Yes but it's only done when it's done. Till then, as close as it is, it's still a work in progress and we've seen those go wrong before. Hopefully we get over the line soon, so that we can all have one big Muppet party and move on to other business.
Jadon Sancho| Staying at Dortmund for now

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

This will also be a huge transfer in terms of weekly wages.
Sancho is already on something like £190,000 per week at Dortmund. At United, this will probably rise to ~ £250,000 per week, making him the highest-earning young player in the world after Mbappe. If he continues to progress and stay at United long term, he may be our first £750,000 per week player.

I am just connecting the dots with no substantial evidence. After 2 years of heavy spending we got only Fred in 2018. We spent again heavily in 2019 and we are going to do the same this year as well. Definitely, we will be having 1 or 2 quiet or low spending windows in near future.
Provided we can get a DM next summer and maybe a cheap young LB too I would be happy with that.
Did you see the post I just added to the Grealish thread as it kind of backs up your last sentence nicely.
He was offered the contract but never signed it. Pretty sure he doesn't earn up to that.
You should get a job writing for The Sun with comments like that.
The Sun would have written 1 million per week.
I exercised restraint.
I mean it's natural - the club only has so much money to spend. Liverpool spent feck all last season, and seems like they don't have anything to spend this summer too.
Now, we better hope this Ole gamble pays off because we've hedged our future on him.
I cannot find a "reliable" source detailing his current wages, however.
I doubt he's on £190k a week already, but I don't think £200-250k a week is unreasonable for the most expensive player in PL history.
Here we go
Yeah I did. He would be a solid addition to the squad.
Should be another good Sancho Day.
Today could be the day, lads. Buckle up here we go!
Why stop at 750 k per week, make it all the to a 1 million per week
.Basically Greenwood is turning 21 in a few months(Edit: in 26 months or so) making him practically older than Sancho to be honest.

Well we should be shipping players out and get some money back in so we can get him and others.
Personally will get Lingard, Sanchez and Pereira out for Grealish. I reckon they could cover up to 75% of his transfer fee and will be saving far more in wages honestly.
Let Fred go and he could cover 50% of Rice or even more of Partey's fee.
And Finally let Smalling, Jones and Rojo go and replace them with Badiashile or Kabak and it will be a good transfer window.
Bild reporting we've offered to pay the 120m euros in three instalments and some more unreliable sources saying it will be accepted. I think it was 50m euros followed by two further payments, if so and accepted that'd leave us a sizeable chunk for more signings
See what today brings.

Howard Nurse tweet saying that Man United are considering making an enquiry for Jadon Sancho
Fabrizio really doesn't sleep does he?
Sancho can play any of the 3 positions behind the striker.
Stop worrying, Greenwood will play just as many games as last year they'll just be rotated a bit more and have a bit of a rest every now and again.
Rashford will drop out 1 week, Greenwood the next. if Martial gets injured then we've got a class player to come in instead of Mata or James etc.
Howard Nurse’s latest tweet says we need to wait for the NYSE to open tomorrow morning before any announcement can be made.
I thought Greenwood was only 18
Fixed this one for you.
Howard Nurse’s latest tweet says we need to wait for the NYSE to open tomorrow morning before any announcement in regards to bringing Paul Pogba back to the club can be made.
Think he'd be around Rashford wages - £200.000 with lots of incentive addons.
He is!
Already answered that in a post that is a few posts before yours!Why stop at 750 k per week, make it all the to a 1 million per week
I'm surprised we didn't stretch out payments over 5 years!
Also wondering how much of that 70m + 30m + 20m are performance related and how much is guaranteed money?
Nonetheless, if we get this done quickly, it won't matter. Our front line will be pretty much set for the next 5 years.
We might be overpaying a bit, but for a future England star to go along with our other future England stars, I don't think the marketing aspect can be underestimated. If Jadon ends up playing 10-12 years for us it will look like a bargain.

if it wasn't for my own muppetry, I'd want Woodward to submit the bid on the 11th and see if they can refuse that.
here we go..
I'm actually expecting an official annoucment on the 7th of August. Both Maguire and AWB was annouced the same date as their respective shirt numbers..
But 11 is also available so could be that.
I don't give a feck if we're getting fleeced.
We got SANCHO, PAUL POGBA AND FRED.

Does the structure of payments really matter to either Dortmund or United?
Even if we pay Dortmund 120m over 5 years, whoever they sign to replace him will also have his transfer fee paid over 5 years anyway?

This feels close, I think we'll get him this week in my opinion.
