What other options? We're very thin up top.
650K per week. Wow
- Reminder: contract expires this summer
- Both the player & Real Madrid are willing to extend the contract.
- Modric reduced his wages last season by 10% (€12.5M to €11.25M) in support of the club during the pandemic.
- Real Madrid want to reduce Modric's wages further, whilst Modric's camp wants the wages to remain the same if not return them to the pre-pandemic levels.
He's referring to the desired profile of a new midfielder and isn't hinting at a new signing on our end.
In a perfect world, I agree. A front four of Sancho, Nkunku, Anthony and Bruno would be incredible. Though I’m not sure we could afford both Nkunku and Antony and still adequately address midfield. However, Nkunku feels like one of those players that should be signed and worry about positional fit later. Would rather have him than Antony, even though we do need a left footed RW more. Have a feeling if he goes to a rival we’ll be regretting it for years.
Sounds like Tchouameni would be perfect..
Haidara is 175cm/5`9, isn`t that pretty much normal size for a midfielder?

This is highly speculative re: Matic. Unless they think it's Garner or Rice. Those two are at least over 6 feet, but there's really no identifiable player like Matic who is that tall within that position.
It's gone from Kamara, Phillips, Rice, etc. It's a total under the radar type signing of a Sander Berge type player.
Umm... what?
Kante says hi!
But can he give it up high?
What's Fellaini doing these days?
If Ronaldo decides he has had enough, we might have no strikers. Martial is sh**, Rashford is sh**, Cavani is going, Greenwood is a goner. That leaves Elanga who is young and has looked lost lately.Oh yeah our recruitment strategy has definitely improved under Murtough and Fletch

Just give us Jacob Ramsey
Yeah City could win the lot with him sadly, mind you it's better than that mob down the East Lancashire doing it.
Oh yeah our recruitment strategy has definitely improved under Murtough and Fletch
once they decided on the size of the next midfielder they got straight on the blower to skysports Germany to let them know
You believe everything you read from random journalists don’t you?Oh yeah our recruitment strategy has definitely improved under Murtough and Fletch
With Alaba already having left and Lewa in the process of doing so, Bayern in urgent need to refill their twat agent supply
Umm... what?
Kante says hi!
And Keane, Scholes, & Robson. Size becomes a detriment in midfield, technique, mobility, & aggression should be the priority.

Of course Bayern tie up to certain stars with minimal to no fuss. Can you imagine if we went for either of those two?
No fuss now, but with Raiola as the agent then you just know its a ticking time bomb, I'd rather miss out on "future star players" if we got to miss out on dealing with that fat cnut.
We want as many on the subs bench as possible.
Imagine a front four of De Gea, Tom Heaton, Dean Henderson and Sam Johnstone
Considering the prices of some other players we are apparently interested in 60m for Nkunku would be a bargain. At least he is a genuine top player unlike the other players being suggested for similar prices.
Partial translation + more (source of both this Tweet + the article above: the Die Dortmund-Woche podcast):
Other key info: Bensebaini has told Dortmund that he wants to leave this summer.
Bensebaini was originally linked to Dortmund two days ago by Santi Aouna of Foot Mercato. Ruhr Nachrichten also reported on Dortmund's interest yesterday, stating that Dortmund are interested but don't see him as their first option.
Not sure what you call no fuss as we've been hearing about this for a few weeks. But I guess it's just easier to moan about one's club.
