Heads of terms?
Full agreement of terms (lol*) before lawyers get involved.

Otherwise known as when the deal is done to all agents everywhere. Despite that NOT BEING THE FUCKING CASE LADS.

(Probably a bit simpler for these sorts of contracts though).

*The reason for the “lol” being the number of times we report to clients on supposedly agreed positions set out in docs (and their consequences) only for them to go “oh no, we didn’t mean or want that, reject that”.

Why meltdown? Before it was no negotiations had begun. Now it's negotiations have begun? It's progress and not called negotiating if you just pay the asking price straight away.

The twitter meltdown has begun
Really?

- Player clearly wants to come
- Genoa clearly willing to enter into negotiations
- Opening bid of €23m vs. ask of €30m

Hardly seems like one that we can't get over the line.

Will we get him for Burnley? No. Not the end of the world.
For Utd? Probably not.

But if the manager wants him, for that money, and that age profile, seems like we'll make it. Hardly warrants a meltdown. But then Twitter is Twitter...

Makes me laugh tbh. Just look at the state of this.

I think we've all been around long enough to know there'll be a bit of a song and dance around this one before it's done. Genoa need to sell but also want to save face. It's not ideal selling a key player in January but I assume they need the money. Same as the agent comments last night. This way it looks like Genoa got the best deal they could.

Romano seems clued in and confident it'll happen, I'm chilled for now.

Think it'll get done today/tomorrow personally, but there are no certainties until it's signed off by all parties.

As long as he's in by the beginning of next week then I'm happy.

Be nice for him to get a few days training under his belt before Utd on the Sunday.

Issue is now we have play by play on every deal. It seems like it’s dragging and it has only been a few days. Mainly because people are posting supposed updates every few hours.

I think this one gets done soon.

I honestly can't believe that people are having meltdowns already. I mean, I can, cos it's people and people are largely stupid but still.

We are truly are in a world of instant gratification and if things don't happen immediately, there is simply not patience whatsoever.

I'm an impatient man in general but it's 3rd Jan and we look to have a deal almost over the line for a priority target. Last Jan we took the entire month to get Porro done. The difference is night and day.

Not according to twitter/x and some spurs fans! It’s apparently levy being tight over 7m

oddly enough seeing less yellow and purple dots

Yeh, I don't know if some on here would have been able to cope with how it used to be.

A few weeks later they would arrive.

Who cares what morons say on X? It's the same with every club and every link to a player they want. Just pay the money and get him now etc etc. Great advice, I'm sure Daniel Levy will take it under advisement.
