Simon Jordan said it not possible unless the player changes T&C of his contract. More likely it’s one of those deals where all parties are happy and the details of the deal are kept between the parties. He also said next summer Lukaku’s book value is £25m. Why 25m? 100m and a five year contract. Book value should be 40m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cucurella loan makes sense. If he has a decent season, someone might want to buy him. His value can't be any lower than it is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lump Of Celery Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 I get that members might be happy to see the back of Cucurella. But let's not kid ourselves, signing a player for £63m (despite originally being available for £50m) and loaning them to a direct rival a year later for peanuts, is an embarrassment. I hope United will be covering his coach fare as we cant afford it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would only be able to shift him at a loss this window so a loan fee plus wages taken care of and reassessing him next summer is the best we can do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the loan secures Maatsen here for this season and beyond, and if Cucurella has a remotely decent season, someone might buy him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry PW66, that is a real loaded question if you look at recruitment over the past 3 windows. At least when the window closes the club lives will Or dies by the recruitment campaign over the past two windows. hopefully you agree there are no excuses once the transfer window closes.
