Yes it’s nusa . it’s us and another premier league big boy but they can’t do the deal this month we canworks being put into it
I do think we are extremely lucky in that a lot of the other big clubs round Europe are ether broke or stacked in LW. Certainly feels like serendipitous timing on this one if we can get it done.Would be an unbelievable coup by the club, a much bigger profile than when we got Udogie and Sarr and they were both highly rated and wanted.
The perfect profile for us and Ange would turn him in to a top class player imo.
Really hope we can get this done
Utd pay ridiculously inflated wages though. Sounds like we are going for him hard right now because in the summer there will be a lot more clubs after him who will then be able to pay the money. So this is our best shot at getting him.
Yeah and it's why they are scrambling around to appease FFP quota's like many other clubs right now. If these clubs don't change this they'll be struggling season upon season despite their massive revenue streams.
should ease this summer quite a bit as I think Martial and Varanes contracts are up
Indeed but it's not always that simple because whoever you are bringing in will be looking at what other people in the club are earning before they commit to signing a contract. They'll have to move away from the big name galactico type players for a couple of years imo, because they'll all want Rashford money. It'll be a slow process reducing the wage bill if they still expect to compete for the top players. This why we have a huge advantage right now. A club on the up that can pay parity with players already here. If you are Nusa there is only one club you are choosing out of ourselves and Utd right now imo.
Worth keeping in mind that Nusa already turned down a supposedly very big offer from Chelsea last summer as he didn't think it was the right move for his career. Wise kid. But i think your right that there will be a lot more competition come summer. I do think more appealing teams then Utd would come in for him and thus his value will also rise.
Like most European clubs they are not really in a position to turn down a good fee. After all they would have sold him last summer if Nusa had said yes. They know he wont be there next season. The key factor is they don't want him leaving now as they qualified for the next round of the Conference League and they also aren't having the best season, currently 5th in the league, 14 points off first, and they really want to get some sort of European place. Weather or not 22 mil will be enough I don't know tho. One also have to keep in mind that these things are never guaranteed, what if Nusa gets injured or his form dips significantly then his price will go down a lot. I mean look at Orban, he just moved for €13 mil and only last summer he was valued at €30 mil.
Sorry for my ignorance, and sorry AC as there's no Nusa thread yet, but i haven't seen Nusa play but his out put is pretty horrendous. I get he's a kid, but you'd think playing in a very weak league he would at least bang some goals in...
It is true every transfer is a risk, especially an 18 year old because sometimes things happen and they just don't turn out the way we hoped. Having said that, Nusa looks the real deal and already has played 38 games in the Belgium Pro League and also has 4 full caps for Norway, he is as close to a sure thing as you can get. Really hope we can get him because it would be a bit of a coup. I'd guess we are trying for Nusa and Rowe with Nusa possibly the number 1 target with Rowe as our backup if we can't get the deal over the line. I'd be happy with either.
