Their takeover will be sorted by then.

They could play both.
They got Camavingha, not sure how he would fit into the system especially with the evergreen Modric and Kroos doing bits. I think Pogba could also land up there on a free.

Valverde* Camavinga

If Madrid are planning on a front 3 of:
Mbappe ————————-Vinicius
Benzema*

Even in the short term they are going to need more legs in midfield.
Yeah would like to think so, however not sure the Ten Hag project appeals to him
Yeah I fear so too
How does he compare to last summers crush Camavinga?
Currently a better player but perhaps with a lower ceiling.
Ah well he's an upgrade on the current situation
feck it get him in. Embarassing watching Liverpool midfield toy with us.
Didn’t one of ligue 1 fans came here before and said that he’s not a DM?
Not a prayer of getting him
He's more of a DM than Camavinga looked, and Camavinga is a DM.
I think Rennes fan came here and said that Camavinga’s first full season in 19/20 played as a DM but moved to CM in 20/21. The Rennes fan said his 19/20 season was better than 20/21.
Camavinga is not a DM. At least not in the sense of Fabinho, Rodri etc.
They don't need him.
Then it would difficult for us to get him,CL spot hanging, we need multiple positions to fill , tricky.
He doesn't play DM for Monaco, that's not to say someone may view his skillset as ideal for another team as a DM. @Adnan did a good post of what his skills are and why it would make him a good DM.
The same way Delph wasn't a left back or Trent originally wasn't a RB, it depends on how the team is set up and what they can bring to the position in the view of the manager, who has a clear view of what each position should do.
We don’t need a DM. We need functionality midfielders for a pivot. He fits that.
Ok good to hear that we are targetting a player that would make him a good DM. I think I remember you or someone else the one who came here and warned us that United fans will be disappointed when they see Tchouameni is not actually a DM. Let me read Adnan's post.
Think that might have been JP, but yeah - we'll hopefully be set up completely differently anyway.
I think he also posted a guardian article with it.
It's up to how ETH wants to set up, but I think you'll probably be proved right.
This would sadden me given just how much he could change our midfield fortunes at United but I wouldn't be surprised.
He's been linked to them heavily for a while now and they still have arguably the biggest pull in football.
Until someone like Felix Diaz reports it though I'll still hold out a sliver of hope

Not really in the loop with this reliability nonsense but isn't AS known to be unreliable?
Cheeky bid for Valverde if they sign Tchouameni. They are then packed with midfield options, and with World Cup in winter, perhaps gametime would be an interesting negotiation bargain?
Valverde is impossible. He recently renewed and has the highest clause in the team (one billion).
A symbolic amount that obviously nobody is going to pay but that shows how important he is for the future. A cheeky bid for Casemiro?
Please do not, I don't want him anywhere close to us if we're going to challenge for the title.
Care to deepen you statement? Why would such a talented young player not help us in challenging for a title?

Wow Tchouameni and Camavinga is some midfield for the future.
I thought we supposedly now had a structure where the DoF etc chooses the players, not the manager?
It never seems to work out like that though
First Laurens is a fraud. Secondly it depends on the relationship and trust that the DoF has, what a DoF is definitely going to do is identify targets based on team needs and when he has a list of players that he likes, he can ask the opinion of the head coach in order to know which player he prefers. For example if Murtough has a list that includes, Tchouaméni, Rice, Laimer or Phillips, he can ask ETH's opinion.

I’m not going to trust the opinion of someone who can’t even spell Houssem Aouar’s surname correctly and uses it as their username.
I’d love to hear this French football expert explain why.
if we are being strongly linked with Kalvin Phillips from Leeds then it's a good chance we see the writing on the wall for this kid
You're gonna need to mute this one, but a good comp of his defensive work.
Phillips it is then.
We don’t have anyone who has competence to do that, that’s not Murtough’s area of expertise. Have to assume we will be bringing in someone like Paul Mitchell or Rangnick will be given some form of substantial role.
And thirdly, no DOF on the planet would disagree with the signing of this guy if the manager wants him. I've got to imagine that Rangnick, Murtough and ETH are all singing from the same hymn sheet on this one.
Yeah fear he joins Rudiger at Real
Doubt it
