Covering the drop in the strength of the Euro?
I've just mentioned that in his own thread. Bilbao have some business savvy.
Evidently, so do we my friend. So do we.
Or they know that somebody's very desperate to get him so they want to squeeze out extra mils out of the deal.
£36.5m is a little excessive but not ridiculously so.
That's a good fee, considering his age.
Good price, if true.
Not surprised, could see this coming last season when it was obvious that Welbeck was performing better than him. If Danny got sold then it was only a matter of time before RvP was sold.
Guess we're in for a striker then!
Wouldnt be giving those RVP reports any creedance whatsoever
At 31 in Italy, he is only a bambino.
Edit: Since the source is italian it's probably BS.
Does seem odd that they're giving the price in Sterling when they should be giving it in Euros no?
Not surprising, he needed to leave. We're definitely brining in a striker, by the looks of things. 500k a week off the wage bill with RvP and Faclao gone.
what's the fee? Can't see the tweet. I'm assuming it's about RvP too btw?
Can't see us getting near that fee but if we did that would be incredible business. £6m for a title in 2013 
£15 mill. We ain't getting that for him.
RVP to Lazio for £15m
There is no other currency than euros in the article. (Il Manchester lo sta trattando per una cifra inferiore ai 15 milioni).
£15m.
no way that's true.
cheers for the replies guys.
That will probably be euros then given that its being reported in Italy you'd think.
£15M for a 31 year old with a poor injury record & a year on his contract is too good to be true, sadly.
I suppose, and it is said that United expect 15m, not that the clubs agreed on 15m.
Teams have done it before. Usually happens during the season but wouldn't put it beyond Athletic.
So the tweet is completely inaccurate in pretty much every single way. Typical.
Where have Lazio got £15m from?
Surely bollocks.
Surely bollocks.
Had a peep at that Italian website through Google translate. They do mention fifteen million (with no mention of pounds), so even if it's true, then it is likely 15 million Euros, which is around about what he is worth today.
Maybe £15m including his wages and the like.
15m euros is basically 11m bps.
That would be good business by United
Even £10M would be a pretty good deal for us tbh.
It would surely be Euros but still a good fee for a striker who will be 32 when the season starts and is in the last year of his contract.
£15million seems very unrealistic.. doubt Lazio would pay so much!
If it's inclusive of wages, then yeah can see it being £15m.
€15* surely that's a typo?
Only Chelsea could pull a deal off like that, we couldn't
It's not breaking news, it was in their paper this morning, and has been covered by Sports Witness.
It's likely bollocks too
It's likely bollocks too
True, our selling record has been laughable. Apart from Ronaldo we have hardly received competitive prices for the players we sold.
