true.
We keep quiet on transfer links for good reason and unfortunately these sort of sagas are a consequence of that.

Looks like a Gaitan situation to me.
But we want a structured deal......with ad ons
£5m + £5m for winning prem + £7m for winning CL + £3m Ballon d’or + £3m top goal scorer
Are you suggesting that Porto wouldn't know the difference between agent-created hype and genuine interest?
soooo we arent actually in for him then and just utds board trying to make themselves look busy but actually doing nothing?
Sounds about right,they're gonna leave it to the last minute as always
This has all the hallmarks of a deadline day £40 million deal. After all, we still have the same goons negotiating since the Fellaini signing.
We’ve already seen that there is little contact between clubs up until intermediaries have agreed everything. Porto’s concern could very well be that this United interest is agent generated.
If anything I would rather believe that Porto's concern is that Utd are using them. If Porto and the player have had talks over his contract and the selling price, then there has to have been a genuine approach. Whether there is genuine interest behind that approach is what might be questionable.
Sounds about right,they're gonna leave it to the last minute as always
So PSG aren’t interested and they are trying to use us to bid for him now? Go get fecked Porto
I know right? When will people learn not to buy into transfer stories regarding players playing in Portugal? Basically pay no attention till you see them holding the shirt
United are using them for what exactly?
Convince the fans that there is activity; create a smokescreen for other transfers...
What would be the benefit of convincing fans of transfers that never materialise?
Anyone see a pattern here ? We agree personal terms with the player , then don't talk with the club for a while and then try lowballing the transfer with a low fee- hoping the selling club would agree to it ?
That we tried but oh Porto were unreasonable with the price. Also, I haven't said that this is definitively what is happening, as I did provide a second option.
Why the feck is it needed? Chelsea, Liverpool, City do transfers without smokescreens, and it’s all good and well. You just need to actually sign deals instead of doing nothing
Honestly don't know why anyone believes these random Twitter accounts, surely it's best to wait until something solid is mentioned in the British media before having such a huge debate about it.
Maybe if hes not expected to play every game he might stay fit. He was ran into the ground last season and eventually broke.
I”ve never seen him play so I can’t judge the player,but I”m hoping that he’s someone who can play in both full back positions...
Signing a pretty average LB when we have Shaw as 1st choice and Williams/Dalot/TFM as back up seems a bit odd to me at this stage in the window.
We need to finalise Sancho, or do something for the RW. We need a CB. We need to replace Ighalo. We need to sell a whole bunch of players.
Telles, whenever i have seen him looks average. He will admittedly be better than Williams but he's not what we need to focus on right now.
With his contract ending soon - 23mil seems pricey. But we'll probably pay it cos we are the biggest joke in transfers in world football
