so a barca never-was-been and someone who sound like they are from game of thrones. all the while lewandowski and bale go unsigned. the club is a mess.
Mokbel's been the only one to state that personal terms with De Jong are unlikely to be an issue.
Right, that's fine. Still, Feyenoord could have just rejected our offer as Lyon may have been advanced. I guess, in this case, they really weren't (merely a verbal agreement), so United could jump in and provide a formal offer.I think I saw somewhere that Malacia shares the same agency as FDJ. So, we were already in contact with his representatives. So, I assume from the moment they informed us that Feyenord accepted another bid, it was easier for us to accelerate things.
I'm struggling to recall anyone at the moment. I thought it was Luckhurst, but he didn't report it. Maybe it was one of the Daily Mail reporters outside of Mokbel?I think a couple of others have previously.
Was the Telegraph on the 10th of June. Can’t remember who the journo was. Definitely said personal terms won’t be an issue. I’ll find it.I'm struggling to recall anyone at the moment.

Yeah, you're right. Whittell did state that in his report.Was the Telegraph on the 10th of June. Can’t remember who the journo was. Definitely said personal terms won’t be an issue. I’ll find it.
Ornstein is the one tapping in here. Romano had it out first, from what I've seen.Why is Ornstein covering for the tap in merchant?!!
Jason Burt from this article.Yeah, you're right. Whittell did state that in his report.

Right, that makes two in Burt and Whittell + Luckhurst who stated a few days back that Ten Hag alleviated De Jong's concerns about joining United.A good few journalists have reported that De Jong has been persuaded by Ten Hag.
I refuse to believe we would have negotiated with Barcelona if we hadn't had assurance from the player himself.
Higher fee 15+2 vs OL 13+2 plus a sell on clause means OL have to match us.Any idea why we'd offer more money than Lyon and a sell on clause? Surely we could have offered the same terms?

You're sort of correct. Feyenoord had a verbal agreement with Lyon on the deal. However, since it wasn't formal, United could still jump in with a better formal offer and get ahead in the race.Ah, I was under the impression Lyons bid was already accepted.
Thanks.
So DeJong, Malacia almost done
Eriksen deciding
Dumfries may be bid on
DeLigt rumours too

I know silly me.
Scratch both Dumfries and De Ligt off of the list. None of the more reliable sources have reported on their links to us. Add Antony to the list, and you will have captured our current summer activity succinctly.So DeJong, Malacia almost done

I forgot about Antony but not convinced that we are gonna get him this summerScratch both Dumfries and De Ligt off of the list. None of the more reliable sources have reported on their links to us. Add Antony to the list, and you will have captured our current summer activity succinctly.
I don't see us going for a CB until we've shifted one or two of our own but Dunfries could materialise since we only have AWB and ETH isn't a fan.Scratch both Dumfries and De Ligt off of the list.

Despite Sky talking initially about Malachia they go into De Jong too and are also reporting personal terms for De Jong are not believed to be an issue.
Yeah they are intent on pricing us out of a move for him they want 80 we are prepared to pay 40, non starter.I forgot about Antony but not convinced that we are gonna get him this summer
On the bright side, Melissa Reddy's reporting this, so for we're seeing a rare occasion of reliable reporting from them.Sky Sports New, yesterday's news, tomorrow!
De Jong is a no brainier. Eriksen would be great on a free. Malacia is a punt which you need to take from time to time.So DeJong, Malacia almost done

I'm on the same boat. Even if they bring Bergwijn in, he'd be there to help Ajax move on from Haller.Yeah they are intent on pricing us out of a move for him they want 80 we are prepared to pay 40, non starter.
Ten Hag's willing to give Dalot a chance, however, and whilst Dumfries seems like a reasonable player to bring in, I've yet to see a reliable report linking us to him.I don't see us going for a CB until we've shifted one or two of our own but Dunfries could materialise since we only have AWB and ETH isn't a fan.
I'm gonna cover our backs unjinxing it by saying he prefers living in London just like Eriksen who will stay at Brentford.Relax He isn’t going to choose West Ham or Lyon when United are coming for him
