I believe it's a done deal simply because I haven't heard a stitch about it until now.

Can't wait to hear the inevitable excuses from the ITKs :pac:

???? its been discussed here a good few times for the past 2 or 3 days and we were linked with him last week in a few places.

more than likely our interest in him only became real when our Hummels, then Vermaelen interest ended, so it would tie into it being a very recent thing for us, which is unusual - normally takes months for us to sign somebody.

Tancredi Palmeri @tancredipalmeri · 8m

Manchester United have bid a figure between 45-48m€ for Vidal. Juventus have replied they want also 2 players, 1 of the two is Chicharito

Give him up and get Vidal. We have enough strength in attack.

kryogen · 12-08-2014 04:26PM

Cant say I know too much about him, but Liverpool and Chelsea were both linked with him I remember

WallyGUFC · 12-08-2014 04:26PM

Tancredi is some chancer. And people always believe him too

Alfred Borden · 12-08-2014 04:26PM

Tancredi palmeri is the worst "ITK" out there.
Rojo would be a top signing for you lads

Headshot · 12-08-2014 04:26PM

Get your filty hands off chico

Whatsisname · 12-08-2014 04:27PM

We've already given them Pogba and Evra, give us one back t'fúck

kryogen · 12-08-2014 04:27PM

If Juve theoretically said we want 45million and Chicha and Nani I would be ok with it. I would want some serious medical assessment done on Vidal though to be as sure as possible he is not going to be a long term casualty

yermandan · 12-08-2014 04:27PM

With all the talk about potential transfers, all I'm looking forward to right now is the unbelievable impact Herrera is going to have this year. I know pre-season can be somewhat of a mis-nomer but he was fcuking class. Cannot wait for Sat

I want to Vidal signed as much as anyone, but if they want Nani, Chicharito and 48 million, Ed should just fax back a picture of his schlong.

Presumably Palmeri is talking non-sense as per usual.

Adamcp898 · 12-08-2014 04:28PM

Would people be happy with a deal of ~£30 million plus Chico and say Nani (Or whoever they have in mind) for Vidal?

PS I know it's a BS tweet.

Backstreet Moyes · 12-08-2014 04:28PM

I love Nani and i love Hernandez but it doesn't look like either will be first choice and Juve seem to want both. If they help us sign Vidal i would be happy to do the deal but not get robbed.

€20 million plus those both should be more than enough.

He's gone. He's only going to get a place on the bench this season so why would he stay.

The only reason he was linked last week is because he conspicuously followed United and some players on his Instagram (or possibly some other social media thing) as far as I know, unless some journalist was claiming there was going to be a deal before that?

So if this goes through, of the 3 signings made, 2 have given up Champions League football to join United and depending on who you believe, the other chose United over a team with Champions League football...

errm, one left Southampton and the other turned down Southampton....lets not get carried away here just yet.

BBC and Guardian reporting on Rojo to United now too.

I'd have thought that the papers being filled with bullsh*t stories all summer that never come to fruition already proves this.

So would I but then again the doom mongers have been moaning about failed moves for Kroos, Fabregas, Hummels and potentially Vidal based on stories in the paper. Nobody knew if the players were targets or if bids were actually made ect. People still got their knickers in a twist.

beakerjoe · 12-08-2014 04:33PM

If Rojo signs (or anyone) by sunday, Im out of here for til the end of the window. I hope it goes through.

As long as Vidal's knee is 100% I wouldn't care about paying €45 million plus Chico and Nani

It may seem excessive but paying for a chunk of his wages by offloading two players who won't be starting or even second choice is not too bad, Nani and Chico going would free up about 170k a week

Vertigo100 · 12-08-2014 04:34PM

Things are heating up. I foresee a flurry of activity in the market over the next week.

Get it done woody, I have faith.

Adamcp898 · 12-08-2014 04:35PM

Ahhhhhh, it's always so relaxing when the BBC report something, no more debate over being in or not for someone.

Amirani · 12-08-2014 04:35PM

I really think Candreva would be wasted in a 3-5-2, he's not the most defensively minded and is at his most effective when playing fairly high up the pitch.

Rojo would make a good deal of sense though. I haven't seen him outside of the World Cup, but he's a good prospect and his versatility would fill a couple of gaps.

Would have to think it's as good as done then. Has anyone ever handed in a transfer request and then not moved?

Chico and Nani would have a combined value of 25 million making Vidal 70+ million which is ridiculous. 50 million in cash/players should be more than enough to get Vidal.
