If there was any truth to De Ligt only wants Bayern, much like Raphinha, we would've pulled our bid. This will be the summer window that showed Barca and Bayern's true disguising colors.

Not sure if this is credible.

Think it will be closer to £80-90m to land De Ligt.

Unless De Ligt is the utmost priority, rather we go with Koulibaly + Kounde who will cost the same amount as De Ligt alone.

So after a meeting with Boehly they can all of a sudden match the offer?

Read the comments. That Kerry Hau is a total bullshitter.

Romano is tier one in Italy and reported nothing of such.

We’ll see. Mind you, it’s only opposition based media reporting Raphinha/De Ligt prefer moves to only Barcelona/Bayern. Ben Jacob’s quickly disproved that. Simon Jones is a United fan for the daily mail and he broke the news De Jong wants only United. You really think De Jong wants Europa league and no guarantee progression given the circus United are?

German media can print what ever they want. Truth or lies. They can’t and won’t out bid us.

The Tragedy of FC Barcelona.

Yeah Sterling is AWB esq. Good defensively but you'd be wishing we had Victor Moses back with the way Sterling goes forward.

2022 is without a doubt the Barcelona Transfer Window.

Hearing 3m for Azpi.

Think it also proves that anything Romero publishes is horseshit. He was the one that said Raphinha would rather stay at Leeds.

Sterling £45m Raphinha £55m De Jong £56.2m Kimpembe £51m De Ligt £76m Fantastic window tbh.

Juve don't do swap deals anymore, hence why Jorginho is being talked up as a separate deal. Still skeptical about the link on De Jong given it is coming from Romero. Most likely he is trying to get United to act on De Jong as I am willing to wager Barca's hopes on getting both Lewa and Raphinha lie on selling De Jong.

Romero is the one reporting it though, and he is Barca's correspondent. More than likely he is fabricating this rumor in order to get United to pay up for De Jong. This would then allow them to fund the Raphinha/Lewa move.

Looking less likely now but let’s wait and see what happens in the next couple days.

It was a terrible move to begin with, as Italian football isn't really made for the modern CB in today's game. Add the fact his first season was under Sarri and then Pirlo, its no surprise he didn't do well to begin with. Under Allegri, he did win Juve's player of the season last year. He has all the qualities to be an elite CB and if Tuchel can make Christensen look solid, I look forward to his work with De Ligt. Bremer is a classic last ditch tackler CB. Poor on the ball and plays in a counter attacking low block. These CB's won't get you far as we have seen with Zouma.

Have you seen Bremer on the ball? No thanks.

Not much options left. Koulibaly wants to stay in Italy. PSG are probably offering Skriniar something lucrative and under the table (albeit similar to Hakimi). Rather pay over the odds for De Ligt than Kounde.
