The idea of loaning Abraham to Arsenal seems mad to me given how many Chelsea players go to Arsenal and get worse. If we have to send him anywhere, as said, at least West Ham have European football.

Varane to Man Utd is looking more likely by the day.

Want to get this one wrapped up so we can start sorting through the players who are leaving and then another signing or two.

I still think he's going to be a disappointment at United, and is a massively overrated CB

£40mil plus nearly 400k a week woi what an investment. Could get 2 Ben Whites for that investment.

The same Ben White that is costing 50m?

[FLiam]

Might be slightly biased, but I reckon Ben White will be better value for money. 

[Baddar]

We signed Bailly, an unknown from Villarreal for £30m.

Now we're getting Varane, a serial winner (overrated or not) for £34m. I don't see how it's a bad deal.

[The Lusophone]

Also I highly doubt Varane is gonna be on 400k a week - his wage at Real was 170k a week and reports (from relatively dubious sources) were that United were prepared to double his wage, which very isn't 400k a week.

Also also, I don't think Man Utd are concerned with what Arsenal are doing this summer 🤷‍♂️

Yes. Ben White hasn't got a 124mil contract

[Rich]

Varane is being bought to win trophies. Ben White is not. Madrid are a club that need to sell. Brighton are not. Varane is a world cup and champions league winner. Ben White is not.

You are not comparing apples and apples.

We've all played too much FM haven't we?

And your source that Varane has is...?

Edit: Actually let's just do the math on this one - Varane is said to have signed a four deal with an option for a 5th, so that's either 31 million a year, or 24.8 million a year.

So according to you, Varane is signing a contract with Man United where he will either be paid just under 480,000 a week at the lower end... or just under 600,000 a week at the top end, assuming that supposed figure is all salary.

Do you really think United are going to be giving out that kind of salary?
