paul514 Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 On the Kone and Sancho stories…. Kone is a highly rated DM, personally he isn’t one of my favourites. Sancho I can’t see happening at all with some caveats….. firstly if they paid 85 million for him there will still be 51 million left on his book value, if that is pounds then I think that makes a deal incredibly unlikely. They know they will make a loss but they won’t want to make a book loss. secondly if it’s euros it is more feasible to us. thirdly there are clauses that make his fee higher, they may be close to some like playing 100 games for example that could make a deal more likely. lastly his wages will be very high, he would have to be very motivated for personal/football reasons to drop his wage to a level we are happy to pay him.

I like the idea of a cheeky bet on Sessegnon by the club if it was a 'cheap' deal, not as a left back but a left midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho is a very very good player and if he can be had for less than 50 million pounds is absolutely someone we should attempt to sign. As I said his numbers are basically slightly more than a goal or assist every other game in the prem. He can take players on and he's very good in terms of keeping possession and mjvibg the ball about in tight spaces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Net book value of £43.8m left. I can see them accepting around £50m for the player, but them wanting to cover the salary they'll owe him because he didn't request a transfer. That's the stumbling block as the remaining salary is worth over £54m itself. We might offer to cover some of it, and that may lead us to be able to offer him a lower (affordable) salary, with the expectation that he'll reach his true potential under Emery.

Supervillan78 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 (edited) I think Sancho would a phenomenal signing. There have been several credible links to elite caliber players in this window already, so it wouldn’t necessarily be completely beyond the realms of fantasy, although it remains somewhat unlikely.

Villa Gaffa Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Now the transfer window is open hopefully we can move Sanson and Nakamba on pretty quickly. Then Davis, Hause, Wesley and Traore. Followed by Olsen. That would be a decent clean out of the players that are not good enough for us currently. Keep Chambers for his utility and experience.

A quick look at the Twitter account and it’s just full of clickbait nonsense. Villa having £££ and high ambitions didn’t seem to matter much to Asensio. I’d be surprised if Man Utd sold Sancho this summer but if he did leave I’d imagine he’d go back to Dortmund. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar transfer values mooted, although the wages are a huge difference. Sancho has a problem at Man U as they're set up to play with Rashford on the left, who is a different type of player. He has had some injury issues which has meant that when he has built up form and started playing well that momentum has been checked. For me the problem with Sancho is injuries may be a concern.
