Khvicha Kvaratskhelia | PSG agree 70m deal

Where have you pulled this from?
Ratcliffe himself said that we aren’t interested in signing any top players like Mbappe and it’s all about finding the next Mbappe’s.

Things are going to be horrendous over the next few years. I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think will be.
 
Lovely player, but not at all what we need right now. Him going to PSG, Rashford to Naples and Osimhen to us could well be the chain of events about to kick off.

Napoli's highest earner (Lukaku) is on £148k, which would mean United have to either sell Rashford to them for a farcically low fee, or else continue paying for at least 60% of his wages if he goes on loan. Not particularly ideal for us, in fact, under those terms I would rather send him to Arsenal.

Getting a new stadium and aiming to win the title by 2028 won't be done by making things horrendous and not spending big money.

I'd like to think we'll be there for up and coming top players in future, but if the new policy saves us from established top players looking for a final big contract then it's the right approach.

Yup. We had a good window in the summer but we have to do much better than Höjlund and Zirkzee in terms of signing potential.

We just signed Yoro who was the biggestCB prospect in football.
 
You have no idea of his motivations; asserting he’s going there because of money just sounds like sour grapes.

But, don’t take a joke so seriously, perhaps?
I said "if" that's why he's moving. Exactly because I don't know his motivations.

And tbh it isn't much of a joke to throw out "sour grapes" to any post that isn't a deep expression of heartbreak that this long desired player ended up choosing our fierce rivals PSG.
 
What we need is a striker who can actually finish. If this can help facilitate a sale of Rashford to Napoli then we’re in pole position for Osimhen.
 
Disappointing to see him go to that team, but I guess the same can be said by other supporters if he came to United. At least it's not Liverpool.

Ok…..

Kvara 40k to PsG for 65M
Rashford 250k (NoCL wages) to Naples for 50M
Osimhen 230k to ManUtd for 65M - wage increase to 250k.

Win, win, win. We easily comply with PSR and get a striker, Naples gets rid of Osimhen and gets 80M+Rashford.

I don't really feel like whoever signs Osimhen is a big winner
 
Players who go to PSG are bullets dodged. Especially one with his choice of clubs. I don't want to hear about how great Paris can be, from a footballing point of view its about as close as you can get in Europe to moving to a saudi club. You look at somebody like veratti who spent his career there - won 30 trophies and nobody really gives a shit or remembers him beyond his national team. Its a wasteland and speaks to a lack of ambition.

Who would pay the 250k for him to move to Napoli ? Certainly not Napoli.
 
What a terrible move for neutrals, one of the most exciting players wasting away his prime in Ligue 1.
 
I guess they were the only ones to stump up the cash. Kvara and Neves are both young enough to stay there for 3 years and yet to peak, so they can still have a career in a top league, i.e. Barca, Bayern, Real or the Prem.

Hopefully this spending allows us to acquire Nuno Mendes.

PSG haven't exactly made it easy for young players to do that though...

Even without us getting Osimhen this is very good for us even if we lose our on Kvara (not that we are truly interested)

Nuno Mendes to us would be the better 3rd piece here.
 
That's not a very good deal for us then. We need Rashford (and Casemiro's) wages off the books. Saving an extra £650/wk could go a long with to fund the wages of 4 or 5 new quality players.

I would be very surprised if we find a buyer/loanee for Rashford this window who pays the fulls wages for him. Too much of a costly risk for them.
Our best bet, in my opinion, is sending him on loan for 6 months with about 50% wages paid. And then get a good deal in summer.

With Case Hopefully the Saudi rumors work and we can offload him this window

We really have given some stupid wages under the previous regime...
