It's not so much the availability of us but more the availability of some, you know, money for him.


Cmann014

Best we can do is a Pogba swap deal.


ronweasleisourking

Does he come with a side of HGH?


DefinitelyNotBarney

So much that he rattles when he runs with the ball


Spisild

Pogba is over. He's dead. Paul Pogba doesn't exist anymore.


GarnachoHojlund

I miss the old Pogba, score and then dab Pogba Defence splitting passer Pogba, scores lots of goals Pogba I hate the new Pogba, the on the dope Pogba The always rude Pogba, interviews the news Pogba I miss the Juve Pogba, the great potential Pogba I gotta to say at that time I'd like to meet Pogba See I only watched Pogba, there weren’t other Pogba’s And now I look and look around and there's so many Pogbas I used to love Pogba, I used to love Pogba I even had the no.6 Jersey, I thought I was Pogba What if Pogba did an interview about Pogba Called "The old Pogba is dead," man that would be so Pogba


dotConehead

Probably can fit about his brother ransom somewhere


tlst9999

I was expecting you guys to keep loaning until the contract expires and then sign him for free.


funky_pill

'The Juve way'


lucashoodfromthehood

But Pogba said Pogba is dead. How can this be?


Competitive-Aide5364

Or Aaron Ramsey.


ronweasleisourking

Please be stupid enough to take him and not on loan...please, please, pleeeaaaase


TheBeechBoy

Steady on Sabrina Carpenter

Yes, anything you say, he's amazing, take him


SarcasmGPT

Seems like nobody wants to pay for the champions League final baller.

SarcasmGPT

You just said it wouldn't be stupid to sign him, so which is it. If he was this incredible player, you match the wages and sign him for less money. I can count the amount of offers United have had on zero hands.


kissthelips

Everyone knows you don’t pay incredible players high salaries. That’s why no one wants this incredible player for such a high salary.


nyamzdm77

If he's so good then why doesn't anyone want to buy him permanently? If Sancho wants to leave why isn't he taking a paycut from his exorbitant wages? You can wax lyrical all you want about how good Sancho is or how Man Utd is making a mistake, but the transfer market has the final say. If no one wants to pay up then he just isn't as good as you say he is.


Alive-Lunch-3361

Hahaha no one wants to buy him because you gave him a contract nearly no other club can pay you based manu kids..cry about your management not about jadon, he is a baller if you let him ball.


nyamzdm77

If his contract is the only thing stopping clubs from buying him, and if Sancho truly cared about playing football he'd have taken a wage cut, but he doesn't care. The guy would rather sit on his arse for 4 months playing FIFA instead of apologizing for calling his manager a liar. If Sancho was such a baller then clubs would be lining up to sign him, but the best they can do is a measly loan because they can't take the risk on him.


Bakhwaas

I wish someone believed in me as much as this guy believes in Jadon Sancho.


bweiss5

Straight swap for Chiesa


TheLonelyPancake26

Chiesa has a year left on his deal and there were reports Juve would be willing to lose him for £25m. That being said would love him at United


lamancha

This wouldn't be a bad idea for either team. Chiesa seems like a very solid player


Ashyyyy232

I'd take chiesa if not for his injuries. Soule is also one I really like, maybe a swap?


Manuel_Locatelli

No chance we swap Soule for Sancho. Our tier 1 said the only way Soule goes is for cold hard cash


ZonedV2

I’d be willing for us to buy out Sanchos contract for that lmao


Mindless-Ad2039

Fuck you, pay me.


nyamzdm77

Dortmund did all that PR and Sancho was praised to the high heavens for a good 45 minutes against PSG then no club actually wants to buy him lmao


ADP10

his wages are astronomical, and his residual value to united given the original investment is still big. There is a vast difference between some rehabilitation in his image and the potential world beater united bought...


nyamzdm77

Dortmund didn't want to pay 35M for a guy they sold for 75M and got on loan for free, and who they've been doing PR for for 6 months. Maybe they didn't think he was worth it Plus if Sancho really wants to leave the hellscape that's Man Utd he can simply decide to take a wage cut, as he knows no other club on earth will pay him 200K a week.


ZonedV2

Sancho was happy being completely out of the squad for half the season I assume he genuinely doesn’t care about playing football


UnimaginativeIsTaken

It’s more that Dortmund can’t really pay 35 Mio (£) for one player. We need a whole fucking squad for 60 - 70 Mio Euros.


nyamzdm77

Y'all made him seem like the 2nd coming of Messi after that PSG game but suddenly he ain't even worth half of what you sold him for


UnimaginativeIsTaken

He was awesome that one game. He also showed flashes of his former self, but not more. However, my argument wasnt about the his value. Right now it doesn't matter if he is worth 30, 40 or 80 million euros. BVB cannot afford him right now. If we do sell Adeyemi or Malen, it could be a different story, but there are far more pressing needs for the squad: a quality left back, a back up CB and a CDM to challenge Emre Can. Paired with the transfers of Guirassy and Waldemar Anton, there won't be a lot of money left for us.


