PL teams can still sell players, they just cant buy. Of course Man U wouldnt sell Pogba without a replacement, I dont think.

The bigger news to me is that SMS now has at least one less suitor. It’s either Madrid, Juve, or he stays in Lazio. Knowing Lotito, it’ll probably be C.

As reported by colleagues from TuttoUdinese, the Friulians would be ready for the decisive thrust for Moise Kean. In the next hours, Daniele Pradè will propose a 20 million offer to Juventus for the definitive purchase, with recompra in favor of the bianconeri set at 30 million. The negotiation has started and developments are expected.

Love these recompra deals as it givez them more incentive to play and develop our youngster than a straight loan.

If udinese turns 18 yo Kean into juve quality 10 mil is a bargain to pay for playing, training and shaping a player who wouldnt get that space here

If he turns out total shit then we just keep the 20mil we got for an 18 yo.

I have to say, it's pretty funny how Joao Mario has spent months bashing Serie A, and now it looks like there is a good chance he stays. Also, there are rumours he rejected Sarri because he is Italian lol.

And then there is this gem:

Portugal's Joao Mario has endured a tough time at Inter, and he does not want any of his international team-mates to similarly suffer.

Published

Joao Mario insists Portugal's Sporting CP stars are focused on their World Cup opener against Spain, although he warned his team-mates not to head to Serie A if they depart the crisis club.
Sporting have been at the forefront of the news in Portugal in recent weeks, with fans clashing with players as the team missed out on Champions League qualification and lost the Taca de Portugal final.
Coach Jorge Jesus has departed for Al-Hilal, while there are now reports that a number of key men - including Portugal internationals Rui Patricio, William Carvalho, Bruno Fernandes and Gelson Martins - are seeking to have their contracts rescinded.

Joao Mario, a former Sporting midfielder, is confident that the ongoing situation will not affect the team in Russia, but he did have some advice for his team-mates.
"Serie A is out of the question [for them]," he told a news conference, having endured a difficult time with Italian giants Inter.
"But this is not a topic for now. The whole group is focused on what's important: the game with Spain. Most of the players are at the World Cup for the first time and that's a big motivation for all of us.
"All other matters are for after the World Cup."

Unfortunately for Joao, he lost all credibility when the biggest player from his country and the most popular footballer in the world went to Italy.

Do you think a double swoop with Real could work?
Pjanic+A.Sandro for Modric+Marcelo
Real get 2 younger but very good players for 2 players who are not on their "new young look" and apparently not entirely happy to stay
The good - We will be strengthened on 2 positions
The bad - Too many oldies might be a problem to rejuvenate in the future
Of course I`m as a Juve fan would take it as we all want to win now but there are also negatives in it..

Ehm why has everyone forgot about Fred? Fred-Matic or Fred-Matic-Herrera/Lingard is something Man Utd could go for without problem imo.

I think their replacement could be Fred, and yes he is not as offensive but so what? Mou is famous for destroying players.

Ragazzi, let me show you the most fantastic 3-4-3 you've ever witnessed, please god let this happen and on paper we will have the best defense in the world and the best squad in the world too:

Benatia-Bonucci-Chiello
Cancelo-Pjanic-Can/Matuidi-Sandro
Dybala-Ronaldo-Costa

Has Bepps been hiding this mercado? He usually gives us little tidbits to excite us or shut us down. Can't he say "there will be no more arrivals" or "we are still evaluating opportunities"? Literal silence out of Bepps this year.

Is this even serious question ?

It’s laughable to say SMS is better than Pjanic ,he might become better i dont know about it , but current Pjanic is without a doubt better than SMS .

As for Pogba,he is getting way overrated cause he won the w.c , last 2 years he was above average nothing special, Pjanic performances were better , but i guess you are good only as last your 3 games , but anyway saying Pogba is better than Pjanic i can understand even though I disagree, but comparing SMS to Pjanic :lol: ��

Yes, it's a serious question because not too long ago the same people rated Kovacic higher than Pjanic. Before no Kovacic at WC and Pjanic 80m+ rumors happened.

Does your memory only go as far back as 2 yrs ago?

So, Pogba is being overrated bc of WC, but SMS is being correctly rated based solely on WC lol. You guys were salivating and premature ejaculating at the thought of SMS not too long ago.

But being a Kosovar, you're excused for hating on a Serb.
