They've bought a lot better than we have, despite the wasted talent along the way.

I would never have an agent like Raiola, he would have nothing to do with me and I would tell him to fcuk off. BUt it seems like most of the top footballers do not have a lot of brains.
To the Maguire thread!
What's happened? All over bar the shouting?
Absolutely nothing happened.
RMC news that it's going to be announced soon and it's between PSG and Barcelona. RMC say PSG owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi has made him a high priority and would pay the necessary fees.
Is RMC reliable?
from a footballing perspective, PSG offers him little regular challenge in the league, having to hope for a European run to get the challenges he's after, exactly the same as at Ajax except winning the French league with PSG is even less of a challenge, only for a lot more money
can't see that being at all what he's after regardless of the quality of their coach and their players. to me, De Ligt is too much of a football fan to ever consider PSG

Mohamed Bouhafsi is at RMC isn't he? He's reliable is he not?
If his name is on that report in any way.. ominous.

Yeah, I'd say its credible, because his name is on the article.

Matthijs de Ligt's dossier is expected to have an epilogue in the coming days. According to our information, only PSG and Barça are still in the race.
Where will Matthijs from Ligt play next season? Last April, the departure of the captain of Ajax at the end of the season was announced despite a contract termination in June 2021. Since then, the biggest European clubs such as Juventus Turin, Bayern Munich, Manchester United, PSG and Barça tried to convince him. According to our information only of them of them are still in the race.
De Ligt will decide in the coming days
In pole since a good moment to make sign the nugget Dutch, Barça would have been joined by the PSG . A real priority decided by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi for Paris, the teams of Antero Henrique made a lot of progress in the negotiations and got closer to the demands of the De Ligt clan. It would be a matter of days and not weeks to know who will sign Matthijs De Ligt.
A transfer to around 75 million
It remains to be seen how much the 19-year-old player's buying club will have to pay. The demands of his agent Mino Raiola cooled Barça who flatly refused to increase his offer of 70 million. Thus, it will spend about 75 million euros to seduce Ajax Amsterdam and Mino Raiola.

(As in the twitter thread)
Ah feck. At least it was settled quickly, I guess
I'd be pretty disappointed if he chose PSG. He would actually go down in my estimations.
Ahh feck.. I’m officially out..
Glad I never invested in this one. It was never, ever happening.
Is that really a choice? Got to be Barca if he's decided it's only between those two...
Gg boys. It was good while it lasted.
Don’t worry muppets, some guy on reddit said we have him in the bag 
Well this sucks
I was The Walrus,
But noowoo ooow ooo ooww...
I’m John.

Feckkkkkkk. Who do we move onto?
What an anticlimactic ending it would be to this transfer saga if he chose to sign for PSG. fecking joke of a club.
Was never happening but still disappointed. Jones and Smalling to look forward to once again 
Tbf RMC is only reliable regarding french players if im not mistaken.
This is the last push over the hill. Believe!

Reliable with French clubs. They'd know if PSG are getting De Ligt.
Are we even close to sign any player away from Swansea winger ?
Who cares, we've never been linked with him (apart from the obvious Raiola leaks), and he was never going to choose us over Barca and PSG.
If he goes to PSG then everything he said was bullshit and he goes purely for the money.
Bruno Fernandes apparently
They don't. They just said a decision is coming soon and threw PSG into the mix.
Nothing confirmed yet.
At least that's a good player.
I don't believe RMC. If we weren't in it then Barca wouldn't be getting so salty about us. I'm staying unzipped.
They didn't just throw them into the mix. They said they were the only club along with Barca who even had a shout. That's not simply throwing them into the mix.
I've posted the article. They did more than just "throw PSG into the mix".
Would also be the case if he had come here.
Close thread.
I'm not sure how to take this news from RMC. Yes Bouhafsi name is on it, but he isnt the writer really (JR and Bouhafsi). And a lot of it is speculation and "our sources" quoted.
I honestly think that no one really knows, and DeLigt loves to fool with the media. Raiola wants more money, so I wouldnt be surprised if he is still working for the best deal.
