Made a bid for Hummels? http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/550620/Manchester-United-Mats-Hummels-bid-transfer-news
Rumours we've secured a deal to sign Aymeric Laporte from Bilbao. He's a decent CB from what I've seen of him in La Liga. A proper footballer rather than simply a defender. But at age 20 he's another one for the future.
This one isn't going away in the sporting press - Messi to us in the Summer......................... This from the Telegraph - "The sportswear company also sponsor Messi and after teaming up with United to be their shirt supplier, next season, they could be about to marry the two. It's claimed that Adidas could stump up the £200m release clause in Messi's contract at Barca, and will also help out with his extortionate wages." Added to the reports that we could see Pique return, it would be quite an interesting Summer window. It won't happen of course, but that has never stopped the press before.
Bollocks will adidas pay for him. They may help a bit with his wages, in the form of extra sponsorship for the player, but they are already paying us £75m a year which they would certainly expect us to use to buy high profile players! It's another pointless rumour anyway - same basis as Nike being willing to sign Ronaldo for us a couple of years back, just so he would be playing in Nike kit again.
Rumours of Van Gaal offering a contract for Ched Evans to come to United were quashed this morning. "There is no way, the idea repluses me, it would be a violation of all I hold dear and a total slap in the face for the standards I uphold.."..... Said Ched Evans
What an awesome double team that would make. And they could help get each other's stories straight afterwards...
http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/421834/Manchester-United-transfer-latest We've signed Dragovic for 20m apparently. Don't know anything about him except he's a CB
He's rubbish Why would Basel sell him to Dynamo Kyiv and not a big club to get more money before asking you lot to pay £ 20 mill ? He is no Skrtel, that is for sure. He also got in trouble for hitting someone on the head (apt seeing as he sounds like a baddy off Street Fighter), mind you, Rojo likes glassing people so he may be fine and in good comapny Lovren>Dragovic I wouldnt bother but like to see you waste money so go ahead
Of course any player that the RS buy will be world class and any bought by United will be crap... We all remember how in summer most of the RS thickos here had said how each player bought by Brenda was fantastic and the best in their position. They even welcomed tagliatelle and said how Brenda was going to turn him into the best striker in the league. #crapjudgementbyRS
Manchester United winger Nani insists he IS wanted back at Old Trafford Nani said: "The club know my value and I know they want me to stay. "It was me who made the choice to leave the club and it was a good decision by me because I knew if I stayed one more season at Old Trafford, it would be very hard for me. "I just need someone to believe in me, trust me and my qualities, and give me an opportunity to show them on the pitch. "It's an experience I wanted a lot and needed as well because the last two seasons at Manchester United I had so many injuries and I was very upset with a lot of things that happened to me. "I was missing my family and friends and I wanted something new. The only opportunity I had to be happy, and Manchester United to be happy as well, was this one."
