The loyalty fee, only concerns the length of the current contract, logically the player doesn't have to renew it ad vitam aeternam. And if the club accepts an offer for a player with a contract, it's the club who isn't fulfilling the terms of the contract.

In theory yes, but in reality as we can see with the DeGea/Sterling situations it isn't that clear cut. Since clubs risk loosing players for free if they allow them to run down their contract. Loyalty bonuses I think should be linked to renewals.
Best thing to happen to this thread in weeks
You can link it to whatever you want since it's an agreement between the two parties, but a player shouldn't be stupid enough to accept that it's linked to a renewal, because it's part of his signing bonus. Football clubs rarely respect their engagements, there is no reasons to see the rare players who decide to respect theirs and walk free when they can, as the bad guys.
think I should stay away from the transfer season until United actually signs someone, it's getting too sillyBest thing to happen to this thread in weeks
True I guess, I don't really see the players as the bad guys tbh. I just think that there is an issue with the transfer system in that sense. But hey ho, it is what it is.
Not all that bad. Now people on the caf who doesn't know how transfers work, do. I prefer it over many things posted in this thread.
BBC. Good grief! Although it does only say "interested" in so pretty much a nothing story...but... BBC!
I'm still not sure what you're on about but ok.
I think that he confused transfer request and transfer agreement from the player.
Their journalists explained last summer they aren't supposed to speculate like other outlets; they have to have a credible source who has spoken to the BBC directly before they can post transfer stories (not including their gossip section, obviously).Where have they been for the last couple of days?
Still, doesn't mean much. Just means that the club has briefed the BBC and presumably others. Adds a lot more credibility to the story.
Even worse than that, its says 'could be interested'!! Even though its BBC, it's pretty vague!
Problem is we likely are interested. Getting is another matter. Some players really don't want to move unless they get a boot up the backside from the selling club.
Even the BBC must be suffering from the lack of transfer activity when they have to write such a vaguely worded piece
After that BBC story I think it's safe to say we're definitely trying to sign the two players. Of course, that doesn't say anything about our chances of landing either one of them. BBC did report the Fabregas story as well two seasons back.
Yep its always add MCFC to a MUFC transfer story, every fecking time
Finally an interesting tweet!
Sky sauces involved too...mmm
Pirlo doesn't know yet
Briefed.
Yeah, it seems likely that all these media outlets have been briefed by the club. Not sure it means a great deal though. Transfer window is all very dagger and cloak. Hope it is though, would be two excellent additions and add to the spine of the first XI considerably.
Yep very clearly and probably Woodward himself.
Which makes me think we're confident of signing one, if not both.
Yep. Simon Stone is no bullshitter either - he's PA. Not saying its going to happen but he's been briefed from someone in position of authority (i.e. Woodward).
Schweinsteiger and Ramos would be brilliant.
The BBC article ends with 'more to follow'. And someone said last season that the BBC needs 2 different sources, so maybe it's not only the club who told them that we were interested.
The Beeb and Sky reporting it? James Cooper in particular?
Pants soggy.
Pants soggy.
Teases.
Happy Kondogbia Day everyone!

Yep. I'd see little point in it if we're just posturing. There must be more to this.
of course we're 'interested', it takes more than interest to get a deal done, though
Neither Schweinsteiger or Ramos deal seems so easy as if we are interested we will get them.
Depends also if Real and Bayern wanna sell.
Depends also if Real and Bayern wanna sell.
I might be jumping the gun here, but I'm 500% certain that "more to follow" means "more PLAYERS to follow". In other words, the BBC are also saying that we're buying Ronaldo and Messi too. or not
Would be weird to see all of Valdes, Ramos, Schweinsteiger, Di Maria and Mata playing for us, wouldn't it? All players I associate more with other teams....
