Gladly take Kroos for DDG

I'd keep DDG over any of them.. but if he wants out, i'll take Bale please

Madrid won't give away Kroos or Varane. Benzema(if they get Mbappe), Casemiro or Modric (due to his age) might be sacrificed.

Don Balon the Spanish version of the Sun

I'd only swap De Gea for Bale. I'd happily have Varane, Kroos, Casemiro, Modric and Ramos but all would be far cheaper than what Dave is currently worth.

Really?

DDG is a Gk and I doubt he'd get more than £50/60 mil

Kroos for example would be going for at least £70-80 mil

DDG is arguably the best in the world in his position. We'd have to think carefully about any deal. Let's not forget the trouble we have had replacing keepers in the past.

The only player where the pros outweigh the cons is Bale. He's a ready made PL star.

Why would de Gea go cheap? He's still one of the best players in the world and arguably the best keeper in the world. We have no desire or need to sell so why would we sell so cheap to a club we know desperately want him and have money?

i agree with you but personally i don't want bale. my reason being he was injury prone at spurs and now hes getting injured again. For DDG i want a world class player not someone who will keep getting injured

DDG is a great keeper but imo a 7/10 keeper behind a 9/10 defence is a better situation than a 9/10 keeper behind a 7/10 defence

If we build a top defence we can IMO sell DDG and still come out as winners

----------------------------------------------------------------------I I I don't think £60 mil for a keeper is cheap

Is Kross really considered in that top bracket? He's a very good player, but not world class, imho. I'd baulk if we paid more than £50m for him, even in today's market.

But to get a 9/10 defence we most likely have to bring in at least 3 new defenders.

De Gea is our best player and ideally I would rather keep him than swap him for any Real player.

"I I don't think £60 mil for a keeper is cheap"

It is in today's market with the money being pumped in. He's one of the best players in the world and his price should relate to that.

Why are people actually thinking about a reply to this.

OP's title

Mourinho open to De Gea swap

This is the complete reverse of what Nod Nolab said this morning " Jose will not consider DDG leaving United"

Swap deals don't happen anymore

Why would we need to keep De Gea when we have a ready made replacement in goals? His distribution is on a par with De Gea’s, short passing on a par, control on a par possibly, almost as skilful and definitely wider so covers more of the goal. And to think some people want him sold to China or Everton?!!

Only player I would straight swap DDG for is Marcelo.

It was woeful

While I'd hate to lose De Gea he hasn't been quite as important this season.

Casemiro would be an excellent signing for us but I reckon he's too important to them for them to sell.

Bring in Oblak or Handanovic and take Casemiro I'd be very happy with that, absolute class player.

I don't really know anything about Casemiro, just thought he was the 'worker' along side the better players, like Fletcher was for us

Bare and Modric or nothing

Bare would leave us too exposed and risk getting done in behind
