I thought it was 65m?€42 million release clause apparently.

How much this summer?He just signed a new deal with a release clause of 42 million next summer.
Excpet AWB, Fred that is a good time.If we can get him and Sancho wouldn't our team be good enough to compete for the title?
..........................De Gea............................
AWB....Upamecano.....Maguire.......Shaw

Sancho................Bruno..............Rashford

Subs - Romero Williams Lindelof Mctominay Mata Greenwood Ighalo
I believe this team can challenge for the title
Complete bollox
I know it was bit OTT but we could have got better options than Maguire for 80m.
This game? He’s having a fantastic season tbf. €42m release clause can be activated next year. Some big clubs will be all over it. Hope we are too!This game will start a bidding war.
For sure, he looks absolutely dominant. What a player.This game will start a bidding war.
Agreed at the cost of risking the wrath of the UpamecanitesSo is anyone going to say something about him being caught out in the build up to the penalty for AM?? No doubt he's a talented, but still has a lot to learn and improve on like defending and reading/anticipating.
@Adnan has been high on him for a long, long time now. Games like this certainly take him up a level because he looks world class out there against a team who are seen as proper CL contenders.Is this his normal level?
If so, any club that needs a defender (i.e City /Chelsea /US) that doesn't go for him are complete loons
Of course he’s got a lot to learn, he’s 21.So is anyone going to say something about him being caught out in the build up to the penalty for AM?? No doubt he's a talented, but still has a lot to learn and improve on like defending and reading/anticipating.
United are in a precarious situation where if you throw in a young CB, no matter how talented, he's going to have growing pains and mistakes in him. I'm all for letting young players mature, but it's a huge risk you do take and you see why teams don't always integrate young players straight into their first XI or primary rotation. It's why Bellingham not coming to United right now made complete sense, it's why Greenwood not starting so much in the league until the restart was correct, etc.Of course he’s got a lot to learn, he’s 21.
Not sure he’s what he need, as we need an experienced CB to partner Maguire, rather than a talented youngster.
Would be a risky signing, but if he fulfils his potential, would be a risk worth taking.
I know but doing it in a CL quarter is different. This is what the big clubs are looking for.This game? He’s having a fantastic season tbf. €42m release clause can be activated next year. Some big clubs will be all over it. Hope we are too!
If he was looking to leave he wouldn't have signed an extension so early on in the window.Don’t understand why we did not trigger his release clause this summer. He was looking to leave, hope we are targeting him for next summer
Are you sure? I've only seen him constantly say that Konate is better than Upamecano.@Adnan has been high on him for a long, long time now. Games like this certainly take him up a level because he looks world class out there against a team who are seen as proper CL contenders.
I don't think any other young centre back in the world looks this good.This is an example as to why people say I’m hard on Axel. When I see this sort of standard, from a younger player - this is the bar I demand from our own equivalent. Otherwise, why wouldn’t I want us to sign Upamecano and move Axel on? It’s not like Upamecano plays for Madrid and is unattainable. I’m not into just happily advocating a lower standard because a player is from our academy, under some sort of ‘every player can’t be *insert top level player* level’ position.
Where we can, we have to try and get the best. Random rambling I know, but watching tonight just highlighted the point to me. Axel looks alright, but not THIS good.
Around 54m pounds but expired due to signed new contract. He has new release clause lower but only active next summer.How much this summer?
