What a transfer window this has been already. It has to be the best post SAF and hopefully we're not quite done

Any excuse to post this again
I'm quite sure this is how it went.
This just in: Varane has a clause in his contract that every player at every top club also has in theirs.
Well how long would it take to inform Varane what the quarantine rules are?
Give him £50 million, I don't give a feck.
About a week.
It just gets better
Pogba signing the contract would round off a lovely week indeed
I know Ornstein is very reliable but there's no way that this is true right??
35M pounds would be an incredible, and quite absurd, steal for someone like Varane...
It’s fair to say the Sancho deal was extremely close but for whatever reason they couldn’t agree on a fee. I don’t remember him ever saying it’s a done deal though.
Nobody is ever 100% correct though obviously things can change quickly in transfers, I don’t think he’s nostradamus just well connected and fed information from certain agents to hype the deals up.
He clearly has a big pull with the younger audience and markets himself very well.
I will be over the moon if that happens.
It just gets better
Why are Madrid being so nice to us?
And to think Madrid wanted 80m to start off with.
They have no money
One year left on his contract, so either this or nothing next summer. We'll get him cheap but lose Pogba cheap for a similar fee this summer.
So its 34m plus bonuses and its spread over a number of years? If that's true that's very good business.
Did not think it was possible for a player of his talent and success to end up at United with how things have been the past handful of years. CB partnership was good with Maguire and Lindelof, but obviously wasn't proper and it could have been upgraded, but didn't think a player of this caliber was available until said player wanted to join. What a signing and at that fee, it's even better!
As Rio mentioned, he still has to adjust to the league, but his quality and mentality will serve him well. Hopefully he can get up to speed and the players around him support him and push him, just like he will do the same.

Historically the clubs have a very good relationship. Most United fans only look to Fergie's bluster over losing Ronaldo and think we hate them.
It really is, but then again he only got one year left on his contract and Real seem to need the cash.
What if he gets overrun by Leeds!imagine he turns up to OT against leeds rocking. this hair style
I wish we’d paid 50% more for Ben White.
That as well. And you're right about Pogba. If we only get 35m though, might as well keep him for a year and push hard for the title this season. Just consider it as a loan fee.
Still cant believe we on the verge of signing Rapha Varane wtf. Sancho and Varane. Its hard to fathom!
Now sell some deadwood, and go all out for Ndidi.

Yeah listen I’ve always acknowledged that things change quickly, but to me Fab gives off a very clear vibe that he’s piggy backing on others for each deal.
On Sancho he even had the outstanding amount of years on his deal wrong, something that somebody that close to the deal would never have gotten wrong, others who were actually connected confirmed it.
He’s always ‘just after’ the news breaks, never the one really leading the charge on a story.
He’s obviously connected in some areas and will therefore be more reliable on some compared to others, but he doesn’t market himself as that, he makes out he knows the inside track on everything. Which is what grinds the gears of some like myself.
But I did say I would stop whinging about him if this one happened so… one more chance Fab x
Is Varane disabled and we don't know it yet?
I'd be surprised if he was on less than Maguire, who I've read is on £250k. Might be wrong though!
Watch somebody in the media try to put a negative spin on this deal compared to the White one when there just isn't any.
This seems almost surreal! He must have really wanted us.
I'll never say an ill word about Woodward again if the reported fee details are true...
£30 million for Rio Ferdinand. It's as if we're back in a bygone era.
It's a good price but players at the last year of their contract go for much cheaper than their real value. Thiago last season went to Liverpool for 22m and he was coming off winning the CL with Bayern.
Hurrah for Stoney confirmation.
Next stage is Craig Norwood and then finally the club itself
