What shocking news club wants to pay less for player than selling club wants to receive.
You learn everyday.
The entire saga can be summed up as follows.
- United want to sign Sancho
- Sancho would like to join United
- United don’t want to pay £108m
- Dortmund want them to pay £108m
Something like that always happens because the player does not force (or stop) the move. I would not blame Sancho in this particular case, though, because he is still very young and possibly unwilling to speak any £100m direct word at this early stage of his career.
The only extra two points, which are quite moot due to the last two, are:
- United think the agent and wage demands are too much
- United now have come to an agreement on the wages and agent demands.

If only we could sell players.
Baffles me we havent moved anyone on bar Sanchez when it's clear as day 6 need to go.
I feel for Ole having to work with these clowns. Absolute shambles
Sounds familiar. 10 days ago Lampard said he was very happy with Kepa.
Can't see that happening unless we sign somebody or we have no cover for Greenwood or Rashford.
No chance unless we’re getting Sancho. So no chance.
Would happily send him on loan. He needs confidence and if they end up offering a decent price, we get our money back and probably then some.
This might offer a little bit of explanation for why we aren't able to spend as much on transfers this summer as expected:
Can someone with a subscription specify what the clause exactly is?

For those wondering why Javi Martinez was a part of the Super Cup squad:

If I was him I’d pick Bayern over Barca. Much more stable club currently and much better immediate future.
I would send him regardless. Would rather any one on the right instead of James.
Dont fall for it. Can bet my last dollar it's just an article United are using to shield themselves from the inevitable backlash of not investing in the squad

Or journos spew bullshit?
Final bid, have we even put in one yet at all?
I wonder if Leicester are pulling out of the Wesley Fofana transfer given how difficult Saint-Etienne have made that.
Which is likely the case..
Tarkowski would be a fantastic signing for Leicester.
But at Barca he has a clearer path to the starting XI. And I would say that Barca is the bigger name.
But I agree with you on the immediate sporting future: Barca‘s looks comparable bleak
What a tool. He could simply admit that he was wrong. Everybody is expecting Martinez to leave but that has obviously not happened yet.
Koopmeiners is a guy the TIFO podcast have mentioned before as a potential shrewd signing for Utd. They seems quite keen on the guy.

The document explains the fundamentals of United’s finances and, for those who know where to look, spells out the extra insurance that lenders have over the club’s debt repayment. United owe £175 million on a loan from BofA Securities (formerly known as Bank of America Merrill Lynch) and have £330.8 million outstanding on “senior secured notes” — effectively bonds to investors. The half-a-billion-pound deficit is a legacy to the Glazer family’s leveraged buyout.
To obtain that money at modest interest rates, United agreed a specific caveat with lenders. According to this “covenant”, the club’s profit must not dip below £65 million in a rolling 12-month period, as taken every quarter. EBITDA stands for “earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation”.
So every three months, when United announce their accounts to investors, the total for the previous year needs to be at least £65 million, or the banks have a legal right to act.
Think of it as football’s spin-off to Speed, the 1994 blockbuster. Except, it is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at the wheel of the bus rather than Sandra Bullock and the consequence for failure to stay above 50mph is not as explosive.

Looks to be very close. Hope he’s another Lindelof
This story's spreading like wildfire in Portugal, so there could be something in it.
Damn, that's dissapointing. Don't think Dias' any special. Wonder how much Otamendi is worth in that deal. Probably between €6-8m.

We were heavily linked with Dias at one point weren't we?
