2 years and 2 months, but still. We have enough talented youngsters.

I have to admit that before yesterday, I've never even heard of this guy... let alone seen him play
or as executive vice-chairman... or manager
Hope the lad can do the job for us.
A young talent who, no doubt, will be helped through from the start having a fellow Uruguayan teammate, Cavani at United if it all works out?

looking at his pic, he's quite pretty so I imagine Woody will think he can sell some posters in the superstore!
we have no up and coming RW in the academy/u23s these days. Seems all the right footers want to play on the left
OK, but certainly not on the right wing we don't.
Chong has been forgotten about.
There is no way you are anything like the only one.
His name sounds sexy as well. Pellistri. Sounds Italian. We can pretend we have another one of those bc we ve had a lot of success with em
Elanga is roasting fullbacks on the right as well
Amad Traore looks a lot more exciting. If one falls through please be this one
By the sounds of it we're going for both. Although I think the Traore one is only meant to be happening in January and this guy is coming in immediately.
2 goals in 30odd games in the Uruguay league. Unless he’s got about 20 assists that’s piss poor. That’s probably league 1 level, if that.
Elanga is a left sided forward
There's not much point judging him until he gets a chance. He's going to cost about £7m so it's a relatively low risk transfer. He's widely considered to be one of the best talents in South America so he must have a little something about him.
Are we signing this lad or not?
From Simon Stone, just came up on the BBC.
Says "if done in time" which doesn't fill me with a great deal of confidence
So if we sign him and another established winger means we will not be signing Sancho in the future.From Simon Stone, just came up on the BBC.

Not by Cheech

Just watched Youtube on this guy and I have to say, at 43 I am am more exciting prospect first 4 minutes show him falling over
He doesn’t have a name that sounds like a successful footballer.
Hasn't one of the journalist hacks said that our South American scouting network has been noticeably increased in the past few years?
As a side note, I love that Penarol's first choice goalkeeper is a Uruguayan called Kevin Dawson

According to Wikipedia..... 1 goal in 30 games
Have we signed him now?
Hence the ”as well”. He mostly starts on the left but i don`t think he looks unnatural attacking from the right
What's the status of this deal now in light of the Traore transfer?
Signing both apparently.
Will he be part of our first team squad?
Any reports on what the release clause was?
Reported to be a 10m euro release clause job.
Really don't think we're that desperate yet. Will be 3rd or 4th choice at best at the moment.
It was Dollars. So 7.7m Pounds. That is half as much as James
Hope this lad goes well for us all and has a great future with United.
I am also muchas éxitos. Let's have a look at him.
I am late, but seriously, who is Facundo Pellistri?
Kid must be buzzing that he's signing same day as Cavani.
The next Messi.
