Think we should just give up on De Jong at this stage. Even if we could convince him to join, which doesn't seem likely, Barca are still being problematic on the deferred wage payments.
Get Martinez and Eriksen in and focus on another midfielder. FDJ is an excellent player, but surely there are others who can play the role he does.

Think we'll hang on until about a week or two before deadline and then go for someone else - preferably, United would be looking at alternatives right now.
i dont blame FDJ- If I were owed millions, I would be livid as well.
It sucks, but this one really isn't on united.

By LFMartins86 Go To PostHaven't watched enough of him to have a solid opinion but he was one of the key players for Gil Vicente who had an incredible season that led them to qualify for Europe for the first time.
inshallah
Trincão is in Lisbon since yesterday, they've probably filmed his announcement video today to release it tomorrow when he will probably join the rest of the squad in Algarve.
According to several journalists, it's a bit of a bizarre deal.
3M€ loan fee up front with an 7M€ to be paid at the end of the season for 50% of his rights, Barcelona has a buy back clause of 15M€ at the end of the season, 17.5M€ if triggered on the second season and 20M€ on the the third season.

Well, a certain midfielder currently is a free agent...
Does De Jong even want to go to United? Seen a couple pieces saying he's not that fussed and you'd think, if that's true, United have enough reason to pull the plug.
He wants to stay at Barcelona but he can’t, but he doesn’t want to leave without them paying him what he’s owed. Seems fair to me.
I will be shocked if he’s not a United player by the end of the window. It’s a bluff.

Barca are wild. Can’t even pay people but bringing in a ton of new signings.
I am sorry FF, but I really hope Barca get fucked. Such reckless financial punishment should have consequences.

Frenkie needs to get his pay
It's wild that players are falling over themselves to play for Barca considering their behaviour - re: bad management, pay cuts, deferred wages, etc.
Thing I really don't get is that last season proved that they don't need a shitload of signings to finish comfortably in the CL spots, yet they're betting the farm again
By Dan Go To PostLads is Jules Kounde and upgrade over Nathan Ake?Yes BUT he's not as good as the hype and is prone to brain farts. With that said, he is better than Ake no doubt imo

In 2014, Beckham joined Arsenal's Academy but was released the following year. After his release, he admitted that he no longer wished to pursue a career in football, instead taking up tennis training with Andy Murray. In 2020, however, Beckham announced that he was looking to return to football after a five-year absence. In support of the decision, his father, David Beckham, replaced the tennis court he had previously built at the family home with a football pitch.

Ten Hag held his first press conference of the pre-season tour.
He confirmed that Maguire will remain as captain. Also said he's looking at making signings for midfield and in attack.

If I wasn't still dealing with lost luggage from Lisbon that is. Would have considered an attack if it wasn't for your drone defence.

Such a waste.
Very weird tbh. You'd think he'd hold out 2/3 months for the first Championship jobs to be available.
