£30m is fecking robbery if true. James is worth half that.

Real Madrid now want to focus on signing Kylian Mbappe free for next season. Here again, Paris has and always had the same speech: "we want to extend Kylian Mbappe". So PSG will still try to extend their attacker's stay.


Be careful, however, we are in a period of the transfer window where lying poker is common. This is the situation in this Monday evening. We will wait until midnight on Tuesday to be firm and final.

For anyone thinking anything else, that 20M+10M for James will go to pay Ronaldo’s transfer and wages, am sure of it.

If we dont move Lingard on there wont be a CM.

Getting £30 million for James is the best business we’ve done this summer.

As a Leeds fan I consider any such fee an absolute disgrace.

This will no doubt cheer up the Utd faithful but nonetheless it is true.

All of you slagging off Utd's transfer dealings ( with some justification with Lindgard) should bear this deal in mind too. Leeds have been fleeced if true.

Not entirely convinced Dan James wages were exactly equivalent to those of Ronaldo but if it makes you feel they cost the same I wont spoil your day......
I think he is referring to the transfer fee and not Ronaldo's salary.

To fight for his place with whom? With Bruno, Sancho, Rashford or Greenwood?

Lingard must be naive if he believes in this
Not quite that simple though is it. He has family and lives in Manchester. 4-5 months on loan to get his confidence back but maybe he’s happy being a squad player for his boyhood club. I would be.

Official: Ozan Kabak joins Norwich City on loan from Schalke with a purchase option.


According to Romano, the option fee is €14m. This is a solid deal for Schalke given their circumstances.

Get Jesse off the books and it’ll be the best summer window ever. Not sure if we will have enough time to bring in a midfielder. Teams normally don’t want to sell their best players in such a short space of time because of the difficulty to get in a replacement so quick

If that £30m fee is true and we sell Jesse then we will get a CM, without Jesse leaving I can't see us getting a midfielder in still.

Would be interesting to see who we go for. Left it really late now.

Pathetic! Just get him sold. Someone must be willing to offer £10-15m?

Absolutely bizarre how we're selling James but letting Lingard continue to stink out the place. New contract incoming.
Bit harsh, Lingard doesn't stink up the place - he's very well liked by everyone, works extremely hard and wants to be here. Yes, we've added Ronaldo but did that ever impact Lingard? Ronaldo is more of a threat for Cavani and Martial. James is no longer with us and that actually helps him a bit.

Lingard is good competition for the 3 behind the striker, absolutely nothing wrong with keeping him.

Exactly!

I can't understand why people criticize Jesse so much. Who would want to leave their boyhood club, after spending 99% of their career there? There will come time when he'll be useful in the cup games.

Great stuff about James, now sell DVB as well. It's clear he is not going to be played. Good bit of change to buy a DM.

Was that original tweet by him one of the first? Or is he still a "copy and paste" merchant?
Ah yes… that phenomenon where if someone excels at his job, the critics gather to say why he’s shit at what he does because mummy never said anything positive when they put 2 Lego pieces together.

Fabrizio Has had a number of scoops already that NOONE saw coming. Just because he follows up on a report to confirm the information doesn’t mean he’s a “copy and paste” merchant.

To be fair, with Alioski no longer in the squad, Leeds don't have too many wing back/winger options available. Given Bielsa's prior interest in Dan James, I wouldn't be surprised if Leeds were still very keen on him.
