Considering his transfer record, giving up transfer power would've been the very first thing to make him concede before offering a new deal, especially if it interferes with implementing the new structure (which is one of the biggest reasons we wanted new fecking owners in the first place).

99% of these "Journos" know absolute feck all about what's going on. Just making clicks for whatever they write.
I'll create GoFundMe page to help with transfer money
Joking aside, regardless of the financial situation, the club must sell well this summer, City & Madrid do so
Never heard of this lad. Is he any good? Destined to be the best ever?
He's not really in a bargaining position here is he? He absolutely has to give away some of his transfer power because it just categorically hasn't worked.
I like how there are loads of talk about us needing to sell first in order to buy, and then we completely eliminate any negotiating power we might have had with one of our best assets. Everyone will now know that they can get Sancho for a bag of balls. Or we can refuse the bag of balls and he can spend another season with the reserves I guess.
But then we don't get money and we don't get new signings, and we're back struggling to maybe possibly miraculously make it to Europe, not by finishing in the top four of course don't be absurd, but by maybe the competitions expanding to the top 7 in the league or by fluking a cup win.
This news is just so depressing.

Oh yay! We get to keep this rubbish manager AND give him a say over transfers? Nice!
As a starting budget, and with those expected to leave, it would be workable so long as we don’t blow it all on another Mason Mount.£50M
But agree the figure is bollocks. It’ll be based on guesswork and they do it every May/June and it’s always way below what we end up net spending
Absolute rubbish.
Brian Brobbey, here we go
And a 3 month pursuit of De Ligt before he stays at Bayern anyway
Maybe we'll finally land Ziyech this time
No on PSR/FFP we are ok because SJR invested $200(157m) which will offset some of the losses on the accounts, the real issue here is actual working cash. Some of that investment was used to pay off the company Credit card, so the club has a facility to make transfers but probably only £100m maximum without players Sales, the second issue is that by qualifying for Europe then Man United are governed by the Squad ratio rule where the club can only spend 80% of its turnover on;
Wages, Agent Fees, Existing amortised Owed transfers and new Transfer Payments.
The previous year the club turned over £648m so if it’s similar this year, although predicted to be nearer £675 then 80% would be a Limit of £540m, our wages have reduced and will reduce due to EL clauses so assume £300m, amortised costs are anything from £92-104m based on whichever publication you read and Agent fees last year were about £35m
last year, So I would say the club could probably spend £150-200m easily due to amortisation of player contracts however even more than that if they sell Mason Greenwood who will be shown as 100% profit on the accounts.

The real issue here is the Club has no cash and Sir Jim is not piling in unless he gets a bigger slice of ownership shares.
His argument will be, why should I invest more of my money with only 27.7% ownership when the club has been run so badly for so long!
I'd be very happy if he took a very big step back on transfer dealings. Let those in the know find targets and allow him to coach them.
Bookmarked - thanks for that, brilliant!
And still we are capable of wasting 150-200m every summer.
It’s true this summer, the club has no cash, now if our 27.7% co owner was feeling charitable and wanted to stick another $200m(£157m) then the club could be more active, but he’s probably looking at the previous sh..show. And thinks, I’m not letting tgat lot lose with my money, we’ll wait to Berada, Ashworth and Wilcox are all fully in.
I imagine it won't be anywhere as big of a stumbling block as that report makes out.
This deal is getting worse by the minute
Quality control
No way these latest rumours about ten Hag wanting to keep his power over transfers can be true. If we end up keeping this lemon and bowing down to his demands, I seriously give up on this club changing for the better anytime soon.
He should just count himself lucky he still has a job.

Great, we need more newbies slagging off the manager, there's not quite enough of that on the forum.
Sounds accurate. £50m gross, £150m net spend? It would have probably been more gross had we qualified for the CL.
Tier 2:
United are sticking to their £3m valuation for Dan Ashworth, whilst Newcastle are still looking for £15m + add-ons.

Thought it was being sorted out by arbitration in May/June?
No that’s the other one. Were Manchester United.
My god Newcastle really are a wee club
Exactly Erik needs to see sense on this one, if not maybe they should change their mind on keeping him
Sounds a bit of nonsense. What is Ten Hag going to do if they just ignore is so called power, walk? Okay bye.
This should have been solved and contract signed as it was announced. Negotiating with Ten Hag in place makes it awkward.
How to people swallow this crap every single year?
Let's hope it works pleading poverty just like Dortmund are trying to do with us over Sancho
Sure thing, Mike
As one of the comments under that x post says. They knew nothing about what was going on, they all thought he was getting sacked, now they have all these details about the meeting that happened. Bullshitting chancers the lot of them.
I reckon he's definitely worth it if we can haggle a loan deal
I forget he's still only 24 years old. Wow. Feels like he's been around a while for some reason.
Mental he's only 24. He would be an upgrade on Maguire, but price I think will be prohibitive. They're going to expect about £50m minimum and that's at the absolute bottom.
