Reliable? Hope we don't end up paying that much.
For PSG news, they're fairly reliable. I'd still wait for a more reliable journalist to corroborate them for 100% certainty, but this is still good.
Source (Tier 1):
Regarding McTominay, Napoli can progress on that if they can sell some of their other players.
Cheers.
So sold for what we bought him for roughly with the option to buy back if he progresses or get almost half the transfer fee. Decent.
I see why the price is what it is. Also likely a PSR profit.
I am sorry but my memory does not work like that. Most games becomes a blur after a while. Could not tell you a specific good perfomance from any of our players. Bar possibly Harry Maguire against Fulham or Carrick against Roma, Keane against Juve,
But i know i have seen Jadon play well a number of times, just has not had the impact we all hoped for. I know he is one of the current players we feel it is cool to throw dirt at but i just don’t agree that he is absolute trash as a player.
I agree that he can do a job in a different league, I just don’t think he’s cut out to the pace of the premier league.
Plus I never felt like he was willing to put the effort in which doesn’t help, which is why we should cut our losses if a reasonable offer comes in.
Great so we delayed it for weeks yet didn’t get them to budge on a penny
Typical whipping boys in the market ey
His performances for us have been so bad, compared to when he was in Germany, I believe they sold us his twin brother Jason.

Really hope we’re not caving in to their demands. In no negotiation should they get back what they paid a year ago for a toy they’re tired of. Would not be in line with our other business this summer imo.

The latest from Poland (Tier 2):
Absolutely horrendous deal if it ends up being €60M for an unwanted player, terrible deal by INEOS and the new management.
Absolutely, if it really ends at 60m that's 1 step forward (De Ligt and Mazraoui) and 4 steps back
Should have just gone for Joao Neves at that price.
They did lower their demands, though. Fabrice Hawkins reported this today on his RMC Sport article on PSG's remaining transfer activities:
The initial asking price was €70m according to L'Équipe back in July. PSG just don't want to go any lower than €60m at this time. We shall see if United get to that price via some add-ons or if they pay that as a guaranteed amount.
It's not just the price it's also the way of payment. I think PSG agreed to pay it immediately with Neves, rather than in instalments (as we we're looking to negotiating with deals).
Presumably that's what we've been discussing with PSG as much as the fee. Maybe we've been prepared to pay a little higher than we wanted if we've managed to pay it how we wished (same as the Zirkzee deal)? Or we've maybe negotiated more add ons to get to the potential fee rather than it being guaranteed?
I‘m talking about last season. Four years ago doesn‘t count.
I mean the source is Le Parisien. Sounds like a bit of PR on behalf of PSG. Let's wait and see what the actual details are before we jump to conclusions.
It was reported that Neves chose PSG so not sure that was an option.
We will look like fools if we give PSG what they have wanted all along.
Thanks for the insight, and maybe €50M initial fee and then some add-ons to take to €60m would be good though I still think it should close at €50m in total which is doable because I believe our club is in a stronger position, their head coach does not want Ugarte and Ugarte himself wants to leave this summer and join us and they don't have another taker offering what we offered.
They wanted more to begin with. They wanted to make a profit.
Neves was paid all upfront, we were never in a position to do that.
They’re damned if they do, damned if they don’t in this case.
We want the player, the player wants the move, PSG have slightly reduced their offer.
I think PSG will get what they want and we’ll get what we want.
What I mean by that is the difference will be made up in difficult, but achievable add ons - & if we achieve those add ons - one can assume winning the PL or UCL. No one will care what he cost anyway.
What they said they wanted and what they hoped to get eventually aren't the same. Chelsea said they wanted initially 80m for Mount but they were certainly very happy to get 55-60m. It doesn't matter much unless the player flops because if the player performs, no one will care. Financially though, PSG are the winners here if they are getting €60m.
So when I say that he did a lot at Dortmund - you ignore 4 seasons and only focus on 4 months (when he helped them reach the C.L-final). Please....just stop!
£50m for a central midfielder of a good age, and being a player we want isn't bad business.
Onana went to Villa for about the same despite Everton desperately needing to sell.
Elliot Anderson was about 35m
Smith Rowe was about 30m,
Dewsbury hall about the same,
Gallagher went to Atletico for 35 which was a bit reduced as they didn't want to sell in PL,
Palinha is several years older and went for 40m,
I don't know exactly what price people think he should go for. Its also less than PSG wanted

It's also a very similar price we paid for Fred. Hopefully the new people have identified someone who will fit much better.
So if we sign Zirkzee, DeLigt, Mazraoui for a price that certainly isn't too high - does it really matter if we spend £5-10 million too much on 1-2 other players ?
They are also in the right age group, rather than over 30's. We are building a team rather than a franchise.

I’d wait till the official fee is releases and the payment structure before getting all negative. Most of the delay is because we don’t/didn”t have the funds available.
And the time that he was with us. He isn‘t worth 80 million anymore, 30 if we get lucky!
How dare you to ruin a good moan.. They havent had much to moan about regarding transfers this summer
PSG paid the Neves fee all in one instalment to Benfica. We could not afford that.
Plus the player wanted to go there so would have been pointless going after a player that would rather be elsewhere. Basically Di Maria all over again
its kind of mad. if we accept that he should be higher than smith rowe, and certainly higher than elliot anderson at 35m, but 50m is too much, then what fee are people happy with? If its 45m, or 40m, then they're acting as if 5-10m (around what pellistri just left for) is some sort of massive overpayment bordering on catastrophe.Source?
60 million euros for Ugarte?
