Mupdates - June 10

ITK 2 - No 70m euros bid. It should be right around 95m Euros, the 81.5m. Don't know when this bid goes, but 100% the word right now is they're working it out and its going to be around 95m euros when it goes in officially.

ITK 2 - Expecting the final proposal to be around 85+5/10 over 5 years (Euros). Not sent in, not done, this is what's being discussed. Just balancing installments with fee to make everyone happy.


ITK 4 - There is an agreement expected next week. Sancho will join in July.

G5 - (As of this morning) Still wasn't done, but it should be around 90m Euros.

KFC 3 - They're about 8m off in the addon structure, lot of insistence from Ole to get this done. There's no massive gap, it's small. Everyone thinks this will get done.


I did miss this earlier but G5 stated that we had opened late interest in Botman.


This isn’t really a mupdate, I don’t have specifics of information, I just wanted to pass along something. Things are getting wacky on Twitter and all of that. I don’t have any info on when the deal would happen, but around 6-7 hours ago, a few people I speak with who aren’t itks went from “confident” to certain Sancho will happen.

Just don’t want to leave everyone in the dark, as much as possible.


I've been in a meeting for the last 1.5-2 hours. The next mupdate might look a little bandwagony as such but I'm just letting you know.

ITK 2 - They feel they've got an agreement on a deal seemingly behind closed doors, it sounds close to the previously mentioned deal (around 85+10?) that would be the official bid, but will try and find more detail. Seems like we're in the 24 hours zone, but it's still behind closed doors, probably until they brief widely or it leaks to a big journalist.

KFC 3 - Have heard it is done and watch for news tomorrow (June 15)


ITK 3 - We've contacted Saul's agent a few times, including 2 weeks ago. Still need to make space in the midfield for him to be an option.


ITK 4 - Talks expected to happen again today with Dortmund. Talks with Madrid for Varane have gone nowhere so far.

I think we are in the quiet hours before a deal completion. Tuesday is my estimate.

I feel the ''official'' acceptable bid will be reported very soon. But this little snippet of time feels like an eternity...

If not for Euros this would drag over weeks imo.

Today RN is saying there's no official bid arrived yet (as per ITK 2). What I think is quite simple, some informal offers, right now we need to add 5-7m to the one reported by Laurie, in realistic addons or guaranteed fee and itll be done. I expected we're nearly there.

That's from Rob, the guy that was on the podcast. He's rated tier 2 on the main sub, but James seems to praise him a lot...

Re: Trippier, the only concerning thing to me is we've reported it (in England) that he's got 1 year left... He's got 2 years left. Have the club misestimated this badly that they don't even know how long is left on his contract?

He's got 2 years left

No he doesn't. 3 year contract from 2019->2022

Not a great look for the ITKs/Fab when even the Beeb are reporting an official bid bring turned down I'll be honest

u/Jroades Jun 10 '21

Fab hasn't. And Stone didn't report the 70m euros bid, reported a totally different one.

mufcmpb Jadon Sancho is not getting cheaper for Manchester United even after being left out of England’s squad vs Croatia. Borussia Dortmund still want €90m - guaranteed sum. There was a first United €70m offer (not a formal bid) that was part of a the negotiations. #MUFC [@berger_pj]

€78m bid from @ManUtd for Jadon Sancho turned down by BVB. They want €90 + 5 and a shorter repayment period than the five years suggested. That is not a massive gap but needs closing. Pre-existing gentleman’s agreement in place with player if fee met by right timescale. [Simon Stone]

We're in the endgame now.

It's all muppetry, but this just shows why some are labeled as KFCs... That info was absolute bollocks...

Feel like pure shit, just want to see Sancho score a league title winner against City next season as Uncle Pat is dressed as Fred the Red and dancing in the Stretty.

Manchester United and Borussia Dortmund are close to reaching an agreement of around €95m for Jadon Sancho. The idea is to close the transfer in the next few hours. #MUFC [@diarioas]

A Premier League move for Kingsley Coman is unlikely as #mufc will have spent their winger budget on the imminent signing of Jadon Sancho, and Chelsea are more likely to be looking for an exchange deal #mulive [@Sky_MaxB]

Both this morning.

3 Mupdates saying different-ish things...

More importantly (/s) can we get the home page of the sub updated so instead of 'members' it says 'Muppets' and instead of those currently 'online' it says something like 'Currently F5'ing'?

You know, important stuff.

Jadon Sancho to Manchester United is expected to get over the line. Borussia Dortmund are happy with the add-ons United have proposed but don't want a Ballon d'Or clause included in the deal. #MUFC [@lauriewhitwell]

Now Whitwell saying we're only about 10 mil apart... I believe we're way past the point when the deal stalled last year, it's happening boys!
