Or.... Friday is going to be very silly.
Manchester United and Chelsea have stepped up talks over a potential Ben Chilwell move to Old Trafford, separate to negotiations over Jadon Sancho and Raheem Sterling.
The two clubs have been in constant negotiation over the last two days, as both attempt to resolve numerous remaining squad issues in the last 72 hours of the transfer market.
This all a big PSR dodge now?
Moves for Sterling and Chilwell seem completely out of sync with what we've been doing all summer.

What would be the point of a PSR dodge for United? Afaiw they aren't close to getting a penalty and as it is the end of the window it's not like they could suddenly unlock a bunch of extra signings

Afaiw they aren't close to getting a penalty and as it is the end of the window it's not like they could suddenly unlock a bunch of extra signingsI can't imagine United are in any danger on the financials front. But transfers for these players don't really make sense considering we've been trying to reduce our wage bill and sell off our injury prone, expensive players.
By Laboured Go To PostAlright Juve get the Sancho thing done now thanks.Paves the way for Nunez to join Arsenal.
By Xpike Go To PostSeems Ramsdale is off to SouthamptonWe're not a serious club, we're signing somebody called Tickle to replace him.

By WoodenLung Go To PostSociedad already spending their Merino moneyWe've also been rumored with him.
a bunch has, even city the other day. only actual bids are from girona (been rejected) and now sociedad though.
but would be nice with a bidding war. i think 20m is entirely too much, so lets sell

By Xpike Go To PostThink everyone would love Zubi but he doesn't want to moveUnless Arteta convinces him with his sweet dulcet tones

I'm sure Juventus will honour their obligation to buy and haven't inserted some clause about Sancho having to pass penis inspection day before any deal is completed
10m for Chiesa is a good deal. Excited to see him play. Hope we get to see him on the pitch sooner rather than later.

Right. Obligation to buy… under certain conditions I’m sure.
By WoodenLung Go To PostSociedad already spending their Merino moneySam Lee said City were maybe interested in him as well.
Edit: Ahh, sorry maybe it was Ornstein (I see the follow up post by Wooden).
Since we're theorycrafting additional clauses, I think he should have to dive off a really high diving board on February 14th.
Chiesa signing seems like a no-brainer at that price. Even if he's barely fit why not when the fee is like £10-15m.

Probably because wages are in the £40-50m region over a 4 year contract.
By Laboured Go To PostProbably because wages are in the £40-50m region over a 4 year contract.I've seen tweets put the annual wage at around 7m EUR, which would be half that. Gross wage I should add
By Laboured Go To PostAlright Juve get the Sancho thing done now thanks.I'm tired Robbie 😔
By rossonero Go To PostTammy Abraham? That's the best they could've come up with? Come the f0ck on….
By Scum Go To PostHas Tonali scored yet?No, but Newcastle have after about 18 seconds
By FortuneFaded Go To PostNo, but Newcastle have after about 16 secondsNottm Forest pls
By Scum Go To PostHaha guess they were desperate, they refused to pay that a week ago.
By Plasma Go To PostI bet we go out and buy a 2nd and 3rd choice keeper now but no forward.
