Apparently NBC are reporting that Hummels is a done deal and on his way to Manchester.
Mats Hummels
- Thread starter No.8
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.

I feel like a part of @Sphaero dies every time this thread is bumped 
Think tier source is sport
Yes the article on NBC website says according to reports from Spanish paper Sport:
http://prosoccertalk.nbcsports.com/...-set-to-sign-mats-hummels-in-28-million-deal/
Oh ok I wasn't aware of that.
Ah yes clicked on the article and indeed the source is Sports :

Sorry Guys! I live in NRW, Germany (near Dortmund) and the general feeling is that there is No chance BvB will sell. Subotic would be more likely seen as he really wants to play in England at some stage.
Lets get Subotić then!
Where has this Hummels rumour come from? Surely there is no chance, especially for the figure being touted.
Unfortunatly, he will end up being able to say i told you so.I feel like a part of @Sphaero dies every time this thread is bumped
This one is obviously not going to happen. Not even worth getting drawn into.
Thanks for the update but the general feeling about Evra was he would stay at the club for another season and help Shaw develop, he indeed was a United career man and a legend. Anything can happen and where there is smoke there is fire.
*Except for smoke machines and the Mats Hummels transfer thread.
Jesus Christ you are absolutely relentless in your nonsense. Well played
A random paper in Spain would definitely be the first know the inner workings of a deal between an English and German club, whilst the English club are in the States. Definitely.
I'm under the impression he will be a United player next season and I also think we will get him for a bargain. I first said 30m but if we actually get him for 20m, then that would be daylight robbery.
Can you provide some background info on this? How come you are "under the impression" ? Are you his agent?
And why exactly would Dortmund do that? Where are those rumors even coming from?
This sounds like grade A bollocks to me.
We learned earlier that United and Dortmund are pretty chummy these days, see the following quote. So why wouldn't Dortmund be nice and decide to sell him cheap now that they are best friends with United. Makes total sense to me.

Ah, thanks. That explains it all.
Done deal, obviously. Considering the chumminess of the two clubs it might even be Hummels + 20million to Manchester. Little gifts keep friendships alive.

Just throw a 35 million bid in for him ffs.
Then again David Luiz went for 50million which hasn't done any favours to clubs interested in defenders.
We need to sign a genuine world class centre back with experience if we are going to challenge for the title.

I actually hate Jamie 'ball buster' Jackson. Nonce knows nothing
The fellow Germans in here are weird. What do you expect for an exciting player rumoured to sign for us on an United forum? All doom and gloom I suppose.
They are not all smiles und candy.
Your usage of the German language is ravishing!
So there's zero chance the leak has come from elsewhere? Maybe a Barca rep knowing they weren't going to be able to match the offer from United?
Equally why would a paper make up a rumour about 2 clubs and a player that has no connection to their home nation? It would be like The Mirror writing a big article on Veratti moving to Roma.
Can't see this happening but would instantly take us up a notch in terms of how competitive we could be in the league.
He's probably the most difficult transfer to pull off for us, bordering on impossible due to Dortmund's stance, but I'm getting the feeling he's "The one" the club and Van Gaal are absolutely keen on 100%. Probably why we seem keen for a makeshift move for Vermaelen instead of pursuing any other of the big boys.
"Disclaimer, as with all transfer opinions this is based on absolutely nothing but gut feeling and probably bullshit information."

Chelsea bought Atletico. Let's buy BVB. Hummels, Reus, Bender, maybe Subotić and Piszczek.
Errr.. Could Adidas do us a favour and extract one of their big brand defenders from the evil clutches on Puma ? Sponsor manoeuvring is not an unheard-of concept.
You should see me in the Marco Reus thread!
Wasn't Mitten the one who said he felt Hummels is the closest to whom we may be getting a few weeks ago? This transfer may have legs yet to be fair
Hope not.
I like Hummels, be it said. But I think he's better for Klopp than for us. And I want Dortmund to keep their best players - for the general hell of it. It's more fun that way. Them being muscled out by pure lucre ain't too appealing to me, to be honest. Let Klopp do his thing, see if he can win the Champions League. We ain't even in it this season.
Another thread for the that ain't happening brigade.
He did. Which is the only reason I'll remain hopeful on this. Mitten got things wrong last summer though. He was fairly sure, we are going to sign Fabregas, if I recall it correctly.
What's the probability of signing this handsome chap?
I like Dortmund, but if we could get Hummels then I won't even think twice about how it will effect them. Not that we are getting him of course.
What a strange stance. I could agree if it was another club interested in one of their star players, but your own team??? Definitely with Bestie on this one.
Mitten has said all summer that Hummels is a big target of ours.