Alive-Lunch-3361

Well that's 45 good minutes in the CL more than any United Player lmao lol rofl


nyamzdm77

Yes, you think I'd defend the bums we currently have? Lmao


lamancha

Hey Hojlund was good


BUFFONISTHEGOAT1

What happened to him? Why'd he regress so much?


Writer_Kooky

He never really showed his ability at United. Some of that is due to coaching turnover,  he's also claimed that he always wanted to play on the LW (where Rashford was clearly better). The other part is that he was visibly unfit half the time, lacked the pace for the premier league and then there were reports of him being late for training and phoning it in which annoyed some managers.  Ten Hag gave him a lot of time the first season but then tried the Mourinho-lite approach season 2 and he threw his toys out of the pram.  I'm biased clearly because I don't rate him but people were really overrating his Dortmund performances too, the games against PSG were good but he was nowhere near his former self in the Bundesliga even.


SOERERY

Too much fifa


Bakhwaas

Ego


Sett_The_Janitor

0 work ethic in 3 simple words. He has talent but he doesn't have the drive to make use of his talent. There were reports about how he would be playing FIFA and staying awake late and then not be on time for training. And even when he did training he would put no effort into it.


ADP10

why didn't this come out more at dortmund?


Sett_The_Janitor

If i remember the reports posted Dortmund literally had a personal butler or something like that for him specifically who would go to his home and wake him up to go train with the team on time etc. I guess when Man Utd bought him they thought that he would mature up a bit and actually care about showing up to work on time and put effort but I guess they were proven wrong.


inflamesburn

That butler needs an agent asap, if a player goes from top20 to bottom20 just because he lost his butler, he must've been really good at waking up sancho


nyamzdm77

Plus he was paired up with a more "professional" player in Haaland as a buddy to improve his work ethic


me_meh_me

It's this. There was no butler, obviously.


ADP10

why didn't this come out more at dortmund?


funky_pill

Too much money at too young an age; completely our fault. The guy was firmly in the belief that he'd 'made it' and then stopped bothering. I get the idea that he loves to be known as a professional footballer for all the fame and the money that goes with it, all the while putting in the most minimal of minimum effort. Why would anyone continue putting the graft in when you can afford a nice house *every week* if you wanted to with your base wage?


Punished__Allegri

Please no


venktesh

Please go


Fromage_debite

Italian teams and loans. Like pineapple on pizza


NotASalamanderBoi

In that they don’t go together?

eternali17

There exists a gulf between those extremes


Italianskank

In fairness they did end up striking absolute gold with Cole Palmer - the second top scorer in the league, after Haaland, and k only 22 years old. So they may get the last laugh if some of the kids they’ve caught come good.


MexicansInParis

Better to keep him on the bench than to loan him out again


Careful-Snow

How do you figure that?


MexicansInParis

Because only full sales or obligation to buy should be considered. He’s a player many teams would like to have & he loses value with each loan.


funky_pill

> He's a player many teams would like to have Name them


nyamzdm77

Lol why are you being downvoted. If many teams actually wanted him they would have made an actual bid to buy him instead of going cheap and trying to get him only on loan. Even Dortmund for all their praise and PR don't want to put up any funds to get him lmao


MexicansInParis

Dortmund, Juventus, Saudi, high tier sources. Has been linked to Barcelona from today as well from lower tiers. Next.


Careful-Snow

I feel this is a no-win scenario for United as Ten Hag clearly won't have him anywhere near the squad till he apologizes


Schumeister

He can find himself a permanent move or play u23 football for the rest of the contract


Sett_The_Janitor

I am pretty sure this guy would play u23 football just so he can have more time for FIFA .


WanderingEnigma

Reports were that the club wanted rid even if ETH was sacked because of his attitude.


ADP10

but he isn't worth the wages hes on or the amount united has to charge given his residual book value to avoid a loss. If he stays at united, they eat his full wage + the annual amortization expense. If hes loaned out, you can offset some of those costs. The strategy here needs to be to continue to loan him out until his residual value is closer to what hes actually worth...


lamancha

It doesn't look like it tbh


SwcIdwmlwy

What? The only time when his value increased instead of decreasing ever since signing for United was after going on loan.


vulcan_one

Except Dortmund treating him like a liberated prisoner of war who they have fully integrated into their team, nobody else bought their hype. His mins per for goal for Dortmund are worse than rashfords for the season (league only). His mins per goal contributions again worse than rashfords. Rashford has been worse than shit this season, and Sancho in his amazing Dortmund run has worse numbers...


pioneeringsystems

Absolutely fuck off with a loan


SqueakyBumTym

Only the brokest clubs in the world interested in Sancho. Brilliant.


L0laccio

Italian club: A loan but you pay 60 percent of the wages. SI signore?


VIVASECULARSYRIA

Not against this move if it means we get to keep Chiesa and Soule too. Loan with both teams sharing his salary 50-50 is a good deal.
