Lukaku agreed to slash those significantly, to around ~180k a weekLukaku just went for £30m. I refuse to accept we can’t get rid of him for £40m. Lukaku’s probably on bigger wages too.

You severely overrate this dude, my friend. I can’t imagine him ever be motivated, let alone extra motivated.I reckon Sancho could potentially compromise come next summer considering he will have a year left on his contract (if we don’t extend for another year).
Sancho will no doubt be extra motivated to do well since he needs to win another big contract elsewhere afterall.
Looks like he might be heading out on loan with an option to buy
I think Juve don't want to, and won't, play £50m for Sancho. We need him out of the club and that horrendous contract off our books. I think Juve will try and lowball us with Loan plus Obligation with Conditions to cover themselves should he fail to perform. I think we just need to take a couple of players they value at £50m and see if we can get some squad depth, at least and avoid taking the PSR loss.
Literally no point in an option to buy because no club is ever gonna take that option.
Swap deal with chiesa
He absolutely is on ridiculous wages. Even if it's 250k; however, it supposedly more. He is a 60k player based on what he has shown so far. We had to subsidize his wages to play for BVB last half of the season and will have to do the same again to move him to Juve.He’s not on ridiculous wages. He’s on about £250k a week. Like you said with Felix, there are players similar to him that are getting shifted on. Sterling is also about to be sold I’m not sure why Aston Villa weren’t proposed as a club Sancho could be sold to, considering they have Champions League football. Newcastle too, no Europe but they are in need of a right winger and are very ambitious.
Juventus should be able to afford 40mill, right? Please
Italians plead poverty when it comes to us
From Juventus? Chiesa, easily, if he accepts normal wages - he'd still be by far the best RW option you'd have on the team - and Fagioli(demand to have control over his electronic devices so you make sure he's not betting on sports again)Which of their players would you take for depth?
That guy - Koopmeiners - was actually the second best midfielder in serie A last season, has been amazing for several seasons, is one of the most complete midfielders around, and is still significantly cheaper than Sancho, because the agreement on wages is for around £160k a week. He's also been a priority signing for them - read: strategic, a sign-at-all-costs player, and they still haven't managed because they genuinely might not have the money needed.Didn’t Juve have a bid for €50m rejected for a player from Atalanta recently. Can’t be that poor. €50m+ 5m add on we would take that for Sancho right?
Sancho is a gamble and at this point a luxury buy for anyone.That guy - Koopmeiners - was actually the second best midfielder in serie A last season, has been amazing for several seasons, is one of the most complete midfielders around, and is still significantly cheaper than Sancho, because the agreement on wages is for around £160k a week.

Sancho is a target of opportunity
Swap for Locatelli would be more beneficial.Swap deal with chiesa

Next year his minimal value will drop further and perhaps clubs other than the wealthiest ones could possibly take the bet at 20-25m€.

In the right system, with the right manager he can flourish. Though alot depends on how much he wants it....
It's a tough one for the club because we're still living with the idiotic decision of paying him such a massively inflated salary.
We can be critical of the club for accepting a loan with an obligation to buy, but what's the alternative? Have him around the squad, spreading his negative influence with his half-arsed approach and poor attitude, seeing his value plummet day-by-day because he's not even in the squad each week.
I have an inside line on Sancho, and a former exec. at United (very senior) said he's the laziest, most unprofessional player he'd seen at the club - and that must be saying something.
AgreedHe needs to go either way. We can't have any toxicity in the dressing room this season. Things seems positive at the moment and I'd like one god damn season where it stays that way.
