The club is still paying massively for the incompetence of the past transfers and giving out contracts like confetti to mediocrity. So you could be right about the liquidity issue.
Where does he say anything about a 'new message?'
Kai Havertz does not play in a position United desperately needs strengthening.

" Manchester United have received a message by BVB " [posted 4hrs ago]
He didn't, ofcourse people want to just talk nonsense about every journalist now.
If you were the club and Dortmund refuse to move from 120m up front asking price, what would you do?
For Oles top target for 2 years in a position we haven't had a player since Nani and for a player that is 20 years old and puts up some of the best numbers in the world I'd pay it in a heartbeat.
If paying the amount to secure Sancho won't disrupt the clubs finances, pay.
No shit Sherlock! Don't get so precious, I used to live in Irlam so I'm an exile
Check his earlier updates, he has been saying this for a while now. You are basically blaming a reporter for not manufacturing news, its not his job to negotiate and move the discussion forward.
The world hadn't gone mad we hadn't lost over £100m when we sanctioned that Maguire deal.
I think that is major click bait TBH. In what reality has he or will he say to Utd, " Hey, I'll ask for a move as long as you come up with an offer"
While it probably is BS, it's not unrealistic that Sancho isn't going to push for a move until Manchester United actually makes an offer. There's no point in risking too much when there's no offer on the table.
This is the problem though. Paying the Sancho money might mean no Bruno cover.. and no CB, if they are the positions that Ole feels need strengthening.
Sancho can play number 10. So he can backup Bruno and Greenwood can slot in RW.
I’d choose one Sancho over 2 others to be honest, he can cover multiple positions himself, and we would just have to rely on some of our backup for another season before we fix that next summer. Not ideal but you don’t miss the chance to sign Sancho.
So where's the bit about it being new?
He could have easily said "No, nothing new, sorry", instead he went for "BVB has sent a message"...
The danger for us in that approach is:
The part where he left out that this happened two weeks ago or that nothing has changed?
He was asked if we were still in for him, and he's responded. He's not insinuated in any way it's brand new information. You've invented that part in the heat of your weird campaign to our him as a fraud.
This.
He did that pretty well on his own, don't you think?

Claim: club will offer contract extension "for sure", the player has been toldHow is that outing him as a fraud?!
His story hasn't changed throughout all of this.
Pretty sure he's said that a few times too. He is a reporter looking to get clicks, can't blame him if reports the same news in a different way after being asked the same question for the 1000th time.
Erm... No? In fact, it's another case of you imagining something in order to out the big bad fraud!
Everyone knows you can only offer one new extension every 5 years.
This. You can read between the lines, what he's referring to is the previous deadline and the value that was confirmed previously, but he's making it sound like 'new news' by saying BVB have 'sent a message.'
I don't think that's beyond the realms of possibility. If you put yourself in his shoes, it's a big step to make (and controversial) to hand in a transfer request. If it were me I'd like to think at least the buying club are putting in a fair offer for my current club before I try to force their hand.
He really isn't. You don't have to read between the lines, because it's literally in the lines
. But you're reading between the lines in order to try and prove in same way he's trying to trick his audience.
