Obviously it seems natural that if Martial loses his place in our team he would sign for Real Madrid. :houllier:

Adrian Kajumba on the Sancho situation:
  • Talks will continue over the weekend.
  • Both clubs are ~10 million Pounds apart in valuation
    • United: 67 million + add-ons = 75 million add-ons
    • Dortmund: 86 million Pounds (total package)
  • Personal terms + agent fees all but finalised
  • Sancho will become the second-highest earner at United, just shy of de Gea's massive contract.

Kajumba is the best source, so this is great news.

Those wages are beyond daft. Ole and Murtough and Fletcher are a trio of idiots if we make a 21 year old our second highest earner.

I love how you’ve dragged 3 people in who have nothing to do with contracts.

I guess Jacob Steinberg of the Guardian was right after all when he reported that Sancho will be getting 350k per week. With that said, the fact that both Aubameyang and Sterling are 300k+ per week shows that United aren't the only club that give out huge yet questionable contracts.

Yeah, if anything, Matt Judge should be blamed for the contracts. He's the one in charge of the contract negotiations.

Its probably with every possible bonuses , not the base salary. Many of our players can reach those levels in certain weeks if they perform very well

You think these 3 people have no say in the appetite of the wage bill and the imbalance it causes in the dressing room? Judge may well have final say and lead negotiations but let's not pretend he has feck all guidance on the thoughts from the aforementioned names. You think Fergie wanted Hazard and didn't give two shits about the wages?

It doesn't matter how you slice it, earning the 2nd highest in the squad before stepping in to the PL let alone OT at 21 years of age is absolute madness. I can only point to Mbappe as someone who can command something like that.

100%. I think Sancho will earn weekly about £250k and the other £100k in bonuses. Although, Rashford next contract he'll probably be asking for similar to Sancho deal.

Theres a huge difference of getting that only certain weeks if you score and assist or something, than having it as the base salary...

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the structure. That's still a high salary, but Sancho's really good.

Quite sure that's not what's in the contract. Wel see when it's announced. There's clauses sure find it unlikely that they so material so as to make a huge difference.

Are the contracts , even when announced, out in the open though? Often find it to be very varied reporting on that with vastly different amounts, and that they arent shared in detail.

I agree with this, one person doesn't make the call with advice and approval. It has become too easy to blame Judge.

Not in massive transparency but there's enough out there to see a weekly salary. It's not all pure guesswork.

As others have said, they have nothing to do with player contracts. Sancho is already earning 190k/week at Dortmund and a handful of our players have higher wages than that, so it is no surprise for him to move here he'll be getting a pay increase (likely at least partially incentivised) which would put him further up there.

They certainly have a view on it. They know the capacity of the finances which will include transfer and wage bills. They won't obviously dictate the budget amount nor do they negotiate, but they will factor it into appetite for shortlisting players.

In any case its just silly to offer that much for him. 350k per week is insane. We are just a club that never learns.

Martial is a good, strong, pacey striker who can play, and cover, the left wing.
Hes a great squad addition to most teams.

Imagine how Real fans would react to Martial for goodness sake :lol: I do think if a deal was there to be done, we'd part ways with him this summer though.
Not exactly blessed in the attacking department though are they? The squad is dog shit. Their current options in Martial‘s position are Vasquez, Ascenio, Mariano and a past it Hazard.

A fit Martial starts plenty of games for Madrid.

Think he's slightly underrated here. We've had a lot of penalties over the last couple of seasons and he's the one who won most of them.

Benzema hoping to welcome Mbappé after the Euros and ending up with Vinicius/Martial would probably end him :lol:

Promising defender Loïc Badé is linked to Rennes.

Rennes made an offer to Lens for Loïc Badé, but due to the demands of the Northerners [i.e. Lens], the Breton club turned to Arthur Theate (21 years old - K.V. Oostende) in their search for a central defender. [The] Belgians ask for 10 million Euros.

No idea where we get 40M from to buy another CB when we have so many issues in midfield. Are the Kroenke going to bankroll us this summer ? (no)
