Don't get too excited. We are all know Inter wants him. The issue is his wages unfortunately. If Sanchez refuses to take a pay cut, this ain't happening.
I read somewhere that he has a deal with Villa that they will sell him for 40mil.
Why would BVB help us develop our player that doesn't belong to them?

Manchester United dreams of conceding 5 goals a game due to having no defensive midfielder!
That was only Januzaj's fault according to Tuchel and Van Gaal had problems with him too.Because them loaning and developing Januzaj for us worked out so well...
Read somewhere they'll consider a swap deal. Interesting. Wouldn't mind a player from inter.Don't get too excited. We are all know Inter wants him. The issue is his wages unfortunately. If Sanchez refuses to take a pay cut, this ain't happening.

We seem to be the only club who are given these ridiculous valuations for players. For anyone else the price would be half that.
We are the only fanbase which goes crazy over any above average English players.
A lot of our fanbase will justify spending the same money on Grealish as what Chelsea will play for Havertz.
Grealish vs Havertz
Age 24 vs 21
7goals vs 12goals
16 chances vs 30 chances
Grealish wins on yellow cards 8 to 3.
Our fanbase needs to stop muppeting purely based of nationality.
What does chances mean because every stat I have seen has him much higher than 16. He also plays for a far worse team than havertz.
He will probably at least double his wage (from 70 to 140 seems feasible enough considering what we already managed to clear out). The extention offer seems to be under that so money would be in our favour. If we get EL through the FA Cup i can see the negotiation ending up very close to that release clause. If we lose this weekend, i think he'll probably stay put unless an other english club drops a $ bag.Unless he's getting double or triple his current wage, why would Partey want to swap perennial Champions League contender and one of Spain's best clubs for Arsenal? That's a pretty substantial step down.
From all I’ve read, Grealish created about 2.7 chances per 90 vs 2.4 for Havertz. Grealish also plays in a league with far better teams ergo better defenses than the BuLi (also apparent just seeing the games). Moreover, he’s “PL proven” which (as a club we have bitter experience of this) does count for a fair bit.I think these are big chances created.
Playing for a worse team goes both ways as far as non-assist stats go.
You can ball hog as much as you want, take every setpiece and so on to pad up your absolute stats as an attacking midfielder.
No one has said they’d want him for that much money. The majority have even called 50 a bit too much, so no, I don’t think a lot of our fan base would justify that. Maguire has been one of the better defenders in the prem this season and every united fan is aware that we paid too much.We are the only fanbase which goes crazy over any above average English players.

Thanks for the correction. I'll edit my post and add your response to it.It is the opposite: Bernardeschi signed to Jay Z and is Napoli that wants to manage his own players image rights. There is a joke in Italy on Napoli contracts, 300 pages long on image rights details.
Havertz is also younger so more room for improvement.From all I’ve read, Grealish created about 2.7 chances per 90 vs 2.4 for Havertz.

I’m not saying Grealish will definitely be better but we’re trying to boost depth and Grealish is a ready article for about 50 Min whereas Havertz could well take time to settle and would cost a heck of a lot more.
Note that everyone has been saying 80 Mn would price Grealish out of a move and no fan I’ve seen has jumped up to say, “No! Pay what it takes” - and that’s the price Chelsea are happily paying for Havertz. So I’m not certain what you’re upset about.
Milik has been linked away from Napoli for a while, but now his links to Juve are strengthening.
I thought it was taboo for Napoli to sell to Juve?
Especially after Higuain?
Don't worry -- it's Miguel Delaney. You know more about who United are actually trying to sign than he does. And the same goes for anyone else with a working brain.I'm not convinced by him at all. Rather we looked elsewhere.
They sell players to rivals over there pretty regularly. Think they don't give a feck in the end to be honest.
True I just seem to remember the Napoli fans being appalled that they sold Higuain. (I thought it was for the release clause as well). Dont think Juve could care less as they get what they want
In what sense? All the talk has been about signing both, not one or the other.I reckon Grealish is the Morata to Sancho’s Lukaku.
Ah fair enough, for a second there I forgot you had Pepe and Auba technically plays on the wing too.Arsenal can't spend 40M on another speedy winger, way more urgent problems elsewhere. I don't think he'd want Leicester and Spurs could be a good fit if he doesn't mind Mourinho. Would Spurs spend that on someone with no resale value ?
Woodward doesn't know anything about footballNot happening as we know there'll be more competition for Sancho next summer.
United making their plan B known in order to put a bit of pressure on Dortmund I would guess.
Conversely — we’d be in an even stronger position if we keep our progression up? Solidify top 3 (by being less than 33 points behind Liverpool) and give a good showing of ourselves in the CL?Not happening as we know there'll be more competition for Sancho next summer.
You don’t need to defend the honour of German football in every single post you make, you know?I can totally see Zorc and Watzke going 'Shhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiittttttteeeeeee, they're going to buy Coman. Let's quickly lower our demands!'. Uh huh...
I wonder if there's Liverpool fans on a Bayern message board somewhere constantly sticking up for us.

Really hope we do wrap him up this window though because you're right.
