#mufc have spoken to Raphael Varane's representatives as they continue to pursue their interest in him. United have already spoken to Real Madrid about Varane as they look to meet Solskjaer's demand for central defensive reinforcements #mujournal [@sistoney67]

Goalkeepers domino completed. Tomas Vaclík is expected to be announced soon as new Olympiacos player, free agent from Sevilla.


Vaclík will replace José Sá who’s gonna sign with Wolves. Rui Patricio will fly to Italy today as he’s joining Roma from Wolves. Both deals done.

There’s NO buy option included in William Saliba deal between Arsena and OM, confirmed. Saliba has accepted to join OM until June 2022 on loan - then #AFC want him to come back.


#OM Arsenal board always considered “impossible” to include any buy option clause for Saliba.
 
Manchester United are increasingly confident of reaching an agreement to sign Raphaël Varane. Varane is eager to join United. #MUFC [@jamesrobsonES]

Real Madrid are ready to listen to offers starting from €50m for Raphaël Varane, but they deem the €45m offer from Manchester United as ‘insufficient’, considering the ‘age and level of the player’. #MUFC [@mundodeportivo via @Sport_Witness]

Real Madrid are aware that Manchester United are the ‘most interested’ club in signing Raphaël Varane. United can ‘fulfil’ Varane’s expectations salary wise and he has always been attracted to the idea of playing in the Premier League. #MUFC [@mundodeportivo via @Sport_Witness]

Re: Haaland I understand Chelsea are preparing a “BIG offer” to check out and challenge Dortmund’s “he will stay here next season”. The understanding is that Dortmund won’t say no to 195 million euro
If Chelsea are stupid enough to offer that kind of money who would blame Dortmund for biting their hands off.

Lets see 2 most recent generational strikers in Messi and Ronaldo. At the age of Mbappe and Haaland they were already best players in the world. Mbappe is simply lesser version of Ronaldo. Worse at everything. Haaland is a clinical finisher. Only those two in modern football era might be worthy of anything close to 200m. Even at the age of 36 and 34, those two are still better than "next big superstars".

They might be "best of the best of their generation", but are they really that head and shoulders above the rest to justify that price? Or those wage demands?
