Maybe - but Aurier has been offered all over Europe this summer - I doubt anyone has to go there to close this deal, and any deal will always hinge on his court appearance.
Closing the deal may not be the issue. It could be that the deal is agreed in large part, but Levy is protecting himself in case Aurier's appeal is not resolved in time. For example, I could see Levy going there basically to sew everything up pending a favorable and timely appeal result. That way the club could pursue secondary targets now in case Aurier is no longer an option (deadline day deals).

I think Mourinho would shit himself if we got Martial but the 'multiple other deals' part of the ITK could be something to do with Utd. offering Ibrahimovich another contract and the 'loss' part would most likely be Rose or Dier (naturally).

I've heard that, but I can't find a source on it. Who has reported that the hearing was on the 7th?

I read it on French newspaper site. I didn't post the link because it was in French. It took some finding. If I have time tomorrow I'll dig it up and post it on the player thread.

Where has that been confirmed? I missed it...

Nowhere, but he's a player that's very close of getting his first cap for Argentina, and he chose us because of game time. So I'd say there's absolutely zero chance he's going to the development squad

All based off of a comment from JJ I believe. I'm sure he'll train with the first team but don't think he's going to be an immediate impact outside of cup games.

There's no coming back for Rose with Poch now though, Pinx. You don't cross him like that and get away with it. He's toast one way or another - now, jan, next summer. Certain to be one of them.
He knew that too; that interview was a tactical necessity to bring about a move
