Pau Torres should be our first choice. I would be happy to sign Varane as well though. Great player.
I'm still a bit unsure by Torres, he'd be good with Maguire though, but him and Lindelof together? Can't say it makes me that confident. But enough good teams are after him, that has to mean something.
If we cant get Varane or Pau I’d hope we could just use some extra cash and get Rice instead. Would help immensly and we would be good enough defensivly .
The shittest la liga competition since I remember watching Spanish football.
CAF: Give us structure in the transfer comittee! Give us a DOF!
*Man Utd appoint a DOF*
CAF: YEAH!! About time!
Slightly negative news about Man Utd’s transfer activity.
CAF: Woodward fecking up again I see!
Despite there being a lengthy thread about United hiring a position that was we were so desperate for, which for a lot of this transfer period or since the prem ended, why do I always have to correct posters that Woodward is no longer the point of contact for transfers?
I’ll say it again. Woodward is not dealing with transfers this year.
In actual fact, the fact United’s transfer dealings will take place in July shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone considering there’s the Euro’s on.

You think? I've heard he's meant to be very good

I remember when Jann-Fiete Arp made his debut and impressed for Hamburg at a very young age. He's still 21, but he's been quiet since that impressive early period.

Are Varane, Torres and Kounde the only centre backs int he world now or something? Varane is obviously quality but 28, turned us down before, won everything, I wonder if the hunger still there "wants to go back to France" may or may not suggest otherwise.
Torres for me isnt anything special, certinaly not defensively anyway and Kounde is too much money.
ROmagnoli is probably half the price of the cheapest of that lot, Romero has won defender of the year in Serie A and is cheaper than any of that lot. Then there is Bastoni and DeLigt also in Serie A, plenty of other centre backs and personally dont want a Galatico signing and think all thhe other centre backs mentioned are better than Torres and Kounde
Euros and Copa America on all month, bro. There won't be many signings anywhere.
In other news: Water is wet.
Well, United’s scouting department and coaching staff clearly disagrees with you.
Wont think DeLigt is doable as well.
A) I wasn’t complaining
B) I’m almost certain no transfer can get done this summer without Woodward’s stamp
He earns 5m therefore he made the right decision.

Groundbreaking stuff from the MEN
He's employed by the club so was nothing too controversial!
On Mata it was basically how he knows every person in the club by name and always goes out his way to speak to them. He makes more time for the fans than any other player, all players have obligations to various fan interactions but he always volunteers beyond those and is very generous to them. He's also become a real scholar of the club and knows the history and really gets a kick out of it.
As far as negative goes there was a few comments about pogbas lack of effort or inconsistent performances. Mou got some stick about how he never once attended a youth game and had no interest in anything other than the first team, I got the general impression that mou wasn't liked by the staff in general and everyone was happy when he went.
I'm paraphrasing here and everything was good natured really, it was lighthearted
Similar to Nick Cox who is the head of academy but can can also be described as the Sporting director at youth level.
Of course, Inter Miami are interested in Young.

Joel Glazer is the one that stamps the transfers. Woodward takes Murtough’s work to him
Technically that is not correct
so he extends and is immediately bumped down to no 3?
Maybe, maybe not, no evidence yet we have genuine interest in any of them currently
I highly doubt that you know that or that it is true but ok
I'd have really liked to know what Real fans make of Varane, I rated him so highly back in the day that I expected him to be considered on Van Dijk's level by now, but I feel he is just a level beneath what passes for a top-top CB.
Too young to go to MLS yet, me think.
You mean "too old" right? He's 35 years old.
Fair play to him. Guy probably has more trophies in the last decade than either of the two clubs he could join, in that space of time. Don’t blame him for being nonchalant about his next move
A little bit of research goes a long way....but ok, since you asked.
Murtough deals with the day to day dealings with Transfers
Matt Judge deals with player contracts once deals have been agreed
Woodward then takes the deals to Joel and will then sign them off.
Article From The Athletic Explaining Murtough's Role & how it fits in with Woodward and transfers.
Here is a video which also explains Murtough's role:
Happy Now?
The Athletic have also said that every signing has to be mutually agreed by The head scout, the chief exec, the owner, the manager and then Murtough etc

so no, not happy. You’re still wrong
No I'm not fecking wrong.
Murtough is the main point of call.
Woodward still has a finger in the pie so to speak in transfers.
Him "being on holiday" as some sort of self-hating rhetoric has nothing to do with the clubs day to day running of the transfer business. Murtough deals with that. As shown by the video.
Woodward/Joel Glazer is literally the last step of the transfer structure according to that.
