I'd be fecking livid if we spent £16m on an injury prone defender who isn't proven in PL. :mad: Much rather signed a player who is PL proven, like Jagielka or Caulker, even if they cost twice the price. PL proven above all.
 
Sorry, but sportbild.de, goal.com, Daily Fail etc. won't make me believe it not a bit. Still think 0% chance to get him and the fee makes it even more ridiculous!

Jaglieka taught vidic and rio how to defend. FACHT
 
How does a football journalist come up with something like that? It's like he went into a coma in 1999 and only woke up days ago and didn't realise that prices have gone slightly up. With a bit of luck you could tempt Dortmund with a €45m bid next Summer - not a chance this year, not even at €60m.
 
I've not even entertained the notion of him joining.

Are there actually any media outlets with credibility reporting this?
 
The only credible source I can recall has been Mitten - who said at some point that Hummels was high on our "list" whatever that means. But he's never said anything about us actually approaching Dortmund as far as I know. The rest appears to be sheer speculation. And some of the fees mentioned are clearly bollocks. Top rated player, fresh from winning the World Cup (a tournament in which he shone), 25 years old, by all accounts not unsettled at all...sixteen mill? Yeah, that seems logical.
 
Bookies taking no risks on this one....

Hummels 1/6 to join Manchester United this Summer. Has to be something in it... Unless there are just a lot of cnuts chucking money at it.

Means nothing, they've just got to safeguard themselves, so if somethings gains momentum out of nowhere, gotta make it low.
 
£16m for Hummels :lol: :wenger:

:lol:

I'm saying that for months already. The chance for United to sign him this summer is very close to 0%. 20m€ sources will not change anything about it. :lol:

I'd imagine we've made enquiries, but no danger would Dortmund entertain anything under £30m imo.

Don't be silly, why wouldn't you sell us one of your best players, one of the best defenders in the world (and a massive overall influence in the dressing room) for the cost of an average PL player? Bloody Germans....

Haven't thought this was a chance at all. Vidal is more likely I think. Although I'd love Hummels I can't see Dortmund selling, or him even wanting to leave.

Mitten has been saying for some time that United are quite confident of getting him, thinks it's more than just targeting him. Take that as you will though.

The figures being mentioned are obviously completely ridiculous, but none of that came from anyone more than tabloid bullshitters.

I think Di maria is more realistic that Hummels at this point
 
That Jonno fellow (who's friends with some of our players supposedly) said Hummels deal is agreed. I've been muppeting hard for Arturo but this one just seems so far to reach for. €20m is just laughable.

I know he's banned from the twitter thread but surely can post here?





EDIT: if he's tweets aren't allowed at all then I will delete. Don't ban me mods :angel:

There's a reason he's banned. His claims are BS.

When we were linked with shaw and herrera, all I heard from fans, I can't see southampton or bilbao selling at that price, that is the story of united, can't see it happening

Who was saying that? People were worried that we were overpaying for Shaw and I think everyone knew once we paid the buyout we should be able to sign Herrera.

All I am saying is, many had doubts any of those deals would come off, and some seemed shocked we signed either one. Look at the mata signing, some seemed shocked we would sign him
 
Klopp has already rubbished the rumours, this ain't a goer.


“Do you think I would get into a contract with that mob. Jesus Christ, no chance,” said Ferguson. “I wouldn’t sell them a virus.” -- SAF right before selling Ronaldo.

Bilbao did not sell, Herrera (with the money of United) payed his release clause. Concerning Shaw, with all due respect to Southampton, but there is a little difference between an English midtable club and a top 2 team of an European top league, both in terms of standing and finances. You offered around a third of their annual revenue. To put that in perspective you would have to offer Dortmund around 90 Mil. € for Hummels and at that sum the officials would have to consider selling.

I suppose it was never like Ferguson to say one thing and do another, especially in the transfer market.

There was an emphatic no from Klopp when he was quizzed on the Hummels and Reus rumours, this coupled with the fact every single German poster here has declared he'll 100% stay at Dortmund this year would lead me to believe he's going nowhere.

Real paid a world record fee and not fecking 20 million^^

If we pay a world record fee for a defender we maybe have a little chance to get him.

It wasn't right before we sold him, it was 6 months before in response to claims a deal had already been struck.
