What does Schrager actually do? He’s always seemed reliable but I’ve never really got what he is exactly

Back in for Martial?
200 million for Chelsea
150 million for Spurs
It's going to be a busy and tough market this summer
At his age Salah was getting a big transfer to Liverpool. Meanwhile, no big club wants Rashford and not even the fans of his playing club want him. You also have to remember that an English player in the United academy is far more privileged than someone starting from a midtable Egyptian team and will be a few more steps ahead at the beginning of his career.
To be fair they will spend a lot trying to replace the players they are losing like Christiansen, Rudiger, Azpi and Alonso.
200m? That’s one Kepa, one Werner and nearly one Lukaku.
every summer Lazio talk about not wanting to sell Milinković-Savic
It’s ok. Mata hasn’t ruled out signing a new contract and Martial will be back from loan soon
£200m can go a loooong way if we wise up and don’t target solely big names. If our hierarchy is smart we can get some top quality players that are free agents or have 1 year left on their contracts.
If we go out and spunk huge money on more Lukaku’s or Werner’s we’re never going to bridge the gap to the top 2.

Which free agent will replace Rudiger?
They need to get a new backline, don't they? Rudiger, Christiensen, Alonso... Thiago Silva will be 38 a month into the season.. Azpi will probably sign an extension.
They'll need the money..

None that I can think of. We will probably be spending most of our budget on CB’s.
But in attack for example there are some high quality options. Ousmane Dembele and Dybala for example are free.
Seems to be saying we’re about to sign a CB and a striker - and specifically mentions Nunez.
We definitely need to sign more than one midfielder with Pogba and Matic going and Fred and McTominay being squad players at best.
Do you have any buyback for Tomori?
I like Romano but this is really not revealing. Considering we really need 6/7 signings and he is just naming the main priorities, its logical journanlism somebody could guess at accurately, whether he has any cocrete information or more likely not on this at the moment
Personally not excited about him as a signing for us, a ball playing defender when we need a proper defender. I think with champions league and the make up of the squad currently, he would be better off going to Tottenham and would actually be far more successful individually as a player. Think he offers far more of what SPus need at he back then we do. Think he would be really good alongside Romero as thats the kind of player we need
Nope. I think the only recent sales where there is some sort of clause was for Tammy and Livramento where there is a first refusal deal or something.
When does the summer transfer window open and close this year?
10th Jun until 1 Sep.
Most international deals will not go through until 1st July.
He’s had a bad year or 18 months. Prior to that he has been linked to Barca and PSG. Careers aren’t straight lines. There are dips and peaks. 25 years ago we used to talk about footballers reaching their peak at 27-31.
Salah signed for Liverpool at 25 years old. He was considered a gamble at £34m. Nobody for saw the kind of improvement Salah has had since then.
Ducker reported a few hours back that Bayern Munich are monitoring his situation and will go for him if they can't get their top targets.
Great post
We need two midfielders ffs.
Minimal for sure.
2 centre mids I mean. Could do with a Right sides mid/fwd too.
I can easily see the new takeover dragging on as the UK Government unveil more issues with the previous ownership, it will get done but how many players will move to other clubs because of the delay and instability, what was it today Portuguese Government now have to sanction something !
Probably because you're offering peanuts compared to the billion release clause and going out and offering huge money to ageing strikers and average players?
If I were a Barca player I'd be a little suspect being offered below going rate only for my employers to constantly be talking to the media and then hearing offers for Lewa and Raphinha etc.
He just wants to sign, no big time hype and theatre.
