Why shall Bayern care whom to sell him? If the money comes from Man Utd - it’s still the same money, and they will agree all the same
It's a myth like so many other things related to Bayern. Sane's on €17m a year there.
Shock move for a clubless player?
Nah, Bayern isn't paying record breaking transfer fees, but the player salaries are competitive with the richest european clubs.
Feels good to have gotten a player wanted by both Madrid and Barcelona.
Ah OK. Thought I was finally losing my mind.
Yea, strange. I just “replied” - sorry for inconvenience @nokillingmoths
When he says the "rumour is not hot", to me that says he doesn't expect anything to happen with this. Obviously it can all change very quickly but there really isn't a lot of noise around this from reliable journalists.

How much do people think he'd cost if he were sold this summer? I've heard he fell out with the Munich manager and is frustrated at not playing more regularly this season?
I feel like he'd be priced in the £40-50m area.
Why would we raise it with Bruno?
Did Fred write that tweet?
We have a curiously low bar for Fred. A couple of good games and he has had 'an excellent season'
The guy cost over 50 million quid, he should be a dominant player

Probably doesn't score enough goals for your liking. I agree 'an excellent season' is pushing it though
Nope, they just say reports in Germany. It's not a great article tbh, seems to suggest VDB is a Grealish, Maddison and Sancho alternative?!
People reset their expectations on him because of how indescribably poor he was in his first season. Even with that though, I think he's currently a bit over rated by some fans.
Well I can barely remember him ever scoring in the league, so I guess that counts as not enough for my liking.
But it's more his general performances than his goals. I know he did have one or two genuinely excellent games last season, but too often I am left thinking he just doesn't have much impact.
I wish we had a truly dominant defensive midfielder to play behind Pogba and Bruno and with the best will in the world I struggle to picture either Fred or a 32 year old Matic ever seizing that role going forwards.
Fred is fine, he has improved on his awful first season. I'm just not sure fine is enough when you are trying to catch this Liverpool team

I agree. I don't hate him, but I wouldn't mind seeing him go for the right price either. With DVB in the team, I don't think he'll play much.
That's an incredibly low fee for someone who has scored 18 + assisted 18 goals in his last 44 BL appearances (his record under Bosz).
Really underrated player, improved under Bosz as well and was important for Leverkusen. They're signing Schik as a replacement, that's a very difficult type of player.

Because Liverpool can get him for free in a few months time. Creating a bidding war - even a manufactured one - is a ploy to get Liverpool to meet the asking price. They want the fee reduced with the threat of pulling out and getting him free. It's a game of brinkmanship.
I remember Volland was the next big thing and striker in Germany. Was great on football manager as well. How has he progress? Always thought he was odds-on to move to a bigger club
But if Man Utd really wants the player, it’s a different case
Whilst I appreciate the playground insult, nobody in their right mind puts Fred in the City, Liverpool or Chelsea midfield so why exactly should he be starting the first game of the season for us?

That looks like Griezmann at first glance
Bayern’s highest earners (Lewandowski, Müller, Neuer etc.) are said to be on up to €18m gross p.a. which would be a bit over £300k pw.
Bayern‘s wages are very competitive bar the Messi, Neymar, Griezmann level.
happy for him!

€15m is a great price. He played a key role for Bayern in winning the treble last season and, clearly, still has a lot to offer. Perisic along with Gnabry, Sane and Coman are proven, quality options to have in wide areas. You have to envy Bayern for putting their team together so efficiently and so cost effectively.
Huge Thiago fan but our priorities are hopefully Upamecano and Sancho,so if we can get them over the line somehow (big ask I know) then not overly fussed about anything else.
I know we could do with LB competition for Shaw and ideally a Matic replacement but see them as the priorities for next summer.
12 million pounds is fantastic value. We were quoted 50 just 2 years back. If anyone ever needed an example of Man United tax.
Well we keep hearing from some journos that a striker is in our priority list and then there is that constant chatter on Radio/TV about how we need a proper number 9 as well
Well the City manager literally tried to put him in the City midfield, and he’s been better than Keita who was bought same time as him - and is not inferior to the others either. He’s also had a better season than Kanté. He should be starting the first game for us for the reason I mentioned earlier - he’s been one of the best midfielders in the league this season. Or a more palatable answer, he started our last football match and played extremely well.
And that was no playground insult. I’m not interested some statistical breakdown, if I was, I wouldn’t ever need to watch a game of football at all, you just need to know how to find the Opta website - which it seems how many people consume their footy these days. Even then, only selective numbers are applied. Why did you not present a bunch of numbers about how many times Fred won the ball back, ground covered, or even pass completion, as opposed to goals and assists?
When he was brought on board on loan, it looked like a panic move, but he has turned out a reliable option. For 12-15 million, I'm all for signing him permanently.
Agreed, Rice and a LB should be the key focus next summer assuming we get Sancho to fill RW.
Yeah they were saying Martial isn’t good enough and they have clearly not watched us play last season.
