Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano): Manchester United have sent new bid to Everton for Jarred Branthwaite tonight: £45m fixed fee plus £5m add-ons. The proposal is formal and official, as @ChrisWheelerDM has reported. ↪️ Everton insist on £65/70m price for Branthwaite, no deal again at this stage

Incredible
So 48 + 10 this gets done? Just pulling these numbers out of my ass
Our sporting department takes first day back to Carrington seriously lmao
I don’t even care if this happens or not. I do like how we are active and assertive. Still lots to happen before passing judgement, but I like the initial signs of the new management atleast in relation to transfer dealings
A well began as half done
Dude’s already 1 day late to training just bring him in
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?
Are… are we… competent again?!
I think this gets done for something like £55m plus £10m in reasonable add ons. It’s strange to see us moving so efficiently.
We are actually doing more then one deal at a time, the dark days are truly over

damn.
just to clarify about the last part, what does he mean by ‘no deal again at this stage’? is he just saying that it’s likely gonna be/it’s been rejected?
i think we should go in with one final offer, like 50m + 10m add ons (5m easy and then another 5m in harder ones).
Feels like its gonna close on 55+5 like transfers from last summer.
I feel like we’re using this deal as a “we won’t pay United tax anymore”. Bid a couple times, say price is too much and walk away.
£65-70m is way too high for someone so unproven, £45-£55m would be a good deal
Unfortunately this reminds me a bit of the Mount saga last summer. Not sure why we submitted this unless we have true intentions of walking away now, they were never going to accept that
Edit: feel free to downvote but at least come up with a decent counter argument
It’s time to move on from this transfer, 65/70 million is an insane ask for a guy who will likely not start for us.
Shame were desperate for next season with him having 2 years left on contract bet he’d cost half next summer
Put the word back out there that we back up.
Fine but I really hope the club walks away if Everton rejects this. This is about the limit as to what they should spend on him
They’re going for a 5 player reveal. Jim is so keen on saving the pennies it’ll be 1 press conference, 5 new signings. Only need to book for one film day/photography shoot.
It seems like there is going to be a big shake up with formation and tactics! I think we’re also bringing in players capable of playing more than one position and willing and able to fight to play every week. I hope Man Utd are about to adopt an earn the right to play policy and if you don’t train well that week… The best 11 gets selected and NO ONE will be undroppable. We’re obviously trying to create depth worthy of competing in every competition and not just buying players with a guarantee they get to start every week. I hope this will breed a hunger and a mentality that we have been missing for a very long time!
Martinez, De Ligt, JB and Maguire sounds like a solid CB lineup to me
Yes please
I don’t rate him
We should use the money we get from Greenwood to purchase Ugarte, not this guy. I hope that this offer will be the last offer on this deal if we have to make this deal.
So what you’re telling me is we’re working on 3 deals at a time? I can’t believe it
Bruh they do know that they are in serious danger of getting relegated next season right? Take the money or maybe it’ll 15 mil in a season lol
