The Official Summer Transfer Rumours and News 2019

I like him way more than most alternatives.

I'm not joking in the slightest when I say he is a better GK than Courtois, Handanovic, etc. Probably Leno too.

Classic first stage of grief here.

Soon you accept it.

Oh yeah, Romero, with those 7 PL games in 4 years, should be a sound choice. lol.

copy-pasting some info from a well known United insider on Reddit (who has broken lots of exclusives before, so this is 99% true)

IN
• Sancho deal could be back on. Seems that the Brandt and Hazard signings are seen as Dortmund preparing to let him go. Belief is it would take between £80m-£100m. However, expect to see news come out slowly that we AREN'T interested as Ed is seemingly trying to play a bit of a game to lower the price by flirting with Bale and Griezmann (this already started yesterday with an Ogden ESPN article).

• AWB deal is on. We've told Meunier we won't be continuing discussions. The AWB deal is quiet a bit further along than reported, and he may now wind up completing first.

• We are the Premier League team that intends to activate Partey's release clause (pending Pogba confirming he plans to stay. Not sure why him going would stop this but that's what is being said.)

• Koulibally is almost certainly not happening. Napoli seem utterly disinterested in selling him. Umtiti still the other pipe-dream, but he seems to want to stay at Barca. Harry Maguire is the backup but will be very expensive.

• We would love to sign De Ligt, but all noise is from his agent trying to drum up money out of Barca. We don't expect him to go anywhere else. We have however said we will meet all demands (which is above Barcas offer and a promise to make him the instant starter).

• Likewise; we have started to monitor the situation with Luka Jovic at Eintracht Frankfurt. Still expected to join Madrid but we may look to sign him if Lukaku leaves. We wouldn't meet their €100m valuation but instead would look to send players to them on loan (Chong an option) or even offer them a discount on a replacement (not sure who they would want/can afford to he honest).

• We absolutely would take Bale on loan if he wants it.

OUT


• Bailly has attracted several offers, but nothing that has met the club valuation.

• Pogba is believed to be staying

• De Gea is going this summer. PSG offer is expected any day now.

• Alexis has an offer from Inter (Juve never reached out formally).

• Lukaku sale to Inter is also becoming possible, but will be dependant upon a suitable replacement being available (and if Icardi would actually leave). Solksjaer seems to not be arsed at all with him.

DDG leaving aside, like all of this. And I'm not as miffed at DDG leaving as I thought I'd be.

I completely forgot about this scrub. Simeone made him look like a potential world-beater for a while.

There wasnt a window we werent linked to him, thats why i temrmber

He isnt the worst player, i want to know how Simeone made Tiago into a world beater lmao

I can assure you that even he won't join

Next up is Manolas, before they bring back Romagnoli

You need psychiatric electric shocks

I'm NOT joking

Koscielny & Umtiti | L'Equipe with claims Arsenal defender could leave, sounds very much like coming from his camp, and be replaced by Umtiti.

United now favourites to land Thomas Meunier #mufc https://t.co/JpX27dkADv

elite signing

Ramos is thinking about joining United


Wan Bisaka- Ramos- De Ligt - Shaw

UFF

if you 're talking about Sergio, I don't want him now. 3 years ago, sure.

Ramos + Bale + 70M for Pogba

I will allow it, anything to get rid of Bale

here's how I realistically expect us to lineup next season

Romero
Meunier Lindelof De Ligt Shaw
Pogba Partey
Sancho Felix Bale (loan)

Realistic and you have Pogba, De Ligt, Sancho, Joao Felix and Bale? Was that a joke that just whooshed over my head?

Might have 2 of those 5, but definitely not all 5. De Ligt will be 80m, Sancho 150m, Joao Felix they said at least 100m I believe and Bale, well 17m gross salary for a more injury prone Robben isn't cheap either.

I'm not kidding when i say that Thomas Partey is an even worse regen of Kessie. Either way, i'd be ecstatic over his move to United, Partey (c) is in the future.

Uff no Sanchez?

You must think he's going to win Oscars!!



Having watched the preview and then making the decision I have only a small desire* to see the full feature. Here's my brief synopsis. Having watched his hero play for Manchester United on many a dodgy steam our young hero finally meets his idol on a rare time when he wasn't in the squad on a matchday or filming pitiful doggy biscuit commercials. Alexis teaches our young hero all the skills needed to reach the top which include quality piano playing for hipster transfer announcements and those four all important words which no Chilean should ever do without when meeting their own future Ed Woodward...."Fifteen million pounds netto" Truly heartwarming. Reviews are tepid.
