I can never understand this mentality

I thought it was very much the other way around, Ole wanted someone like Dembele from Lyon & club didn't pony up the £50m+ required, offered him Mandzukic?

If you’re a good player, having a good season, why would you come to us in January when it means you’re probably going to spend half a season getting frustrated with the incompetence running through the team?

Could be wrong but I thought he wanted him?

Doesn’t look good on the board either way tbf.

The missing piece of the jigsaw imo. Glory beckons.

So this bloke is our Lukaku replacement then?...

Is he really an upgrade?

He’s 33 and hasn’t managed more than 12 goals a season for the last few years

This bloke is the Lukaku replacement pal.

Not good enough.

We should have been in for Haller this summer. I’ve no idea why we weren’t.

Our apparent transfer strategy is to target British players..

It was a joke.

If we need to British, and need a flat track bully, let's get a bid in for Glenn Murray.

Ffs I swear Mourinho wanted this lad as back up to Lukaku before the world cup 2018

Matt Judge and Ed Woodward clearly don't have the ability to complete more than one signing a fortnight.

Agreed. Him and Rakitic in Jan would keep us up and probably get us back in the top 6. I think without reinforcements in Jan we will be in a relegation battle.

Apparently his £85k per week wages may prove a stumbling block.

Starting to think Mou knew what he was talking about ..

Juventus are reportedly commencing talks with Manchester United over a deal for Croatian striker Mario Mandzukic in January.

Sporting director Fabio Paratici is believed to have flown to England for talks with his Old Trafford counterparts in London.

United are looking to tie up a £13million deal for the 33-year-old as they aim for reinforcements to reignite their season, according to La Stampa.

This one is definitely a goer.

From TuttoSport:

Mario Mandzukic non vuole mangiare il panettone. Il suo sogno è andare a Manchester il prima possibile, ovvero già a dicembre, in modo da avere un mese di tempo per ambientarsi nello United, iniziando ad allenarsi prima del trasferimento ufficiale che può avvenire solo dal primo gennaio in poi. Si può fare? Sì, ma solo se le squadre raggiungessero un accordo informale nel quale la Juventus potrebbe concedere al croato questa possibilità. In passato è accaduto che giocatori non ancora ufficialmente tesserati si allenassero con la squadra che stava per farlo (uno dei casi più famosi è forse Thiago Silva che nel dicembre 2008 si aggregò al Milan che non aveva il posto da extracomunitario, liberatosi a fine stagione). Per Mandzukic sarebbe l’occasione per uscire dal grigiore di questi mesi, nei quali è finito ai margini della rosa dopo la turbolenta estate di mercato.

Mario Mandzukic does not want to eat panettone. His dream is to go to Manchester as soon as possible, that is already in December, in order to have a month to settle in United, starting to train before the official transfer, which can only take place from January 1st onwards. It can be done? Yes, but only if the teams reach an informal agreement in which Juventus could grant the Croatian this possibility. In the past it has happened that players who are not yet officially registered train with the team that was going to do it (one of the most famous cases is perhaps Thiago Silva who in December 2008 joined Milan who did not have the position of an extra-community, freed at the end of the season) . For Mandzukic it would be an opportunity to get out of the gray of these months,

He does know where he’s going, right?
