European window closes tonight, i suspect tonight might be more interesting?

Doesn't that apply to them signing players? Not sure it means players leaving too? I could be wrong

Yes thats what it means, so they wont be able to get replacements in if they do sell. It also effects DDG.

 

[Unhappy438]

Haha surely this cant be right? But its the same guy who first reported the Martial bid

BREAKING: Manchester United and Monaco agree €60m plus €20m bonuses for Anthony Martial.

Sky sources understand Anders Lindegaard is due to undergo a medical at West Bromwich Albion this afternoon, with a view to a free transfer from Manchester Utd.

That translate button is just something special...

So, looks like we're stuck with Romero? if De Gea leaves?

 

[Neoprod]

no panic buys he says and we're paying 36m pounds for a 19 year old no one's heard of before...does not compute.

From Monaco mind you, who let us have Falcao at 200k p/w on LOAN...*sigh*

Apparently (and i stand to be corrected) he has no goals this season as well - like Rooney

 

[Galactica]

Yup was just about to post that, 50 million euros. A few reliable journalists have reported it.

50 million on an unknown 19 year old?? Utd have too much money, panic buy.

Falcao? He scored against Palace last Saturday.

 

[zahpat]

I think he meant Martial

The panic buy thing doesn't makes any sense, he's too young, its an investment for the future.

I check he got 9 last season with 35 apps and nothing,zero,zilch,nada this season so far

 

[dbecks]

Darmian was pretty unknown to alot of us - could we get the same change out if this guy?

 

[Unhappy438]

Ok English press now reporting fee has been agreed for £36m

[Unhappy438]

£36m fee for Anthony Martial confirmed. On his way to M/C. LVG scouting him for a year. Monaco knocked out of CL brought it to head.

Fee for Martial is £36m. Move accelerated after Monaco were knocked out of Champions League qualifiers last week.

[RanzB]

Well, ****. No idea what to think.

 

[Unhappy438]

Well, ****. No idea what to think.

I have a sneaky feeling there will be another signing.

 

[RanzB]

I have a sneaky feeling there will be another signing.

I never thought we wouldn't buy more, especially with (ahem) our net spend and so many departures. Obviously if we've been scouting this lad it's a good sign, and the fee isn't insane in context. But still, no idea what to think.

And yeah, I do think/hope there will be another signing too.
