Frenkie De Jong to United 95% done!

Hasn’t Kessie signed for Barca but they just can’t register him yet?

Yeah. I said should’ve, not should

Chase de Jong for £80m while his replacement moved for free months ago. United are awesome at this transfer lark.

If the roles were reversed and it was us desperate to move on our highest earner when only one team are interested and can afford his ridiculous wages.
When it’s known we cannot move on with our summer rebuilding unless we move him on…
Barcelona have already unsettled their player we should start signing our other targets.

We’d end up giving them a new contract on improved terms.

We clearly need at least 2 midfielders this summer after departures, bid for the other one and make Barca sweat.

Dunno. Fits with Arnold alluding to something unrelated to the deal holding things up though.

Don’t see why it stops us doing other business.

Spanish football has properly brexited itself with these self imposed financial restrictions

Missed liverpool. Apart from a stage managed pregame performance and the odd minute as the game ends, anfield is usually like a morgue.

How can that be true, given Barca will have their own deadline due to their financial issues with the Spanish league. Both clubs have the motivation to get it done pretty soon rather than draw it out to the end of the window.

The tax years starts in April.

All companies have different financial years in terms of their accounting.

Imagine if players contracts ran from April 1st each year.

I thought the issue was they needed to get his wages off the books.
