Whoop whoop!
Employment contract and sponsorship contact are likely to have very different clauses regarding early termination - with the bar for the first one being significantly higher
So, so close that it'll be complete ...by the end of next week.
I'd be surprised if a multi million pound contract didn't have something similar to protect the employer.
I think you’ve misunderstood me.
By ‘he’d be gone’ I mean they’d have just shipped him off to some 2nd division foreign club & washed their hands of him. The trouble is he’s a very promising footballer. I’m not a fan of this hedging of bets; either Manchester United football club think he should play again, in which case United is as good, if not better, an option than any other or they don’t which means offer him out for free but we all know the latter isn’t happening so instead of posturing bring him back.
For me, I think if people are happy for him to be loaned to ‘see if he’s still any good’ then that’s hypocritical. If he went on loan & scored 20 goals those people that don’t want him to play will change their tune quick enough.
This whole situation should have been dealt with ages ago.
I don’t mean release him, see above.
I think you overestimate United’s ability to ship people off even if they wanted to.
Bailly & Telles are still on the books and they are much lesser players.
Sure it would have - but only for things like becoming a convincted criminal. If Greenwood was convicted then I am sure we would have been able to terminate him immediately.
But he wasn't - legally it was just an investigation opened and closed and player's agents/lawyers would not greenlight him signing a contract with such a low bar for termination from club's side. Sponsorship contracts are a different matter and even here it is possible that he could sue Nike.
What are you on about? It's an absolute scoop of a breaking news how United allegedly want a target to join the team on their pre-season. A scoop I tell you!Romano milking every drop as usual. No new info
The fact United are considering keeping him shows the talent he is considered to be.
I get the point but Bailly & Telles ain’t Greenwood. If you told clubs on the continent you want rid on moral grounds for a minimal fee he’d be gone already.
At this point he can't play for the first team (not match fit and emotionally he will get hammered by the fans) and if he is sold it would be for a cut down price. I actually believe that within the club there are still differing opinions what to do with him long term. Those that want to keep him, realise that a loan will help him get match fit and get him used to some of the fan animosity he may receive in England. Those that want him out will still want a good fee for him, and a good loan spell, scoring 20+ goals for a top Italian side, would certainly help increase his transfer value. A loan is a good way of kicking the can down the road for both sides, and ultimately the new owners (if it ever happens) can be the ones to decide. Therefore, despite the fact that everyone would like to know either way, a loan seems like the obvious conclusion.
The bar for being able for an employer is definitely isn't just being a convicted criminal either. It all comes down to whether an employee wants to get rid of you or not, it's not that it's difficult in an instance like this with modern company codes of conduct, etc.
Not convinced on Amad?! Are you serious?
One of the most exciting young talents in world football
So was Sancho supposedly, I haven't seen enough of Amad yet to form an opinion yet though
Give us a good deal for Lavia or first option on Livramento next season and we'll consider it.
Don't Man City have a buy back option on Lavia?
The original Amad Tweet (Tier 4):
Think Nike, as a several hundred billion dollar brand will do whatever they want, while based in the US
They have some sort of option but think it's next season.
Another loan to the championship? Hope not.
Agreed, but it's mainly to illustrate the point if companies want to terminate a contract when something like this happens, they can. It's not like we want to and can't, we clearly don't want to and that's why we're sending him out on loan.
If we're sending him to the Championship then it makes no sense to send him anywhere else than to Sunderland. Unless obviously this acts as a sweetener for our interest in Lavia or something like that.
We need Amad in the squad.

Lisandro Martinez has that covered I think
Tier 2:
Even if he never plays for United, it’s better to receive money for
Theres no chance we're in for Frimpong.
AWB improved a lot as the season went on so I don't see us selling him.
The fact we gave Dalot a new contract suggests we're happy at RB

His improvement just means increase in his potential sale price - it doesn’t mean he won’t be sold to purchase another player if that’s what the manager plans
I don't think we will sign a right back either. Make no mistake though, we do need a serious upgrade. Wan-Bissaka had a decent second half of the season, but him and Dalot aren't good enough.
Another season of inconsistency from both and a new first choice RB will be signed next summer. But yeah, think the RB ship has sailed for this summer.
600k a week for Mount is criminal.
£43m for Onana is good business
When we could have got him on a free last year I’m not sure it is.
We could not have gotten him on a free last year. Inter had CL football and a better squad. He agreed to go there before Ten Hag moved to MU I believe.
