This is why I took you to task about your Twitter sources. Had you listened to me and stopped posting random shite rumours, this doesn't happen. There's your lesson, be better.


Well, I felt I discredited that Grealish screen grab, but yes, your correct on this.

Borussia Dortmund have found an agreement with Donyell Malen over a long-term contract. A transfer is very close now. However, Dortmund and PSV are still a bit apart over the fee. PSV want €30M and BVB have offered €25M. Source: @SPORTBILD 

Mbappe to Liverpool is on then!

Aren't we struggling with the balance of overseas v home grown players in the 25 man squad?  

 

Konate has joined though, so you could be right.

 

We currently have

 

Goalkeepers: Alisson, Adrian, Kelleher*

Defenders: Van Dijk, Gomez*, Matip, Davies*, Phillips*, Alexander-Arnold*, Robertson, Tsimikas, Konaté

Midfielders: Henderson*, Fabinho, Thiago, Milner*, Keita, Shaqiri, Oxlade-Chamberlain*

Forwards: Salah, Mane, Firmino, Jota, Origi, 

* Homegrown

 

Back from loan: Grujić, Minamino, Karius, Ojo, Woodburn, Wilson, Awoniyi

 

Under 21 players that don't need to be registered: C Jones, Elliott, N.Williams, R.Williams, Koumetio, Clarkson, Cain, Pitaluga etc

 

On this basis we can only register one more non homegrown player, so its not just financial reasons that are stopping any incomings currently.

In fairness, that difference isn't nothing is it? Sancho will be on significantly higher wages than Konate, and the difference in fee would pay for a Wijnaldum replacement in addition before we needed to sell to buy.

Konate will cost us £52m over 5 years. 

 

Sancho will cost the mancs £260m over the same period.

 

But if you think about it,  it's the same.
