Don't we get a set amount from Nike each year of shirt sales, regardless of how many we sell?Agreed, the money we'd make from Sneijder shirt sales alone would negate a large portion of the fee we'd have to splashed.

Considering the fact that he's already sponsored by Nike and is at Inter who're also sponsored by Nike, I don't see why on earth they'd want to pay for him to move to another Nike sponsored team.
We do but it won't stop people coming up with theories like that you've quoted though.

Gasperini's latest on the Sneijder saga.
Is the Nike rumor that we're looking to Nike to improve his contract with them to make sure we don't have to pay higher wages? Smart thinking if true.

Because few people outside Italy support Inter (and even in Italy they are like third or fourth) while United are a worldwide brand and one of the three most recognized football clubs on planet, possibly among top 5 most recognized sports brands anywhere.

I dont get this shirt sales thingy. If Sneijder comes he'll sell loads of shirts, but that shirt sale will most likely be at the expense of one of our other players, so i dont see how him comin will generate anymore income - unless parents / fans are buyin more than one United shirt with different players names on them?!
Guys you are aware this whole Nike rumour pretty much started due to site glitch yeah? Altidore could be edited to look the same way.

We're discussing a different rumour (not the glitch which portayed Sneijder as a Nike-boot-wearing Manchester United player: 'One of the most deadly accurate players in the world, Wesley Sneijder plays for Manchester United and wears the Nike T90 Laser III' etc). The relevant rumour is that Nike have stepped in to aid Wes's move to United.![]()
But interesting that Beckham has always played for Adidas sponsored teams since us
Well it's only two teams. England were sponsered by Umbro, Real have had Adidas for ages and the MLS is only legally allowed to wear Adidas kits.
Fergie will have a press conference when United land in Chicago tonight. Lets see how he denies the Sneijder story this time![]()
I prefer 'no value in the market' ."There's nothing to say on that"

It makes alot of sense though and I wouldn't be surprised if it happened with a few other transfers.
Scenario:
Sneijder signs for us with the a bit of financial help from Nike, he sells a shed load of shirts, Nike have a handsome boost to their profits.
Alternate Scenario:
Nike don't offer any financial help, we don't sign Sneijder, he doesn't sell a shed load of shirts, Nike don't make a handsome profit on top of what they usually make.
Which do you think Nike would prefer?
The Nike thing is complete bollocks in my opinion, why'd they let Ronaldo go to Madrid?
Of course it would benefit Nike having one of Europe's top player's at their biggest seller, United, but the idea they'd fund any part of the deal is surely a load of shite.
