Ryan Fraser?

Today is the "deadline" day, it's not gone yet.

And no, we definitely need a winger with end product.

Does the transfer window window end today ?

Really don't see this transfer happening. Chiesa is the one we have been linked with as well. It's a shame as he would be a great signing for us I think.

What makes the OP so certain Dortmund set any deadline day other than the end of the transfer window ?

It was reported as the 10th, that's today. Apparently there's going to be an announcement. Matth will keep you posted.

No mate. It's been and gone. Dortmund reportedly wanted any deal done by today.

Maybe a deal has been reached. Or maybe not. We'll see.

Dortmund are always setting deadlines and after they pass, they set new deadlines.

Right now, both are negotiating a price and structure of the deal. News reports that they're offering a new deal to Sancho is one tactic. What United have done regarding the news reports a few days ago about the price post Covid-19, etc. Are part of that.

Sancho, from reports, has said he wants to leave. Any offer from Dortmund wouldn't even be looked at until everything is done and dusted and there is no move. If Sancho really wants to leave, he doesn't sign a contract at all of he ends up staying this season. Dortmund will then have to sell or lose him as they did some other top stars in the past.

The pressure is off now Greenwood has hit the first team. Yea, we need (far) better squad options for attack, but a marque signing is not such a worry now.

Considering the economy and likelihood of another season without matchday revenue. Spending €120m is probably not the wisest idea... But let's see, maybe Dortmund will fold and we will get a deal, or maybe they are 100% serious and we miss out.

We need to get him, I wouldn't worry about him being on Borussia Dortmund's training camp, Same thing happened with Harry Maguire and Leicester.

posted on 10/8/20

Tbh I think it's positive that we Sancho can train with BVB, meanwhile we're in Germany for EL.

Wouldn't be bothered if we didn't land Sancho before end of the month.

Ousmane Dembele to Barca:

25 Aug 2017: Borussia Dortmund's director general Hans-Joachim Watzke and sporting director Michael Zorc have made it clear they want the deal closed before August 27.

“We have set Barcelona a deadline, and either something will happen or it won't.”

The difference there though is that Barca paid WAAAAYYY over the odds.
