    I’m surprised no PL club has taken a chance on him. He’s only 30. Liverpool almost paid £59M for him 2-3 years ago.

    Sounds like he has a massive attitude problem and/or has completely fallen out of love with the game.

    His contract at Sevilla was terminated after just 3 months after apparently a host of disciplinary issues and failure to turn up to training.

    Now reports suggest he really tried to pull a fast one on Union Berlin after they'd already agreed terms and completed his medical.

    Seems to have gone full Dele Alli. Never go full Dele Alli.

    A transfer that seemingly went really under the radar during the window -

    Azzedine Ounahi, one of the breakout stars of the World Cup for Morocco, joined Marseille for just €8m (plus €2m add ons) and he’s scored on his debut with a lovely goal.

    Amazed they got him for so cheaply and seemingly with no competition. Looks a real classy player.

    Lots of teams looked at him and Leeds supposedly bid £21m for him. Very strange.

    Apparently Angers said to Leeds and Napoli they wanted £20million for him. Weird he only went for £10million in the end.

    Stranger still is that Chelsea didn't sign him for £93m on a 400-year contract.

    Weren't we linked to him early in the window? Pretty sure I mentioned him in passing in the transfer thread

    ...yup, we were

    Anyone with money seems to get off of any rape/ attempted rape charges nowadays.

    Wonder what Utd will do though, I don’t think they’ll play him, they can’t essentially sack him but might pay up his contract?

    I think that they can still sack him, but will they? Reputational damage to the club.
    We've all heard the recording and seen the pictures. I think he'd lose a court case over it.

    Manyoo statement:
    Manchester United notes the decision of the Crown Prosecution Service that all charges against Mason Greenwood have been dropped.
    The club will now conduct its own process before determining next steps. We will not make any further comment until that process is complete.

    Ched Evans and Thomas Partey trending on Twitter RN

    I take it that somebody needs to explain to every single commentator why Partey might be trending RN, since they seem to have convenient amnesia for every away game he plays...

    Not before he has dealt with the crime far more heinous
    than alleged rape : the alleged fraud of Fabio Paratici ...
