It’ll be interesting to see how the deal is structured, I expect Barca will pay what is owed and we will find some way to fudge a % payment back to Barca that doesn’t fundamentally alter our valuation. No Idea how though.
and you've basically willed this one into existence with your work in this thread
well done.I am so ready for this. Dream signing. Exactly the player we need.

Conductor @Berbaclass, lead the way!
Sounds like a lot of add ins will be included to make up that final figure.
Wouldn't be surprised if we've offered to cover part of those deferred wages within the fee
85 million euros is 71.77 million pounds.
No doubt it gets reported and plastered everywhere as £85 Million
Which breaks down into 55m + the 17m that Frenkie de Jong's owed...
Hmmmm .... you may be onto something ......Which breaks down into 55m + the 17m that Frenkie de Jong's owed...
This is great news. Well played boys, they’ve stormed barcas castle and showed them we mean business. I’m liking RA more and more.

I was expecting friday to be honest.
This is too soon. Kinda ruined it for me gotta say.
We need more plot twists. Nobody mentioned that Pep is a huge fan of his....where are the player switch options with Bernardo Silva.... what ever happened to Chelsea...?

We had to suffer through an endless barrage of shit from the press to get there, but this is finally nearing the finish line. It looks like Murtough was waiting for Barca and De Jong to be at the same place to finally call up Arnold and get this deal done. Wish it was done quicker, but Barca being a shambles is out of United's control.
I gotta say, "yes or yes" is an amazing negotiation strategy

it's clear barca doesnt' want him nor do they want to pay him the 17m he's owed.....he came to United and would be an immediate fan favorite just b/c of his style of playing football. he'd be the best CM we've had since Scholes and Carrick
€85m will surely be the total fee including add-ons ... it's what Barcelona have always asked for. The devil will be in the details of the add-ons, and looks like a compromise was found there.
either way, fecking ecstatic that there's finally some traction here. Absolute dream signing.

"both clubs will now enter the final stage which is trying to convince the player to join Manchester United."
Man I'd rather we sign a player that actually wants to play for us. Try to convince him to play for us? Manchester United? feck that.
Premature efrenkilation
I really dont know what to make of that Romero. I thought he was chatting absolute BS re. Raphinha but seems he wasnt. Yet other times he just seems wrong a lot haha
Messi's big grin plastered on the Hard Rock Cafe next to my hotel was a constant reminder that anything is possible, so carried on drinkingAnd you didn’t hook the club up? Poor form my man!
The deal is done between both clubs and the add ons are settled according to Domenech.
Same, but I still won’t believe it till this one’s on manutd.com
Man, I forgot about Rafael Hernandez. All of the old aggregators are coming out of the woodwork!
It's been de Jong time coming.
I think we are about to find out that the add-ons have become guaranteed cash that cannot be missed, to cover one season of unpaid wages and that will get the deal done. But if he wants to go after all of the money, that can be a secondary matter for FDJ down the track.
Can we spare a moment for Gerard "the deal is not as advanced as you'd think" Romero as he's officially in the mud.
Enjoy! Was my first time there, definitely going to return for seconds.
Our De Jongs shot of too soon frenkly.
Its the total fee which includes the add ons. The upfront fee is about £55m.
United was always going to have to pay the deferred wages and I am delighted that it appears they are. I’m sure is Ten Hag happy too
Spanish source says FDJ doesn’t want to come and he’s staying
Caf says BS
Spanish source says Terms have been agreed
Caf says done dealio

He's been very quiet lately, probably due to Barca's financial plight.
I'm half expecting the player, after all this, to just say "nah, I'm alright where I am, thanks."
I won't get properly excited until I see him signing something or posing for a photo. But oh my god, if this does happen, then...

Allow people to be positive for a change please.
Ducker said last night we have assurances he wants to come so...
