Will cost far more than £30m.
It's a smart strategy by Woodward.
Barca targeted verratti and psg responded by signing a player the manager did not want to see leave.
We target mbappe and psg 'punish' us by signing mourinho wet dream.

Im scared that you actually half believe this theory.
You say this as if we don't have 3 or 4 players who want to play on the left and absolutely none who want to play on the right.
Would be a good target although he hasn't kicked on since his breakout season. Would be an upgrade on what we have without being an instant world beater that spells the end for Shaw
If we could sign him then the answer is yes. But we probably cant. If we could then we could let Martial go like he wants
What does your edit mean? Press got a whiff of united transfer dealings today?
Looks like The Mirror is fiending for that sweet, sweet United traffic.
Can't see us targeting Gayà — he recently renewed his contract till 2023, and Valencia slapped on a €100million release clause for good measure:
Makes no sense, for FFP...
If they have an obligation to buy Mbappe this summer then £160m on his, say, 5-year deal would cost PSG £32m next season in the financials. To immediately sell him for Martial + £80m would recognise an £80m loss immediately in the financials. It would be a stupid thing to do to fix an FFP hole.
To sell him for anything other than above £128m would leave them worse off for the upcoming year. In fact the best thing they could do probably do with Mbappe is bang him on a 10-year deal and reduce his depreciation value in the books.
There is no loss at all if they value Martial at £80m, which is not completely out of whack in a world where Mbappe is valued at £160m.
Some thing like that but seem like they don't what really is so all seem like guesses. Last few days it was peaceful.
What, you wouldn't mind getting a much much better player than Martial? No, I wouldn't mind either
This is purely speculative and I’m not claiming any kind of United ITK stuff here but I think there could be a degree of substance to the Mbappe story. I’ve got a Scouse mate who speaks to people right at the top of LFC most days and he mentioned a couple of weeks ago that they’d heard he was potentially available and were looking into it.
I’ve got no reason to doubt what he’s saying, he has a spotless track record tbf and Mbappe becoming available is the sort of thing a club cannot turn down, you would expect both us and City to move for him, alongside probably Real Madrid which would clearly price a club like Liverpool out of it. It’s probably nothing but has certainly caught my attention more than most stories the Mirror publish. Its definitely interesting that this story has come out as Liverpool are beginning to be linked with Fekir again...

Well it will be a loss. They don't even need Martial. He is a LW and they already have Ney and Draxler. He can't replace Cavani. So why just don't ask £160m.
Anyway, if he goes somewhere, it will be RM.
Besides, this transfer window is really quiet. Maybe we go back to the times where players settled in a big club didn't move as it's seems to be the case for Eriksen, Hazard, Dybala or Kane but even for the youngest ones there is nothing exciting: are Brandt, Odriozola or Grimaldo also going to stay ?

*If* he wants to leave and PSG plan to sell him for half of what they bought him for (+ and inferior player in Martial, even though I love martial), he would be wanted by any team in the world. Including his dream side Real Madrid alongside his idol Ronaldo. Didnt say we are undesirable, but we arent in the top 5 when it comes to Mbappe I'd bet.Yeah I forgot United aren't a very desirable club to play for anymore..
My comment only pertains to the financial or book loss, not to footballing aspects. There is no book loss for PSG as long as Martial is valued at £80m.
I agree Mbappe is going nowhere, PSG aren’t daft.
I'm scared that you think that's a serious post.
One thing we can squash is that, Real are his “dream” club. By all accounts, he had the chance to go to Real before PSG & turned that opportunity down. IIRC, he might have even turned down approach from them when he was younger, to progress at his then club? I could be wrong about that.
I’m not saying he wouldn’t chooseReal over us, however, he and his team seem the sort that will look at what’s best for his career, rather than just going to the club of his “dreams”.

What's interesting is that the article says "United would be prepared to sacrifice unsettled winger Anthony Martial in part exchange, a player they value at around £80m. That would see United having to part with £86m to secure the deal with Monaco if PSG pull the plug on their agreement with the Monte Carlo based club". That suggests that we'd be offering Martial+£86m to Monaco, not PSG, as it'll be in the case that PSG don't buy Mbappe in the first place. The thing is, I thought PSG had an obligation to buy, so not sure how accurate that is.
I'm afraid you're wasting your time if you're looking for quotes or sources. Not even a Di Marzio scoop has quotes or sources.
Who are the top 5 then?
Well seeing as you need a right-winger then yeah, I don't see the problem.
Mbappe is also better than Martial as a player and miles ahead of him mentality wise.
Not that this is going to happen...
I can't fathom anyone who would question if we need Mbappe when we have Martial. Pretty much confirms people have lost their sanity over Martial.
Why would Martial go back to Monaco? Makes no sense at all.
3 pages of people talking about a mbappé deal based on an article written by mike the mailman. The best part is everyone knows it's a complete bs fabrication, a nonstory...and still discussing merits and options of how it could go, hypothetically. Never change you muppets. Beatiful, beatiful muppets
If there is talks of reviving the Fekir to Liverpool deal then I'd imagine he's just name dropping to get a higher price. I'd expect his price to have taken a hit since he didn't pass the medical in Liverpool.
A top right winger should be a priority now. Pulisic or Bailey would be nice.
The trash journos will now see this and link him to us
Will he fit in with the RedCafe tactics and do you think we need a new coach? Actually who is our coach?
Whoever our coach is we will need to replace him to get the most out of this player who no one knows about.
They wrote on their website it is according to Paris united. Should I take the tweet off?
Don’t really see Paris United knowing and all the Italian journos being in the dark. This is false until they get in on it.
I'll delete it. Someone posted the 'story' last night
Mbappe is absolutely amazing player and there is absolutely no chance psg sell him.
