Is it still legit to channel some of the income such as image right to offshore entity to avoid high tax rate?
That I don't know sorry I'm no expert. But I bet clubs like City, PSG must have found a way to pay their players under the table to evade FFP. Surely it's not fair, maybe illegal and not advised imo.

I've edited that post to use 52 weeks instead of 48, which was wrong.
 
feck sake :lol:

Maybe he's thinking about the impact of moving his wife and children to another country? This kind of nonsense winds me up, it's not as simple as just playing for a different team on a saturday.
Pfft, clearly never seen this

A reported wage of a player we haven't even signed. Seems like a massive waste of time.
We're discussing his transfer, that includes his potential fee and wages, which of course very important to United and the transfer itself and you think it's a waste of time?

How about all the talks discussing how he'd perform and what he can bring to us? etc. We should not discuss anything about the transfer, the player because we haven't signed him? That's probably some biggest bollocks and weirdest logics I've seen here since you're questioning the whole existance of the transfer forum.

You better stay away from the transfer forum I think, it's a massive waste of time according to you anyway.
 
If he is still 'unsure ' after us chasing him for so long, we should walk away and focus on players who see it as a privilege to be part of our great club.
Why read into all the press speculation anyway?

The only reason he's contemplating leaving is because they aren't paying him what he wants, not that he doesn't like the club.

If he ends up joining us I couldn't really care what his motives are as long as he's committed.

Potential performances are one thing, but all kinds of sums trying to figure out a made up wage, into different currencies, before and after tax? Just wait till he actally signs then see what he earns.

Maybe he's not, maybe he's thinking of a larger pay check from real, or from another club willing to. None of us can assume to know and make assumptions, that kinda nonsense winds me up.

But more seriously we need a cb and can't afford to wait around till the end of the transfer window, Harry will need an extra rest and will have a late pre season so we will be light at the back going into the season as it is.
 
Yeah seems like this won’t happen unfortunately.

Also seems like Romano knows feck all since he stated that personal terms won’t be an issue if I remember correctly.
 
It’s all part of the dance, Madrid we’re always going to try and make us overpay for him.

Stay strong muppets.
 
Nothing will happen until late next week. It was said he’d have two weeks holiday before sorting out his future - obviously the media are now filling that vacuum with speculative shite. Romano has said three things: He wants a new challenge, we’ll bid at the right time and nothing is imminent.

You should definitely wait till he actually signed and go straight to the Performance Forum and not waste your precious time here I think.

I really wonder why on earth you're here in first place. To deliberately trash and shit on other so you can feel a bit better about yourself and feed your own ego?

Imo something is definitely wrong with you. I strongly advise you to go see a psychologist for the better sake of the caf, the Internet and especially yourself.
 
Probably once he returns from holiday, he would make a decision whether he wants to join on not, the club is aware of this and just started contacts with RM to gauge how much the fee will be and so on, I am certain the club will quickly move on if Varane either decides not to join us or hesitates, because by now, he knows we want him, so it's up to him.
 
If United are in negotiations with Real Madrid, then I fully believe they've got the player's approval to do so.

Yeah not believing all this "reluctant" talk. Most reports say personal terms weren't an issue and he was happy to change.

It feels like press just trying to fill in the gaps while it gets ironed out.

Following these sagas over the years I've noticed United won't go into negotiations with the selling club unless they've got the approval of the player.
 
:(

choo choo?
He isnt a transfer journo. These last few summers have opened my eyes to bluffers. You can tell who drives the stories and who aggregates them together like theyre news.
The VDB story is even rehashed from last week.
 
One report says we have agreed personal terms next report says player is not decided. Fair to say nobody has any clue.
 
If this is true ( Which it probably isnt) then move on.

United should only sign players that want to play for United.
There should be no begging

It’s a load of bollocks as previous tweets have stated that we have already agreed personal terms.

It’s the transfer fee which is being negotiated.
 
Will take a lot more convincing for world class players to sign for United nowadays but I don’t read much into that tweet. Guesswork I think.

Judging by the way you've reacted, maybe take your own advice. Jesus christ.
 
He does not have a bad injury record - granted he isn't Maguire. But if you only look at league matches and european cups - he has averaged about 38 matches a season over the last 6 seasons. And it's safe to assume he has missed some matches due to suspension or different reasons (being rested, being left out of the squad) - so he has probably been injury-free in on average 40 league and european matches over the last 6 seasons.

Or to put it like this - Maguire has played an average of about 35.5 league matches over the last 4 seasons, Varane has played an average of 30,5 - so it's not that bad.

Definitely not as bad as I thought. Thanks for the info.

Nah I'm perfectly fine I don't have weird logics and bollock other for no legit reason. You do mate. Think about yourself and those around you and take my advice.
 
I just don't believe the story that Varane isn't sure about joining us. I don't believe we'd pursure any player under Ole that isn't keen on joining.
 
So we knock down VDB's value even further when he doesn't play at Madrid? Was his signing just some sort of tax dodge or something?
I think Ancelotti will use in him as a #10. Ancelotti will also rotate, so I can see him play plenty of games.
 
Varane isn't worth close to £90M no where near!

£40M for DVB
£20M For Dalot
+ £30M in cash

I think It was 30 plus Dalot and VDB on loan to see if they want to buy him next year and then pay us some money which is not bad idea at all.
