Ronaldo and Mendes are probably talking to each other every day right now with so little time left in the window so I don't think it is being done without Ronaldo being in the loop. He wants to go to a club that can win the CL and there are very few options that fit, so I think he will be willing to go to City if the opportunity presents itself.
Didn't Ronaldo buy a greek island for Mendes? I'm sure whatever Mendes' doing right now is what Ronaldo wants.
Which makes Ronaldo's instagram post last week really confusing.

Juventus will issue shares to raise up to €400m by the end of 2021. The money will be used to stabilise the club's finances, strengthen the team, and enhance Juventus's brand.

Free agent Jetro Willems (PSV, Frankfurt, Newcastle) signs a 2 year deal for Greuther Furth (Bundesliga).
Very entertaining footballer when he's on, but hasn't played much since he did his ACL.

"Did that tackle end my career? Well, I never played a full game again, did I? It seems like a great coincidence, don’t you think?"

Yeah. You know better than him though mate.
Haaland played 4 days after that tackle for Norway, so no Keane didn’t end his career. He actually carried on playing for another couple of seasons before retiring.

The Barca briefings incl. Messi's contract, Locatelli's transfer and the Mbappe situation have been the most boring news this window.

This is where PSGs stance stands sounding pretty stupid. They wont sell him but they wont let him leave for free? They really arent going to have much say in that one.

And yeah Mbappe "promised". The same sort of ironclad verbal agreement Harry Kane thought Daniel Levy would honour.

So sell him this window, for God´s sake, if you want money back, Leonardo. €180m is not free, and btw., how much did you pay for Messi?

His whining is becoming a bit ridiculous now.

Sounds like the logic displayed in some transfer threads on the caf "he promised not to leave for free, so if we reject all offers he has no choice but to extend his contract". But who knows, maybe Mbappe is less eager to piss of a nation state than he would be with a regular football club.

Mbappe's holding all the cards and Leonardo is sounding a bit clueless there. The we've worked hard all Summer to show Mbappe our best team bit just made them sound weak.

Promising Kane that he'll be the absolute center piece of the club is hardly something new, is it? He already had that status before and it didn't stop him from seeking a move.

Either way, it´s totally irrelevant. Keane is not United,

We aren’t going to sign anyone else. Very decent Summer. Fancy us to start slowly then really look a top class side as the season goes by.

Yes, we´ll only get better. Like last season, many of our players are not look fully up to speed after a short preseason, and we have yet to see the team with Cavani, Varane, Rashford and Sancho in it. Those who are writing us off after 4 points in two matches, are mental. Just plain mental.

This summer for peanuts there is the potential of signing Kamara, Moriba or Camavinga when we spent just £40m last season and pulled out of a SAncho deal that we then did this season (cheaper of course but hey).

The no players out just doesnt wash with me, you also have Saul for a possibloe loan or the likes of Neves/Bissouma at around £40m.

We are talking potentially about the possibility of challenging and winning trophies or standing still despite two good signings when you look at what 2 of the other big three clubs have done in our league.

If this is down to Ole, he gets sacked, if its down to our transfer dealers, there inability to move on anybody so far....someone should be sacked. If its down to the board, they have pulled the wool over everybodies eyes by signing Varane.

Said before the window we needed two central mdifielders, failure to sign one with so many good options out there when we are leading contenders for most of them, frankly is pitiful

Ed Aarons also reports that City were willing to pay £127m (or ~€150m) for Kane. However, Levy was only interested in a £150m offer.

Ole was talking him up earlier in preseason, but hasn't played him at all - he didn't even get on when we substituted both Fred and Matic vs Saints. One can only assume that Ole's spiel was largely about trying to attract a buyer for the player.
Ole wouldn't then tell him/his agent that he's in the plans and the agent wouldn't then be expecting more minutes. The agent would have been saying he wants his player out now, not leaving it as a potential future option.

We're clearly not attempting to sell the player.

That Guido Albers interview read like sarcasm from start to finish. I don't think either the agent or the player now genuinely believe that they will get chances this year - they just wanted to flag Solskjaer's public comments "in the English press". Notice they didn't make mention of any private assurances, probably because there haven't been any.

“That would be one idea, for example. But as I said: You have to see what is possible with our economic possibilities and what moves within the framework." - Hasan Salihamidzic at SPORT1 when asked whether Sabitzer's being looked as a midfield reinforcement.

Don't know how he can say that with a straight face after we have to start two of Fred, McTominay or Matic in midfield.
You don't actually HAVE to start two of the three though. You still have two other central midfielders in Pogba and Donny, with the latter for some reason not getting a game, like, ever.
