Transfer thread

yeah that's why loaning odobert out to another's medical team to rehab would be great ! also we can reduce the stress on our medical and rehab team for some proper rebuilding.

No one is buying (loaning) a player actively rehabbing an ACL injury, we'd have to give him away for free or more like pay them for the pleasure.
 
How much do we realistically think we’ll get for Romero? It has to be around the £80m mark, surely?

If that’s the case, you’d imagine that money would go a long way towards funding a move for Tonali, while the fees from Dragusin, Vicario and, I assume, Sarr would help cover the Brighton lad and a new goalkeeper.

My question is whether that really shows ambition from the owners, or if it’s simply a case of reinvesting money raised through player sales. When reports mention £200m-£300m being available to spend, is that on top of any money generated from sales, or does that figure include it?

the truth is nobody knows and the devil is in the details.
reported wages itself is interesting because it means EVERYONE employed by the THFC, who probably have the biggest staff payroll list because of extra non-football stadium and event operations.

If United are interested 80m might be possible i guess but otherwise I think it'd be around the 50m mark

With Romero the question is of demand. Is he in high demand by clubs who can pay a good fee. There hasn't been much chat or speculation in that regard but it be because a deal is essentially already done or maybe there isn't anyone for whom he is a priority right now. I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens.

It's like @billyiddo says really. Big clubs here have seen he is a liability for various reasons and won't be paying that sort of fee - but of course Man U are known to pay stupid fees so perhaps they could help.

Abroad there is no one who will be paying 80m for a CB....

You’re forgetting the LW and CF positions.

Besides, who really cares if we spend all of our transfer budget or not? As long as get the players RDZ has identified, then the less we spend the more we have available for another window.

I wouldn’t want most of the posters on here being anywhere near control of the club’s finances.

So you just want us to not post anything and not discuss anything? Ok that’s great 👍🏻

Not at all…my comment was a response to your comment, to which you are absolutely invited to reply to.

I’m not shouting anyone down, just putting my opinion out there…

…and that is if we can get our targets in for less than the max amount we have budgeted, why is that not a good thing?

Note: the last sentence wasn’t necessarily directed at you but more of a general comment about plenty of posters declaring a “lack of ambition” if we don’t spend all our money.

I am absolutely speculating here, but it feels like Romero's made it quietly clear he does not want to be in the Prem and wants to play in Spain, which suggest it will be a 40-50 deal with AM or possibly even RM? Again, just guessing here...
