Again, dodging the question. I guess I'll move on. Cheers for your time though.
I have seen him play for Real Madrid only. And according to what I have seen and for me he is not. I would prefer Fred every day over him.
No bother wasting our time with him then
Not seen anybody suggest he’s worth anywhere near that. In today’s market he’s comfortably worth 40-50 Million.Overrating of caballos is just something else, hardly played for Real but according to some he would cost 80-90 mil
Doesn't Stone's information sound like the official line from the club (given he tagged them)?
I'd expect a comment along these lines as they are playing hardball.
Castles, on the other hand, is claiming to have inside knowledge on the progress to date.
Agree. Blind is and always was a much better CB.
If he was as good as you claim Real wouldn't be so willing to sell him after a year...
Especially being a homegrown Spanish talent and all
That bad, eh?
Yeah and looks a good player from what I've seen but not worth anywhere near 80 mil.
Him and Zidane have fallen out. He’s not in Zidane's plans.
He hasn't increased 30 mil in value, but you have to remember that there's a 20-30 mil "United tax" for any player we're interested in.
On that basis, we're looking at a player who's just turned 22, just had an amazing tournament with Spain's under 21's, is highly rated within the Spanish media and has been compared to Thiago on several occasions, and is available in a deal we're we're getting rid of admittedly our best and most creative player, but also a player who's agent has publicly stated is intention to leave, which as far as I'm concerned makes him poison for our dressing room.
If you don't rate Ceballos (or Tielemans) I'd be curious to hear what you want in a young central midfielder, but fair enough. My question is how much better do you think we can do for a player in that position for effectively 50mil? I don't see many other available options.
Not when it is a player Madrid are trying to offload to buy our best player
Literally wasn’t dodging the question but if that’s your response to not liking my answer then fair enough.
I rate both, I don't think either are 50 million euro players. Even then, I think we would need to buy another midfielder to fit either into our team effectively.
Not to forget Ceballos has fallen out with Zidane and real don't want him at all, that in addition to his form for the last two years, I can't see any team including us being mental enough to sign him for that much money. United tax or not, it would be ridiculous.
Madrid should sell Cabellos for 50m if they can and offer us the money instead..
Actually 150m euros might not do it either. No reason to play nice with them.

Facts. People act like a talented player, with suitors and options, is supposed to want to stay at a club in disarray. Clubs get rid of players whenever they are not right for them all the time, players should look after their own careers as well. United has been a pit for some years now.

You forgot to add hipster tax to the value.
I would agree neither are 50mil players, but transfer fees almost never equate to true value. And 50mil is becoming cheaper every season.
I don't care about the cost to be honest, I care about the opportunity. We're basically having our midfield taken out from under us this season with Herrera going for a free (don't get me started) and now the Pogba situation. We need to rebuild fast, and in my opinion the opportunity to get a player like Ceballos right now trumps having to forgo an extra 20 mil in cash for Real. Get Ceballos and suddenly we have a young, talented midfield general with bags of potential and decent resale value if it doesn't work out. Suddenly we have one creative midfielder to buy rather than two, and we can take our time picking the right one (which an extra 20-30 mil would not have helped us do).

Don't know how much of that is true if any of it. Don't know much about Ceballos so can't comment. Would not want Bale as part of the Pogba deal, would only take Bale on loan for a season but not as part of the Pogba deal, as long as he was willing to take a massive cut in his wages, which I doubt he would do. Would not want Courtois when we have De Gea . Would take Casemiro plus about £80m. Think that would be fair. Real need to come in with a realistic offer.

That doesn't mean we should sell under value, however pit we are right now.
I'm just arguing for arguments sake and to pass time to be honest. I don't really care about the price either
Would be interesting to see how he would work in our team, I definitely think we would need to sign one more midfielder with him in the team. Thought the same about Tielemans. They would need someone behind them.
Snap their hands off if true.
Nobody has said he's worth 80m
50 million for ceballos? Madness. He’s bang average and would flop if he went to a big english club.
I could see a club not counting these as offers. Bale isn't for starters, he has a 54 million wage bill to pick up and I can't see any club in Europe taking him on for free and paying the rest of his contract it's that huge, it's a negative offer and at best a flat zero offer, it's just a low amount of cash.
Also player exchanges and swaps rarely happen due to them not wanted by the club being offered to and the player is not interested either more often than not. Courtois left England to be near his kids who lived in Madrid while he was at Chelsea, he isn't coming to Manchester. Ceballos a young Spanish national I doubt wants to come to England after moving to Madrid but he's the only one that Madrid could say we'll ask if the player want to move if you're interested which 99 times out of 100 the club isn't, nor the player
huh?Nobody has said he's worth 80m

Scrolling through this page would have been a good idea before commenting........ not sure what was funny.Nobody has said he's worth 80m
For 18mil we need to get this done ASAP. Would be a great cheap buy.
One person. Apologies.
The simple solution is to make a dedicated lower leagues transfer twitter thread.
you said no one and quoted with a laughing smiley the person responding to that 80m claim. I'd say that was a pretty big fail
He scored 1 goal all of last season, against us of course in a thrilling 1-1 draw.
Edit: then snapped the corner flag in celebration for those who don't remember. McTominay scored our goal and we wasted many of chances.
Typical
Should probably make a foreign one too, or even better break it up. Have a Spanish transfer tweets thread, a French one, a German one etc. etc. right?
Meant 20 years old. Not 20 million. At his current age I just don't see the point in buying him, even for a small amount.
Must say I've only seen Cellabos in a game or two for Madrid and he looked bang average. Personally I've not seen any highlights etc to understand the hype around this player. We should have signed Tielemans and missing out was an even bigger disgrace than not even tabling an offer for Ndombele.
