To break it down for people, the Glazers bought Man United with a loan which they now put on the shoulders of the club to pay back.
In essence they used Man Utd money to buy Man Utd.
To add to that the club regularly pays them money for “consultancy services”.

Yeah, don't mind me, tried to break it down, but 'language of finance' kee me there.

Thanks.

An interesting point brought up by a fan on MEN (MU2OT), something I never considered!


United can’t spend big until 1st July due to FFP.

FFP look at spend in the financial year starting 1st July.

United have spent £660m in the last 5 years but have sold few players so net spend is £440M. In contrast Real Madrid have a net spend of £26m in the same period....that’s why they can spend big now...they sold Ronaldo last year for £100m so they want to buy in this accounting period not the next one.

When you buy a player it is accounted over the contract so a £100m player will cost £20m a year over a 5 year contract. If you sell the money is accounted in one lump sum so in this case £100m would show up in the accounts not £20m.

United need to sell players in order to buy.

Whilst negotiations can start before July 1st I would be surprised if money is exchanged before 1st July.....we have bought James but that was only £15m.

Watch the transfer market accelerate after 1st July

I really like Ndidi but I can't help notice he isnt enterprising enough when on the ball. Without the ball he's positionally excellent. Great at interception and covering space. Good tackler too but even Matic does more with the ball. I feel we need someone with a good balance of both.

We need someone to shield the defense. The CM and AM can handle the offensive aspect without worrying too much about defensive burden.

MRTA7:
It would also be very hard to refuse if Inter is offering iCardi+ cash for Lukaku. Even though icardi has his own problems and I don't want Lukaku to leave.

patrickmuf:
I want this deal to happen regardless of Icardi's off field issues. Maybe he'll put his head down when he comes here and realizes how big a club is United.
