Fernandinho also Tweeted out a message indicating that, despite what he said in the press conference, he's still fully focused on City and will see off the season before formally deciding his future.

Wow, that's a great deal for Leipzig. Vandervoordt will get ample time to develop further, and by then, Leipzig will have a very good keeper.
We're all praising Vandervoordt based purely on his FM development, right?
I've watched the Belgian league for the past couple of seasons and saw a good bit of Vandervoordt. This season's been a bit more of a struggle as the streaming service that I subscribe to shows way fewer Genk games, but I've seen enough of him to be convinced that he'll be a very good keeper at the very least.
Nah
Fair play. I'm shameless enough to admit that I know him solely from FM, but my word, what a player.
I think these would actually be our first Raiola signings ever. Great to get finally in on the circus. Then stock up with another "Greedy Piranha" client in Nkunku
First time I saw Bensabiani play I thought it would be a matter of time before bigger clubs came knocking. Surprised it took so long.
First piece of good news for an entire year.
Let's fecking go
They'll make it official after Pool will pummel us at Anfield to spin and raise the positive vibes

Grant is going and possibly Henderson, can’t see him hanging around
And we are linked with Sam jOhnstone for £10m, ludicrous. leipzig make a lot of very good young signings. Onl seen him twice, but he has an abundance of ability and presence in the box. Really think he will be a GK with a big fee on his head long before that Leipzig contract expires, would have been a great replacement for Henderson, another quality young player we should have been in for, poor

Another one but it's dominating the news at the moment.
Manchester United have agreed a three-year deal for Erik ten Hag to become their next manager with the move now “99 per cent” completed.
An announcement is planned next week, following the Dutch Cup Final on Sunday, that the 52-year-old is taking over at Old Trafford. The deal will have the option, weighted in United’s favour, for a fourth year. All that appears missing is the final signatures but they are clearly believed to be a formality.
Sources close to the negotiations have told Telegraph Sport the paperwork is going through to complete the move and confidently added that “everything is now agreed”.
As reported last week United have settled on Ten Hag as their first-choice ahead of Mauricio Pochettino who had been the clear favourite after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked last November. Pochettino is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the campaign.
Ten Hag’s personal terms were quickly agreed last week although there have been further negotiations over the framework under which he will work at the club.
Contrary to suggestions Ten Hag has never demanded full control on transfers, having never had that at any of the clubs he has coached, and he is comfortable working with a director of football.
However, Ten Hag does want to have a significant say in signings and departures which is not a problem at United who granted all their previous managers the right to veto any deal. Sources have been angered by reports that he is demanding more than this.
Understandably Ten Hag has also been keen for United to outline how they see the club operating once he arrives and this is likely to include the role being offered to Ralf Rangnick who will step down as interim manager at the end of the season.
Rangnick has signed a two-year deal to be a consultant at United although the exact remit was kept vague until a new manager was appointed. Rangnick has only recently been consulted by United on who should take over but he was not asked to make a particular recommendation.
Ten Hag will stay in charge of Ajax until the end of the season with their final league game away to Vitesse on May 15. Ajax are on course to retain the Dutch title although they are only four points clear of PSV Eindhoven, who they also face in this weekend’s cup final, with five games to go.
Ajax will be due around two million euros in compensation given Ten Hag has one more year left on his contract with the Amsterdam club but clearly, this will be a formality for United.
Although Ajax have a good relationship with United – their chief executive is the former goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar – the club has been increasingly sensitive to talk around their coach and have even taken the unusual step of banning English reporters from attending press conferences in the run-up to Sunday’s game.
Ten Hag’s intention was always to conclude a deal with United although there has been renewed interest from RB Leipzig, who considered trying to hire him before they brought in Domenico Tedesco last December, in the last few days. That has come as a surprise in Germany given Tedesco is generally regarded as having done a good job, but sources insist the interest is genuine. However, it may also have been to try and hurry United along in finalising the deal which is the view within Old Trafford.
Ten Hag seems likely to bring his assistant Mitchell van der Gaag with him. Given Ten Hag’s lack of Premier League experience, it is thought it would be valuable to also have someone who has had experience of playing or working in England.
Robin van Persie, the former United and Holland striker, has been linked with a role as has former assistant manager Steve McClaren. However, although McClaren has spoken to Ten Hag he is not believed to be in the running and was only being consulted to ask his advice.
Another former player Jaap Stam, the ex-Reading manager, has put his name forward by admitting he would be interested in a position if it was on offer.
“In principle, I am open to any role at Manchester United,” Stam told Voetbal Primeur. “I have enjoyed working and living there, and I owe a lot to the club. “If I can help Manchester United in any way, I’m open to it, provided it’s a role that suits me.”

SJ is out of contract, he will be free this summer
Yes. You are right, but your numbers are not entirely correct if the rumors are true that the 30m is net salary, that means he will earn around 1m a week before tax.
#mufc and Real Madrid are the two clubs closely following Enzo Fernández. Both clubs have held talks but no formal offer yet. United scouts will be observing him tonight. Release clause of €20m and contract expires in 2025
