The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 10th June

£70m is mental.

If that is for Toby - can't turn it down.

We can find another wide forward besides Martial.

 

[mw828]

We have to accept a big that high imo. He is in his prime and will decline within his next contract. We can buy De Ligt with that and still pocket a few million.

 

[rossdapep]

hertyid on coys re Toby

Just received a text ”80m euro bid”
So have to assume Martial not coming then, all cash deal.
I assume Levy will accept.

Hmmm. 70m is a hefty amount of money but it is disappointing that we are not demanding Martial in return. Just hope our alternatives are up to his level and attainable. Secondly, we really need to get De Ligt now.

 

[tiger666]

What did we pay in 2015? 12m or something? Mad.

Initially, exactly what I thought, but now I'm thinking if they're that desperate for Toby we should hold out for a straight swap.

 

[sam1972]

Why would Utd offer in euros?

 

[murichej]

Bite his hand, who ever is offering 70mio for Toby.

We also know that he cane asily turn him into a mug.

 

[kcfiifotk]

80m Euros? Not pounds? Would 2 English clubs deal in Euros? We sure this is from Utd not PSG or Bayern?

 

[cabinfever]

If it’s a € bid, surely it’s not United? That would be a £ bid, no?

If it is a bid in euros, we have to assume it came from abroad, not from United. Can’t demand Martial in return, then

 

[ShelfSideSpurs]

Snap their hand off for that amount of money. Makes the Walker fee look cheap.

 

[Col_M]

Sorry, being a bit thick but does that mean 80m euros for Toby?

That’s the implication, yes.

That's true but why add "assume no Martial in return, all cash"

 

[cider spurs]

Well...that's a serious amount of wedge.

Martial not coming the opposite way kinda feels like we've been bullied again...however, let's not forget Alderweireld could leave for a measly £25 million next summer.

£70 million and use to get de Ligt...I can handle that if that's how it's got to be.

Or its a text from an individual from any country in europe bar UK, ie belgian dad/agent

I think that hertyid suggested United in the post....

 

[JohnnyVivas]

I won't buy that we're better without Toby, but if we have an 80mioEUR bid from abroad, that is absolutely the best possible result. Hit the bid, keep him out the PL and reinvest accordingly.

Seems De Ligt deal stalling from recent ITK but this would be enough powder to get us back at the table, if it's a question of fee...

 

[bod33]

considering he can go for £25 mill next season 80 mill euro is a no brainer , u have to accept.

 

[McArchibald]

Selling to a direct rival is always a bad idea, no matter what the price.

Tough one. I'd generally agree but you can do a lot with 80 million euros for a 29 year old player.
