That's not how I read that Tweet. United are just keeping an eye on Goretzka's situation as Tuchel is pushing hard for Rice. Given that Rice will be expensive and also take up Goretzka's midfield spot, United are hoping that Goretza may push to leave and become a cheaper alternative in that defensive midfield position.
Plettenberg actually says that Goretzka's still likely to stay given the player's personal preference and the lack of talks from United's end.
Ten Hag would go crazy within a short period of time due to Goretzka's positioning. I highly doubt your coach would be in favour of that transfer.
Goretzka would be a better fit at Liverpool. On the flip side, maybe Erik Ten Hag could teach him a few basics for a midfielder...(doubt it lol).
Most Bayernfans would be very happy if he would leave. Behaves like a passenger in most games, doesn't know how to position himself, both defensivley and in the build-up, and basically lives for his runs in the opponents box, while his output has gotten very modest for that luxury-approach.
So, no, he isn't still fine. I defended him for a while; his half season under Flick when Bayern won the treble was impressive, but to be honest, that was his only time where he delivered consistently at Bayern.
I doubt he would leave immediately, even if Bayern lands a big midfield signing. Goretzka would try to force his way back into the team, he knows he has a high standing in the German media,...but i think he would fail, since Tuchel sees Kimmich also an a 8, and Goretzka has no chance to come on top of him. So, if Bayern can get a good number 6 in the summer, big name or otherwise, he is in big trouble.
Also keep in mind that he is on fairly high wages, 16-17M€/year.

Tier 2:
The only thing I’ve read that is reliable says it isn’t close even if the interest is real.
Think this is a 2022 post that’s glitched back in.
That or Real Names internet has been down since last June
Sounds more reasonable price with bonuses included
Which one? Kim wouldn’t happen until early July cos that’s when the claude becomes active.
Mount looks like talks are happening and so could move quickly.
Keep in mind that this is what United are looking to get Mount for. Chelsea will still want more and will push United and other suitors to offer more than €50m.
He’s just showing us a sense of maturity that belies his tender age of 24….but wearing a 44 year olds shirt
That’s a fair value
Imagine if him and Rashford go shopping together. They need classes from Beckham.
The price is becoming more and more acceptable. Good job negotiation team, rare I say that
Wouldn't be surprised if that initial price was from Chelsea briefings to media. Hope we get this done around €50m
This Mount signing doesn't fill me with hope, especially if we are signing Kane also, won't the 3 of them (including Bruno) be occupying the same space?
Keep him you bastards.
I hope at the very least we've identified backup options so that we can move on (or credibly signal our intent to walk away) if the asking price is too high.
In Rashy's defence I don't think I've ever seen him in a shirt like Mount had on in that Tweet or a suit made of upholstery fabric.
44? That thing has got serious Del Boca Vista vibes.
I could see this at £45m, there or thereabouts. £70m ..... yeah. Just sign him on a pre contract in January 2024?
Ah now come on, you mean 74. I'm 45 and nobody I know would be seen dead in that.
Wasnt it that they weren't accepting below 80m earlier? haha
It's a Logan Roy cardigan. Don't be surprised if it becomes fashionable over the next 18 months or so. Mount is just ahead of the curve.
80m euros=70m pounds
This one will take all of June, because of FFP they have to get as much money as they can. I don't think they'll budge right now. We have to remember reports of Mount coming here only started like a week ago so let's try to have patience, especially since our ownership is still in an odd state of limbo
I had to Google that, maybe I went too young with 44
….clearly I went too young with 44
fecks sake I meant 144!
Wow that really explains everything about the valuation. Thanks so much feckin eye roll
Let's see how this posturing works as we get closer to the beginning of July.
Now with Maldini leaving Milan I wonder if that has a ripple affect on the RLC deal from Chelsea to Milan as well.
Us getting Hojlund and Kane in the same window is probably a no go?
I think if Real are interested in Kane then we have no chance. Levy won't sell to us, so it's more likely he stays put than comes here. Unless we pay way over the odds.
Where is Maldini going?
Move on. For a player in last year of contract and club needing to sell, that would be big sum to pay even for Kane.
God bless you Todd Boehly.
It’s not true even after last season loss of £115m which affects the FSP and FFP rules the most the club still had revenue of £583m and wages of £384m we still spent over £200m.
This year things are now being monitored and assessed from January 23 to December 23, probably the reason we spent nothing in January. This years accounts out soon will determine the true extent, the briefing was turnover of £550-570m, with a loss of £110m and we have to pay interest on the debt at £35m. Wages can not be £384m as the club has a built in Europa League clause so let’s assume 15% reduction in the same way we lost at least £60m from the CL Turnover. Let’s try and make an educated guess Turnover £560m - 90% FSP rule £504m - wages £325m - Financials (Debt £110) (Interest to service debt £35m) = £34m left which can be amortised over 4/5 years so about £150m without player sales. If we sell Henderson for £25m, Mctominay for £30m, B Williams for £5m and Elanga for £10m, all of these players cost the club nothing so are sold as net profit meaning £104m available which could then be multiplied by the length of contracts average at 4 years is £416m budget.
FFP and FSP are not the problem this year, the club being skint under current owners is, if we sold the club earlier we could have gone huge this summer, next year is a much bigger problem as the FSP reduces to 80%.
Clearly does not understand the New FSP rules, if he sold Mount, CHO and RLC for £100m combined he could spend another £400m this summer, but with an already huge wage bill, no European football, their revenue is going to drop to high 300m at best. He will be begging clubs to take the players soon !
