If Covid continues until this time next summer there is no way clubs not bank rolled by oil money will be spending anything like 100m on Sancho....! They aint even doing that this summer......

That’s right. And even then they’ll still won’t get Sancho so he’ll probably remain at Dortmund like Reus.
How long will he have on his contract? If he doesn't extend they will get less money surely. I agree that there will be a lot more suitors and maybe ones that will be more attractive than us. If we don't get him then it puts even more pressure on the team and Ole to produce the goods next season. Also if we do not get him we then have to make sure we buy the right players and not just buy players for the sake of it. He looks a great fit for us, so any alternatives also have to be the right fit. We have been notorious for buying players who are the wrong fit in the past. Hopefully we have actually scouted properly this time.
I hope this is just a negotiation tactic. Would rather save the money for next window than stump for second choice.
His contract expires in 2023
Is Sancho at Dortmund better than Dembele whe he played there?

Interesting choice for Sarr
. Palace would have a very good African front 3, lucky the AFCON doesn't seem to mess with the league any more.That's still a while then. If we cannot get him now, we should walk away otherwise we will be in the bidding war that Dortmund are after. Could still not get him and not have a great season if Mason picked up and injury with no great replacement. At this point, Sancho would be the starter and Mason the backup. It is just what alternatives are out there. Do we do that and fill more voids in the squad.
It will...it's going to be Jan to Feb in 2022. I don't think Zaha is staying at Palace either.Tweet

Yes, way more efficient. His numbers don't lie.
I mean regardless of Dembele which is a conversation within itself we simply need to buy a RW this window - can’t go another season without that position covered properly.
But yeah generally I’d rather lean towards a 20-30m-ish punt to cover for a season and then be back up or sold and then get Sancho next season, than get a 2-4th choice for 80-100m and not get Sancho at all.
Sarr as the headline but he's not on any of the pictures there?Tweet

Yeah, that’s another thing, Dortmund got Haaland and Bellingham, let us have Sancho now ffs. Paying in installments is surely fair enough after covid.
Oh they moved it back! I missed that. I think he'll try and move, not sure anyone will pay what Palace want for him.
Yeah, did think that was odd.
Chiesa from Fiorentina could come and play right wing. Then if Sancho signs Chiesa can be cover for RW, CAM or ST. He has played all of those roles.
If Zaha hadn't previously had a spell at Utd he'd probably be a decent fall back option for a few years. Probably too much baggage now.

Braga have signed Nico Gaitan on a free transfer.
Beaten to a signing once again
thanks Ed.On top of that, it's quite disgraceful we didnt offer him a testimonial. No loyalty in sports whatsoever.Beaten to a signing once again
Not true. We offered a testimonial but he refused. We offered to play 60 minutes this year with 20 next year and the remaining 10 based on performance bonuses.

Stop taking the proverbial Samuel Luckhurst!
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Would it be a proper transfer window without Gaitan speculation?
This is an absolute circus now - they're trotting out all their players to be part of this poker game?
What does the man himself think? Surely he's not desperate enough to join us, or he'd have said something.
Or the opposite, if he really wanted to stay, he would come out saying I am happy and staying. That will end all speculation.
I fear that most United fans have invested so much into him joining, the outrage brewing is not good news for the club.
They have done so well to get the feel good factor back, a poor window now, will be for nothing.
Apparently Jonathan David's moving to Lille for an initial fee of 27.5 million Euros. That's a great price if true.

Massive amount of money for Gent. I believe he came for free too. Well done.

I can see why Immobile wants to stay at Lazio forever. After struggling outside of Italy, he's never been better.

Yeah, this is a win-win-win for sure (Gent get a good amount of money; Lille get closer to replacing Osimhen; David takes the next step forward in Europe).
That is a good price to be honest. 27m pounds for Thiago is not a lot.
I don't see him going that price, unless we'll get eliminated on Friday. If we make it far, or win the thing, the evaluation of what a fair price for him is will go up.
AC Milan have signed promising 17-year-old forward Emil Roback from Hammarby (the club that Ibrahimovic partially owns). Arsenal were heavily linked with him after scouting him for some time and inviting him to tour Arsenal's facilities.

This may not matter as much anymore, but whilst the Saudis were trying to take over Newcastle, the club got in touch with Immobile's agent and were after big-name Italian managers (Allegri, Spaletti).

Manchester United didn't pay Mino Raiola jack. We paid what Juventus agreed to, and Juventus had a contract with Mino about a cut of the transfer. Juventus were the only losers there as they are the ones who had to pay his fees. This guy is supposed to be a journalist and he is peddling fake news.
