Probably not, but it's got to be worth a go. Juve are trying to put together some kind of multi-year loan with hardly any money upfront - we can surely blow that out of the water.

Do we not already have Donny to replace Pogba? I mean he barely played last season so he's certainly a top candidate to take most of Pogba's minutes along with some youth prospects maybe?
Anything close to €80m would be an amazing deal for us. That would be nearly double what I expected us to be able to get.
Yes it’s rather damning of our recruitment in the DM position.
He’s not Kante, never has been, never will be. He needs and has always needed to be partnered with a top DM.
This being news to some at this stage is embarrassing.
The #AFC suggests Aresnal.
First of many young, talented players to come in this summer I’m sure, very pleased for £8m.

£8m is a bargain
There's nothing new in this, but Spurs' hard stance is why City aren't so keen on signing Kane this summer.
From here:
That's pretty obvious given that Spinazzola is out for a long while.
At 191cm Varane is their tallest defender by far. 5cm taller than their 2nd tallest. It helps to play at least one tall defender. Still possible Madrid will up their offer to keep him.
5 cm is neither here no there. ask my missus.
Official: Sandro Tonali signs for Milan from Brescia, signing a 5-year contract.
She tells me every Saturday night
I've seen Tonali sign for so many teams in FIFA Career Mode, I forgot he was still under contract at Brescia 
Sounds a bit spoilt!
I will.
€12.5 million spread over a 100 years no doubt. He looked every inch a world class DLC prospect at Brescia. To be fair if he makes the step up at Milan he’ll still be attainable and he didn’t look anything special against us if I remember correctly.
He’ll be coming back to us at 23 on 40k a week having just gotten his championship experience. We should be selling with a buy back.
We'll see if there's a purchase option in that deal if it concludes. A straight-up loan is a good way to build up some value, but at this point, Chong basically has no chance of playing for United.
You mean Matic and Schneiderlin? The problem at United is not recruiting in the DM position. For example United did not get Idrissa Gueye for £8m when Villa were relegated. We also let Herrera go for nothing, and we try to convert players into CDMs rather than buy them.
Yes the same way a CB needs players around him to defend effectively. That's just general, bog standard, squad building. Watch PSG put a decent DM with him, just like France, just like Juve. Just us that thinks can do everything on his own and ignore his weaknessesAh, so he DOES need a spesific team built around him? Glad we could agree on this
Good level for him assuming he starts. Want to see how he deals with a physical league. Talent is there but needs to show he can perform when he doesn't have loads of time on the ball.
Bayern at it again.
The long-term effect of the Neymar transfer - some players are now essentially unaffordable.
I had not seen much of him at all before this tournament, but he seems very highyl rated so surprising if they do.
I think the piece is telling mentioning that Italian clubs cant afford him possibly....when he is £40m odd, not a huge huge signing. I think like the big Spanish clubs struggling, now is a good time to be targeting Serie A. I know the league is still pretty poor in comparison to glory days, but there are a lot of very good players there. The vast majority of this Italian squad are still in Serie A though ageing, we have also seen several Atalanta players excelling in the tournament. I dont follow Serie A strongly enough now to know the players well, only really watch European games and the odd games of the top sides, but sure there are some very good talents outside of the Milans and Juve worth looking at and U21 Italians for a lot of premiership clubs? i hav eenjoyed Atalanta especially this season, think all the defenders look good, especialy ROmero and they are clever up front as well too but are all older players.
Yeah we've been awful at securing a top DM. It's the one reason I'm not happy about Pogba leaving because you know he's going to be partnered with a decent DM elsewhere and they will get the best of him.
McFred are not the answer. It needs addressing, should be one of our absolute priorities.
