Venê Casagrande mentioned that United rejected the loan extension because they claim to have an offer that exceeds the initially agreed release clause amount and, thus, the current Flamengo offer for 50% if the rights.

I'm wondering does the new kit launch have anything to do with the delay to any new player signings? i.e. the club want to announce new players in their shiny new kit because the sponsors are now missing out on Champions League viewing.
I'm just trying to come up with a reason for inactivity at this point because we're seeing clubs like Nottingham Forest move more decisively.

Looks like we’ve now got a 15 year old new left back who is very very good. Progress at last
I don’t understand the logic that we will definitely drop points in the first few games if we don’t have new signings onboard
If looking for possible reasons, More likely the new financial year that I think starts on 1st July
This
Might be our best bet
Seems a bit far fetched.
I’m not sure either matter really. You can sign a player and do a kit reveal later. With regards to the financial year you’d want to put some of it into the current year so that next year has flexibility too.
Its faux anger genius and it wasnt a fecking transfer tweet
I have a feeling United will surpass expectations in terms of transfers in, again. I'm just annoyed it will happen to late. It will happen though.
1- he is injured for about 70% of a regular season. He d play 8 more games a season at a club like Brentford than he would here. We have better medical facilities and a squad big enough that his absence is less felt.
2- It isn't. If said squad player/ youth player is not preffered to Jones when Jones is injured, they re probably not good enough to demand minutes, nor is it something the club should be in the business of. Play players who can win the game at hand, fans pay a lot of money to watch united and the least they expect the coach not to throw away games with poor selection.
Not even youth players should have preferential treatment. If they can put in a performance equal to, or better than that of an underperforming squad player, they have no business being on the pitch.
3- Agreed in principle, but in this particular case, Jones is on the lowest base salary out of all senior players. If he has positive net input on the team, including but not limited to : team morale, productive training sessions and practice games, maybe even insight when working with the coaching team. He s homegrown too and oa a third of Martials wages.
I always linken the Jones situation to Darren Fletchers' in terms of how the club treated them. Hope Jones has made something out of his time injured like work towards coaching badges and what not.
Edit: off on a tangent
Where on earth we getting the money
The same place we magically pulled it from when we bought Ronaldo.
We don’t have a lack of funds. We have a lack of will to spend from the owners/management.
This should have been a £300m summer. That’s what a mega club would do on the back of the embarrassment we just produced.
As most of us have the expectation of a disastrous summer window, then I don't doubt that you're correct at all!!
I was thinking it had something to do with end quarter results. No spending = better balance sheet
Yea, the logical thing would be to get your spending in this year’s accounts, and do your selling in next year’s…unless we’re expecting record revenue or what not.
Sorry a situation as it is - the guys our best player. Without him we're looking at:
Rashford - Martial - Sancho
Elanga - Garnacho - Pellestri
Which is obviously going to get us nowhere.
Would be a very good summer for me. Though still leaves massive holes at RB (starter) and ST (cover). But hey, Rome wasn't built in a day.
Another day of feck all happening.
Even the ITKs have given up...and no thats down to us being more efficient in keeping things under wraps, its just even they know we ain't doing owt.
Not long ago people were trying to comfort others that we will blitzkrieg our transfer targets after the internationals. It is crystal clear now why we got rid of Ralf, the only (potential) staff member who foresaw what will happen. We are already regretting a decision to scrap his role and sack him, shambles of a club.
Jesus this is so embarrassing I don’t know where to start.
Firstly it’s still June, with players still on holiday. Whether for example we signed De Jong now, or in two weeks, it doesn’t make a bit of difference.
I for one am fed up for being every clubs cash cow, so if it takes a little longer to negotiate deals to stop this trend I personally am more than happy with that.
Yes we have been shambolic in the past, but Murtough et al deserve a chance to prove themselves. With regards to this first window, we were always going to go with what ETH wanted as we haven’t established the long term process for recruitment, and also ETH has a track record of bringing previous players with him to implement his style quicker. Again, I am personally happy with this as we have long lacked a playing style identity and quicker ETH can establish that the better.
It's the weekend, the stock exchange is closed.
How reliable is this source?
As reliable as a chocolate teapot.
Well, not quite that bad. But Tier 3 according to Barca fans. Not very reliable. Roughly on par with The Independent or Evening Standard.
It's the unofficial mouthpiece for Barca like Marca is for Real Madrid.
There's likely to be something in it but as already mentioned its a tier 3 source. The positive is it's a Barca mouthpiece source reporting on a Barca player.
Thanks
I think Raissa Simplicio from Goal Brasil is reliable. The others there i dont know very well so i can't tell fod sure.
Hopefully this is true and everyone can calm down for an hour. (Until the negativity of getting other transfers across the line seeps in)
We have half the squad back in for pre-season Monday right?
I know any new signings are likely internationals so when would they be able to start back? When do the international play get back from holidays?

Following Monday I think. 1 or two might get a few more days though apparently so maybe Wednesday
Despite being based in Catalunya, Diario SPORT isn't that reliable, and I wouldn't consider it Barcelona's mouthpiece. Mundo Deportivo is more of a Barcelona mouthpiece than Diario SPORT. Lluis Miguelsanz, especially, tends to get quite speculative, so I wouldn't put too much weight into his reports. Let's wait and see if the more reliable journalists report on this.
Frenkie de Jong and pogba are two different type midfielder still similar in term of what they do tactically
Actually Manunited need a player like pogba and should have retained pogba and he would have flourished under new manager and spending another 80 m is simply waste of time and money as it has several position to spend
With every change of coach you would have spend to bring in right player but better to find a manger you own the squad and play the squad to it strength rather demand another set of player

If it the Sport tweet about FDJ was reliable people like Ornstein, Stone and Romano would have jumped on it.
It looks like a rumour so far.

He's not going to Chelsea.
Ronaldo being offered to Chelsea/Bayern by his agent according to the piece from Ornstein and Sheldon. I think it would suit both United and Ronaldo if he moved on.
Yes and no. I don't trust us to replace his goals, which would put us in an even more tricky position to start the season.
