Mario Gotze?
Hardly a 22 year old gem.

Always appreciate your input.Just now sharing my own views. I rate Lgit very highly, but not at 60m. 50m yes. I think Foyth’s value would of been similar had he been at Ajax. I think he is going to be a very special talent.
Our ceiling per player should be 50m, and think with all the names I am hearing we are interested in, that is possible. A risky gem at the age off 22 is not the risks we took before, as this particular one out of two players has proven on a bigger stage (hint).
We have to be smart, and take calculated risks on the right profile players. If Fulham are not promoted, I believe our first signing is possibly to be Sess. What I don’t want us to do is ‘F’ off Poch, going into August, with a few days (less than I think from memory 9 days). From what I know, the manager does not want to be bedding in say 3-4 players in August. My opinion is 2 at best, he doesn’t mind.
The above is my educated opinion, and why we have to watch how this pans out.
He's talking about Martial. 22 and proven on a bigger stage i.e. PL

Thanks for the clarification Hercules. I hope Julian Weigl is the 22 year old proved on a bigger stage, Germany and a CM and has been linked to PSG for £50million. Looks like it will be a an exciting summer, World Cup and a big transfer window!Just now sharing my own views. I rate Lgit very highly, but not at 60m. 50m yes.

Probably because that pisses off those clubs a lot and they have ungodly amounts of money to return the favor in kind and unsettle some of our squad who might fancy a move there.Given the reported fees we’re willing to pay I’m surprised we’re not targeting Spanish and Portuguese based players as their once extortionate buy out clauses are now circa the going rate... meaning we can potentially get decent players without paying the going rate + what ever clubs decide to add on.
I think the docs were leaked and were pretty complex, starting around £30m but had/have loads of £10m add ons for apps/goals/cl stuff.
What will affect him (Martial, as still ITK linked also) moving (potentially to us) and the fee is the fee itself - I think Monaco get more money based on how much he's sold for. He probably stands Utd at £60-70m but it could go up to £100m if he gets sold. It's probably out there on Google, and one of the things that would likely make any deal a PITA, unless we do a Vorm-style px
If Martial does not materialise, there is an under the radar player abroad at same age for under 20m, by some stretch. And this one would be a very good signing.

@Hans Gruber, why the doe rating out of intrest?
£70M is absolutely insane for an unproven teenager.
Sad times.
Thanks Herc for the ITK...I'm very excited about our German prospects. There's quality in those leagues, at reasonable prices.
You do know Levy is our chairman right?
Wanyama 15m? - At least £35
Even the poor players like Sissoko. Llorente and NKoudou we will get altogether £45m + in todays market.
We should leave De Ligt well alone at that price. I want us to show ambition but you have to be sensible as well. You wouldn’t see the likes of Juve, Bayern or Athletico spending anywhere near £70 mill on a teenage centre back from a shit league.
There has to be better value out there.
