Miha Zajic signing for Genoa may not be that big of a deal, but this article contains a couple more interesting bits of news:

Genoa are also pursuing Roma's Rick Karsdrop and Inter's Andrea Ranocchia.

With negotiations for Bakayoko getting tougher, Milan are lining up alternatives, one of them being Lille's Boubakary Soumare.

Also, Lyon are targeting Milan's Lucas Paqueta.

This article gives us an idea of why Roma are starting to push for Smalling more:
  • Cagliari are about to sign Roma's Federico Fazio
    • Price: 2.5 million Euros + 500k in bonuses
  • Cagliari want Napoli's Adam Ounas, but Napoli are asking for Nahitan Nandez in return.

Why would he sign a one year deal
Maybe Roma are doing something similar with Smalling that we typically do with our older players: give them a rolling 1-year contract. I wouldn't be surprised if, at the conclusion of the transfer, we'll learn of an additional year as an option.

Was hoping for more noise around the club and transfers this week, getting pretty close to the start of the season now, getting less hopeful.
Seems it will just be Sancho and maybe a LB or Thiago while focusing on reducing the squad via loans/transfers/

Romano sticking to his guns here where as most journalists with their reputation on the line would have backed down amidst all the other conflicting speculation over the transfer.

For that reason i'm inclined to believe him.

the ultimate combination is genius and insanity
What i find interesting is that Fab is the only guy backing the agent and wages is fine, fee is the issue.

All other journo's however are adamant that the fee is fine, wages and agent is the issue.

Wonder why two very reliable sources of information are totally inverse on this transfer

It's hardly an act of courage. There's dead silence in Germany about this supposed saga, and today is no different.

It's 120m euros plus agent fees what is there to change? He never mentions agent fee. The fee is bs because it's different for different clubs.

He’s telling us that everything has be agreed with the player. He’s insisted this for a month without changing his story.

Over the last week or two, most reports have said we have agreed nothing with the player. Even reports saying the club itself has claimed a deal with the player is false.

Hes definitely going against the grain and sticking to his guns here.

If we agreed to the fee I think he is right and the transfer would be quick. They wouldn't be pursuing him if he wanted too much wages.

Would anyone want him at utd for a season on loan if Sancho deal doesn't come off? Bayern did similar in getting Perisic on loanne

Duncan Castles and IanMcGarry both said that that the sticking point is the fee and that personal terms etc was agreed awhile ago.

Barça are open to sell Semedo this market and are looking for a consolidated relief.
They have already met with Arsenal and could sign Bellerín for 20m€

They get their info from sources, it's not like they're tapping or hacking woodward's and zorc's phones. Romano's source is probably Sancho's agent. The english journos likely have theirs within United

I will never grow tired of questioning the players in these instances: does Sancho really want out, and to United? Force a move, boy! Do a Werner, do a Havertz. Request a transfer and make the wheels going.
