Raiola will make it difficult no doubt, and whoever gets him will have to pay through the nose for him! Haaland is an absolute monster... Seeing him in the Premier League would be amazing. I specifically went out of my way to watch a few Dortmund games last season, specifically because he's such a talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, and the new DOF appointment essentially reset everything for both manager and player searches. Brilliant to watch from the outside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) Quote Manchester United have had a £67m bid for England winger Jadon Sancho turned down by Borussia Dortmund. The German club want about £77.5m for the 21-year-old, with an additional £4.25m bonus payment on top. BBC Sport also understands that in addition to the fee not being high enough, United wanted to pay it over five years when Dortmund are only willing for it to extend to four. United are now considering whether to revise their offer. I could have told them £67m wasn’t going to be enough.

MachoFantastico Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 The whole Sancho/Manchester United saga is getting old real fast. Why did they seriously think £67million would be enough to convince Dortmund to sell him. Seems like just a stunt on United's part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's actually gotten stuck somewhere in the pace-time continuum. Our children's children will grow up with an implicit recognition of the Sancho to Manchester United saga but none of them will know what it means or whence it came. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 It would be funny if United refuse the apparent £77m price tag until the last day, try and get him to be told it’s now £95m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Man Utd under Fergie always used to put in low bids. The difference between then and now is that they don’t have the pull they used to. Before if a club turned down a bid from them players would moan and be disillusioned, forcing the hand of the selling club. Now players just carry on, as Utd aren’t winning trophies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Another top notch player reveal by Barca? Apparently you can buy the Depay jersey on their online shop before the player has been presented.

HanoiVillan Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 That Football Database website that @villa4europe mentioned is very addictive. From reading it obsessively, I can now bring you up to date that Gary Hooper has moved from Kerala Blasters to Wellington in the A-League*, that Yaya Toure has become Assistant Manager at Akhmat Grozny in Chechnya (brave man) and that Maicon has signed with a club playing in the Sammarinese league. *Perhaps Kerala Blasters needed to cheer themselves up, and that's why they signed a guy called Sanjeev Stalin. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
