Shame he's leaving, but can't really turn down an offer like that.

This could have serious implications for the Aouar deal though...

After reading what the Brighton supporters had to say about him in "ask the opposition" I'd be surprised they'd let him go that cheaply. They should retain him for a year or two and then sell him to United for three times that price.

Absolutely, he's adored at Brighton and hasn't even been in the team that long. Real feeling that he can get even better with more and more football under his belt.
So those figures do seem laughably low right now.

Yeah, that's quite a steep price that Leicester are paying for Fofana. He's not been that bad, but he's only broken through recently.

would fit in with average players like Maguire, Shaw, Martial and Rashford and co.

What's your point? Are you his agent?

In my opinion he is average. There is a reason he plays at Bournemouth.

You can write an entire essay but you would not convince me Brooks is the calibre of players United need to get to the top.

Average player.
 


Translation:
Hertha Berlin made a new offer for Jeff Reine-Adelaide: 25 million Euros without bonuses. No contractual agreement between the player and the club. Rennes warned OL this morning of their desire to delay [an offer for the same player].

Yeah, they'd be better off waiting a season and seeing if the market is different next summer. Might have the Premier League big boys throwing money at them. In any case, Bayern appear to be looking for a cheap young right back option.

My point is just he is average as the ones I mentioned, which is why United is so far from top teams.

He is not on same level as Rashford Martial etc.

He is a Daniel James level player.

Thats why he is at Bournemouth

Given how Pirlo sets up his team, Aouar would be a great fit. He likes his midfielders to contribute at many areas (deeper, out wide, higher up), and Aouar would be great for that. When Arthur came on, he wasn't just fixed to the deeper midfield areas; he was picking the ball up out wide and contributing to play from wider areas. It was the same with Bentancur and McKennie.

Yeah, would be a great purchase for them and carrying on rejuvenating that ageing squad. Probably a more exciting prospect than Arsenal, though I must confess, I've liked Arteta from the moment he joined them.

Good luck getting a free run at him two years in a row. Especially if we don't finish top 4

Can’t see football clubs finances improving over the next 12 months. Including ours of course.

Dortmund will be selling him for a lot less after this season.

Depends which clubs you are talking about. The clubs owned by former KGB agents, foreign states etc will have money to spend. The clubs being used to fund Tom Brady's Tampa Bay contract might not.

But he wants to join us...

I guess it depends just how much he wants to come here. If he is dead set on coming to United great, an extra year should be fine. But he hasn't exactly had his agent throwing chairs around the boardroom Raiola style.

If we take a step back this year or don't finish top 4, im not sure he comes next year if he has other options. Then again, im just a bullshit on the internet who knows feck all.

Don't think they'll be in the Premier League next season.
 
United have submitted their first offer for Jadon Sancho.


EDIT: Some added context

I think they will. Good manager. Have a striker who actually scores goals. Look well coached (so different from before he arrived). Think they'll stick around.
 
The sale of Ousmane Dembélé to Manchester United that Santi Giménez advances (@acaradeperro) in AS they have confirmed it to me from the player's environment. The operation would close at around 75 million euros, although it is necessary to finish specifying how much in cash and how much in bonus.

 
Manchester United contacted Barça and the surroundings of Ousmane Dembélé, after failing to sign for Jason Sancho (Borussia Dortmund). At first Barça said no but economic needs and Ronald Koeman's yes decided. Trincao and Pedri will be alternatives.

Would cost a lot in terms of transfer fee and wages. All I know about his Barca career is that he is constantly injured and supposedly has attitude problems. Sounds like an amazing signing.

I doubt there is much in this though.

Good to see we finally put our request for a discount in writing.
 
Translated summary of the Tweet: Saint-Etienne confirm their agreement with Leicester for Wesley Fofana's sale.
