[Pedro Sepúlveda] Exclusive. Cristiano Ronaldo just arrived to @selecaoportugal training facilities. He's still in Lisbon after missing @ManUtd first pre-season day. Ronaldo's future is still uncertain. He wants to play @ChampionsLeague

Same thing Lukaku did the summer he was sold but this one loves the club so much and he's a consummate professional.

How are you even sure the much-talked-about move to Man City was close to happening? It was likely a move well-orchestrated to get our sentimental ass to the table.

I doubt pep ever wanted Ronaldo self

What really happened was, Mendes was looking for a club that will get his client out of Juventus. He shopped him to United, RM and PSG in that order and all 3 initially rejected him. Then, Jorge took advantage of the fact that City's Kane plan had fallen through to pitch Ronaldo to them again as a 1-year rental. City offered 250K a week (50% of his wage demands) and 1 year (Ronaldo wanted 2 years) and City did not want to pay a transfer fee to Juventus.

Mendes, upon seeing the offer, reverted to United asking if they wanted the player. United upon seeing that Pep could atleast temporarily sort out his striker issue (following the Kane debacle) rushed in to prevent that so they offered the 2 year contract and 500K a week wage demand and then offered to pay Juventus £26M for his transfer fees.

City immediately seeing what Mendes did, retracted their verbal offer for Ronaldo.

I'm not sure we have an option. Imagine 3 clubs engaging in a bidding war for Raphina. This window is a mess. We don't stand a chance to contend for the good deals except they're players with a relationship with Ten Hag.

The other option is to pay over the top for players.
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Oasis007(m): 8:00pm On Jul 04, 2022
Even though I adore CR7 and consider him a GOAT, I think ETH should let him go, but not for free.

Apparently, he doesn't wanna play for us again! He definitely wanna be in UCL next season cos he has got Record to protect.

As far as Messi is still balling, CR7 won't dare to hang boot. If Barca ain't fuckin broke, Bayern would have sold Lewy to them by now and ask for CR7 as replacement.

We knew Pogba and Matic were going months before last season ended. We are yet to sign their replacement.
Let's assume they're plans to get their replacements since it was known already, don't you think it's ups our budget adding a striker to the list?

Fabrizio Romano: Structure of the add-ons still to be discussed as personal terms too, salary reduction very unlikely - so, nothing has changed yet for Frenkie de Jong deal on Monday.

Man Utd and Barça still in contact, no negotiations yet on player side.

You thought we’d have gone for Nkuku before he renewed his contract had Ronaldo signaled his desire to leave earlier.

You’re expecting too much from the Glazers.

They’d rather Martial fill that position than buy a new player.

Dem no send the club.

The sooner everyone here recognizes this fact, the better they’ll sleep at night.

The team that bulldozed their way to the Premier League has already signed two top players to strengthen an already strong squad.

While Man United parades McFred as their defensive midfielders and endlessly toasting De Jong who is actually a very wild card, Man City has Rodri and is set to add Kalvin Philips.

While City has brought in Haaland and gotten rid of Jesus who simply wasn’t up to the task, United has Martial coming back from a failed loan spell to continue earning £250k/wk, money that Harry Kane and Sadio Mane couldn’t earn in EPL.

Foden is at the top of his game, but United has Greenwood struggling to not get sent to jail.

City is unapologetically plugging the loopholes, despite winning the league, while United is rubbing McTominay and Maguire’s back.

City were nothing when Ronaldo left United in 2009. Now their team, from U-16 to Senior Squad is dominating England.

Honestly, a player of Ronaldo’s caliber should have absolutely nothing to do with current Man United if it were not for blind loyalty to Alex Ferguson.

Because of them, Mr. Champions League will be playing in the Europa League for the first time in his 20yr old footballing career if he decides to stay, a 5-time Balon D’Or winner.

On two occasions last season, Ronaldo scored a hat trick to keep United in front after Maguire and Co could not do their job at the back consecutively. Both matches ended 3-2, with United scoring first.

De Gea swallowed 56 goals last season. 56! Lord have mercy.

That quote about keeping the right company or risk failure is 100% true.
.

Lol @the bolden grin
Despite David De Gea saving over 100 goal-bound shots from poor defending led by a mediocre Harry Maguire.

I am surprised you guys can't see the problem, the problem is Erik Ten Hag , he is narrow minded. United new policy is for coaches to identify players who can fit in to the (the coaches) style of play. But this coach only wants players he is familiar with. Before Ragnick left they identified and scouted players like Reuben Neves, Konrad Leiner, Bissouma, Raphinha,Darwin Nunez,Boubakar kamara, Ibrahim Sagnare and a whole bunch of other quality players. But this coach wants none of them. Before Ragnick left he identified that the core of the team is soft, mourinho said the same before he left, this coach has done nothing to correct this , he seems to think that this crop of players can improve because they finished second the season before.
.

Let ETH sign players that will play his kinda style, so he will not give us excuses later.

Darwin Nunez from my observation, wanted a UCL club, from Benfica, which Liverpool was his favourite.

Sadly, we missed out on Julian Alvarez during the January transfer window, yet another good striker from River Plate to our city rivals, Man City.

Now, we have a chance of signing 19year old Gabriel Veron from Palmeiras for a cheap transfer fee believed to be around £10M.
Veron can play anywhere in the front 3, or behind strikers, he can dribble, he is quick, comfortable with a ball at his feet.

If ETH wants Frankie de Jong, he has his reasons for that, we hope the deal is completed, otherwise we have good DMs in bundesliga if FDJ deals fails.
But players nowadays seems to favour moving to UCL clubs instead of Europa.

▫️ Man Utd & Barça agreed €65m fixed fee but still discussing on €20m add-ons structure;
▫️ Personal terms never discussed yet;
▫️ Frenkie’s priority has always been to stay at Barça;
▫️ Salary reduction ‘very unlikely’ option on Frenkie side

United will have to pay him close to £400k/week, but no wahala since he is the only players that can play Ten Hag style. 51 days and counting grin...
.

£400K for what?

Can't our scout go to South America or even Bundesliga there in Europe &get a highly rated DM at a fair price&personal terms?
Man utd always involve in some annoying protracted Transfer saga over the years in every Transfer window.
