Michy Batshuayi

I was being largely hypothetic about the Man U duo. Even though Mourinho won't favour them, I don't think they will be available till next summer

Wimmer was a very low profile player from a team near the bottom of the Bundesliga, while Alder was actively being pushed out by Athletico (remember Soton had a clause to make his loan permanent, before we found a loophole). They were both very different situations to the star man for a club that's in quite serious financial trouble, and essentially needs the maximum windfall to stabilise the club. He's a Berbatov/Modric/Bale for them - they'll squeeze every penny and know the optimum time to sell will be late August.

Let's see. If the groundwork on the deal is done far enough in advance, these circumstances can be mitigated against. Of course if interest in a player only has started now that's a different thing altogether and yes of course the selling club has the upper hand.
Let's see if The Goat is correct...
 
Just to mention that the Nike kit deal has been announced (reported in The Times today, see Northumberland and New Kit threads) and The Goat said a week or so ago it was done....The Goat also said a deal for Michy Batshuayi would be sorted out after the cup final......

Well, I guess the part about not signing before the cup final was true.

Is there going to be a separate ITK thread on here this summer, similar to previous windows?

Don't think there's any point, it's been years since any of them came out with anything truly itk (prob the Nelson/Saha news). Just stick the itk in the general transfer gossip thread.

We could have a thread for those that are genuinely ITK, but it would be a very short one. Those that give daily updates are not.
 
As stated previously, no to this guy.

We need a forward.......but

I see very little in the videos of quality.

Bang average.....we will all end up hating him.

I kinda agree, if he was to cost 10 mill then it's worth the gamble but 31 mill plus as is rumoured? No thanks.

Also like Son, he is one we have been monitoring since before Poch arrived. I remember us being linked when he was at a Belgium club, Liege I think.

Back-up are supposed to be disposable. Look at Bony at City, or Naughton or Vorm with us. A couple of seasons and move them on when they start getting disgruntled
