Boring.
United will not be signing Brazilian striker Bruno Gomes from Desportivo Brasil.
The 17-year-old had strongly been linked with a move to Old Trafford ever since a successful trial at the club but United have decided not to follow through on the deal.
Gomes’ representatives will now begin negotiations with clubs in England, Italy and Brazil who are interested in signing the striker.
Speaking exclusively to The Peoples Person, Gomes’ representative Alexis Malavolta admitted the young Brazilian was upset at the news.
“Manchester United and Bruno Gomes did not reach an agreement and he will no longer go to Manchester,” he confirmed.
“He is very upset because he was focused on playing in 2014 for United.
“Manchester also has a stake in the economic rights B9 but released him to deal with another club.”
Up until now, Gomes’ representation has held back from negotiating with any other club interested in him but they will now be looking elsewhere to secure a new club for the youngster.
Malavolta continued: “Paulo Conceição and I, as representative of Bruno Gomes, will talk to the clubs who are interested in Italy, England and Brazil.
“It was just a case of waiting for the official position of Manchester. Now that has been released, we will seek the best for Bruno.”
Gomes had become a fans’ favourite even before signing on the dotted line at United because of his presence on Twitter where he happily engaged in conversation with United fans.
He has had a prolific 12 months in Brazil, securing the Golden Boot for the U17 Championship in Brazil (scoring seven goals in one game along the way) as well as winning his debut title with Brazil’s U17national side.
It is a shame that we won’t get to see what Gomes can do at Old Trafford but I wish him the best of luck with whatever club he goes to.
But reading that, it says that we didn't reach an agreement with the player so how did you get that his club have acted the dick?
Meanwhile, it was confirmed that negotiations between Manchester United and Desportivo Brasil have broken down meaning Brazilian striker Bruno Gomes won’t be joining the club.
Fact the player's upset about it kind of makes me disappointed that we don't want him. He clearly has the talent, bangs in the goals and all, and he clearly had huge desire to be a success at United. Could be a big mistake in a few years time - we'll see.

He seemed to have had his heart set on coming here and our fans had taken him as one of ours already. It's a shame.
I didn't know we had a stake in his economic rights.
So we can hopefully sign him next year? It's not clear cut done and dusted?
Can't believe anyone is overly fussed about this one. None have seen him play and however goodnhe is, he's a million miles away from our first team, with some very good players in his position already.
So which is which? Have negotiations broken down or just hit an impasse? Irrespective of the risk posed by such a transfer I hope we continue monitor his progress and hopefully this is not another bout of Dithering Dave's syndrome.
feck me.
His father told me that United have decided they dont want him anymore and they dont understand why
I talk to him on twitter @DRPAULOPROC he's been very open about the whole thing
Seems pretty confused by it all seems like united have pulled out without much of an explanation if anyThanks dude. How does he seem about it all? Bitter, confused, pissed off??
Whats with the giant fonts?
scored 25 goals in 10 matches so far this season. Last rumour I heard was that Traffic wanted £4m for him, but United wanted to pay £2m
