Hasn't it been reported earlier that personal terms and agent fees weren't the problem? As I understood it, it has always been about the transfer price, the fixed vs. variable split, etc.
That was what Romano said, however English press were adamant that there was an impasse regarding agent fees, seems like a brief is happening which could mean the deal is close.

That Sancho was delaying his move because his Dortmund contract gave him a 1.5m bonus after his 10th England appearance.
Also said the deal between the clubs was agreed, it was Sancho waiting it out...

Edit @red thru&thru damn that was quick
On The Transfer Window podcast yesterday, it was mentioned that BvB owed Sancho a 1.5m bonus if he played 10+ England games and was at the club for 1+ year, from the date he signed the contract extension last year.
Cheers guys, gotcha!

It's good that a credible English journalist has thrown his hat in I guess... shows that the deal isn't dead like some people thought.
Indeed not dead, or few said something these rumours or news conjured up from nothing, which is ridiculous when so many of more reliable journalists are mentioning it.

Feet up at home.

Glad we wouldn't be signing a cold hearted mercenary then.

This is the first good news we've had since Fjortoft and the idiots at Sky fooled many of us into believing the deal was virtually done. Seems like eons ago.

Dortmund probably want to sell a lot more than they're letting on.
They definitely do. They're not getting the same fee for him next year when he has less time on his contract, especially when he wants to leave.

Positive news from Ducker. Ducker does have connections with people at the club. He's definitely been fed this piece of news from our side.
Everyone who has positive updates has connections with the club and is absolutely spot on, imo :D

Yeah Fabrizio was running with that story about 2 months ago.
He said the entire time that we kept briefing about the agent fees/wages so we'd have an easy out if the deal fell through. So if we've suddenly briefed that we've agreed the wages and agent fees ...

How do united agree agent fee and wages if dortmund don't want to sell?
Maybe because the player actually wants the move...

Dortmund publicly didn't 'want to sell' during quite literally all of their high profile sales under their current management so that's never really been major to this in my eyes

Which means woody will try and haggle the price down, even below 100m euros would be a good price still for him.
In Woodward's defence I imagine that's what he's spent the last couple of months trying to do.

I bet all these negative ABUs who we`ve been insistent to that this deal isn`t dead can finally shut up now. Cooper said the fee isn`t an obstacle anymore now that personal terms are all done this should move quickly. Hope that Bayer Leverkusen fan is still around BTW

This all lines up quite nicely with Sancho's mate claiming that he's next up for us yesterday...
