Yep. Like you and a few other have said above this was always going to happen, his agent more or less said this when he talked about development.

Top man Raees!

I bet he bumped into Dwight Yorke or Gary Neville and he's heard it from them.

I'm worried we won't get him due to him wanting to follow the Haaland route of development. Smaller progressive moves. I think it's why he turned us down earlier in his career.

I agree. Plus the way fees exploded a year or two after Martial came meant it was no longer seen as a overpaying but more a normal fee.

He's very young and has always played in the higher age groups and never looked out of place which shows how highly he's always been rated. He's a very technical and intelligent player that can do a bit of everything and play multiple positions.

Yep. This sums up my feelings too. My concern is we won't sign anyone and if we do we will be paying Nunez type fees anyway as shown by the Martinez price and Antony quoted prices.

I agree with this.

I remember a quote from Ten Hag when we started the job here saying Antony would be very difficult to get. He knew they rely on him this season and therefore have no intention of selling him...unless it's a crazy price.

Also the Red Bull / Austria/ Germany links where alot of Klopp's signings (mainly early on) seemed to come from.

Yes that's about right as reported at time of signing. This is guaranteed money, not the winning Balon Dor type of add-ons. Seems alot of money but then I think we have overpayed for Martinez and could end up paying a Nunez type fee for Antony. It's definitely a seller's market at the moment...

Nail on head here mate. Totally agree. A totally nonsensical article based on speculation and opinion.

Don't know why United fans are even quicker to write off our young players. You've said it yourself the few minutes in the first team and that's enough to make a judgement and that he should be nowhere near the bench? Those that watch the reserves/youth team would probably put him only behind...

It's clear reading this thread not many have actually ever watched him play for the reserves or youth team and are forming an opinion on a few mins of playing up front in a position he's never played before.

I think you are right, unfortunately for us. We either pay almost the exact amount Ajax want (over pay) or we don't get him this summer at least. I don't blame Ajax, they know we have money and that we always over pay with the Utd tax. My concern is we are overpaying for both Martinez and...
