If Darwin hadn't been such a flop every club in Europe would be all over him.

Apparently the 30m figure is his release clause? Would be great value.

Next to nothing really, only 21, and ranked in the top 10 players in Europe for shot and goal creating actions this season.

Bargain.

Missed this bit of news.

He did well in England previously though.

Wasn't that good for us.

He made you a good profit.

 

[Bostonian]

He made you a good profit.

We signed him for 1 million euros and sold him for 1.2 million pounds.

No idea what we've made from the sell on clauses.

Only mention of money came from Coventry owner at the end of last year.

“A large part of that will go to his original club Brighton, everyone seems to think it will go straight in the coffers but it will go down the chain.


Still don't think the price someone might have to pay would match the return you'd get back in the PL.

Yep. Very exciting by the prospects.

Harry Maguire cannot possibly be slabhead anymore.

Code for: He prefers the ridiculous amount of money United are going to give him rather than Champions League football.

Yeah, because I am sure no one else was offering him the kind of money Manchester United are. Not even the richest club in the world, Newcastle United.

Newcastle have issues with PSR.

Arsenal and Tottenham?

Do not offer the insane wages that United offer.

That we used to.

We only have the insane wages on the books because they were handed out before the club stopped handing them out. Onana/Zirkzee/Hojlund/Ugarte/Yoro are all on between £85-120k a week. Don’t expect the £200-350k a week contracts to be handed out like they used to.

Sounds like we are close to signing Ekitike, which should mean Jackson will be off.

Not sure why we aren't all over Mbeumo. He'd be excellent.
