Also been linked with Redondo's son I see.
As someone who grew up in the 90's can I say "Get it done!" His dad was a dream player, absolutely fantastic. Just having that name on the back of a United shirt would fulfill a 25 year long fantasy.

I remember a tabloid article recently profiling all the signings we've made over £50m. The conclusion reached that it was difficult to argue with was the vast majority of them were total flops.
We seem no closer to securing a DOF or transfer chief. And clearly Erik cannot be trusted in the transfer market. So while we are in limbo it would make a lot of sense to use our scouting team and fill out the ranks with some promising youngsters. We've already got deals lined up to sell Hannibal and Alvaro Fernandez so that is about £20m and you'd imagine we will sell Pellistri as well which might be another £10m or so. Put that money towards 3-5 promising youngers in the £5-£10m range and structure with various add-ons to keep the initial fee and risk down and a few years down the line maybe 1 or 2 of them will be able to make an impact the way Garnacho and Mainoo have been doing this season. And if not we can at least recoup much of our money or sell for a small profit.

www.football365.com/news/haaland-transfer-real-madrid-strategy-man-city-agent-talksWell-connected recruitment expert Bryan King recently revealed that Haaland was one phone call away from joining Man Utd earlier in his career. “I said to Haaland’s dad that I’d love him to go over to Everton so we could have a look at him, and sure enough we managed to work it,” King told the Inside Track. “He came over for three or four days and did okay, but the general opinion was that because of his size, would he be as effective? “But Man United should have definitely signed Haaland. I know the chief Scandavavian scout at United and he worked really hard to get him over there. “There was a mix-up at the end of the season and a lot of people were on holiday at United. They were told that they had to ring Molde at a certain time in the morning. “The guy who was handling Haaland’s deal from Molde to Salzburg was Jim Solbakken and he has good connections with Man United. He said that if the call is not in by 10 o’clock, then Haaland will go to Salzburg. “The people at United who made the call made it an hour late. They should have rung at nine but they rang at 10, which is 11 in Norway. That caused the deal not to go through!” - Crazy if true.

Seeing quite a bit of talk about Eze from Palace.
I think he could work for us…

Would like to give Amad a proper run in the side between now and end of the season and then re-assess.
Priorities this summer should be: a) A midfielder to play alongside Mainoo. SJR isn't a fan of Casemiro and we are rumoured to want to give him a payoff this summer to get him off our books. Amrabat hasn't really impressed and we can at least just send him back to Fiorentina. Eriksen is past it. We should be selling Scotty to raise funds. And I guess we will have to keep Mount around as a squad player. b) A young central defender to play alongside Martinez. c) A second striker to replace Martial and give Hojlund some competition. d) A proper goalkeeper
Problem is the way things are going we won't have our CEO in place until the summer, we still don't have a DOF or a transfer chief, Erik is still in charge, so I cannot imagine us getting any of the signings above right. But if we don't strengthen then we will continue to be a mid table team.

ETH does know there is other teams with players we can sign other from Ajax, right?
Tracking FC is interesting in Ajax Striker Brain Brobbey.

Would be astounded if he is allowed to go back there for shopping again unless the terms are 100% in the clubs favour His agent also needs to be told where he can go aswell. He has made a tidy sum from the club

'Saudi club Al-Nassr prepared to bid for Manchester United's Aaron Wan-Bissaka'.
Get him gone.
