Or just keep the cover you have as there would be absolutely no point in that.
I don't rate Telles mate, whilst I know Bertrand is a capable full back in the Premier League.

So to me there would be a point to it.

United are now linked to another Brazilian teenage sensation after he nullified Carlos Tevez.

With the new Brexit rules should we expect more interest/transfers like this compared to years gone by? We've always seemed to lag behind recruiting from places like South America etc. compared to the big Spanish/Portugese teams and even teams like Chelsea.

Dont know anything about him, but he will be 26 at the start of next season. Can't be anything special if he still at Getafe at that age.
While I know nothing about this player, I would say that's quite a narrow minded view. Players develop at all different kinds of rates, so just because he isn't a hyped youngster doesn't mean he isn't worthwhile to a bigher club. You'd miss out on some gems by having this attitude by default.

Aye Bruno playing in Portugal at his age mustn't have been anything special either

So it's gonna be Depay/old Aguero with Messi behind. Who knows, could be enough to win La Liga these days.

Sulemana's head coach in Nordsjælland, Fleming Pedersen (on whether he can perform at a top side like United):
Yes, I can. There’s no place he can’t do it.

Yes, with the right club and the right environment, because what it’s about is also playing time. Although he is ready for one of the major leagues in Europe, it is clear that he cannot get as much playing time if the team already has two or three [players] of his types. Playing time is still important as a young player.

Basically, Sevilla want at least 65 million Euros, and United are keeping in touch with Sevilla (via intermediaries is my guess) to try and reduce his price.

I don't know much about this Uruguyan DM, but after doing a quick internet search, he seems to be highly rated by many SA fans and from his YouTube highlights he seems to have a very powerful shot from distance and looks strong technically. I'm all in favour of signing a player like him for a low fee if it would help facilitate the signings of other players.

@antohan what's your take on the player?

Yeah, from what I've looked up he seems like a direct Fred replacement with a bit more physicality. I have no idea if that's right, it's only what I can get from highlights.

From what I've seen (bear in mind that I've seen very little of Getafe), he never really stuck out to me. He pretty much looks on par with the Getafe squad as a whole, and I struggle to see what he offers that we don't already have. At best, I see him as a Matic replacement and more in line with the aggression that Fred and McTominay offer but no more than that.

We should also remember that he's one of the players we're tracking, so it's not like he's our main midfield target. Honestly, I'd rather have one of Xaver Schlager or Max Arnold over Arambarri; now those two players offer more quality.

Looked a good all rounder as a youngster but can't say I've seen much of him since. Certainly far from being in the mix for the NT with Valverde, Bentancur, Vecino, Torreira and Nández all ahead of him.

Doubt he could be any more than a decent squad player for us. Cheap and good value sounds about right.
