Everton Agree Fee With Man Utd For Lukaku

[garyw]

Paul Joyce saying 75 million plus addons. I'm happy with that, because while we are losing the best striker we've had in years, Lukaku blows hot and cold and he obviously wants to leave and I can't be arsed for any more snarky comments from him in the press.

I'd also like to mention that the club has never said he is only going for £100 million, so where on earth have people got this from? I'm confident this money will be used to strengthen the squad because I believe the money we have already spent isn't this money in advance due to not buying a replacement for Lukaku.

I've just said !!!

pretty sure he's in LA or at least he was yesterday. although I saw somewhere on here that he wasn't due back in training until this upcoming Monday anyway

Heard he was supposed to be back in training today mate, probably just to fuel the rumours though that he's staying out in America for the medical.

I just can't get past the 'red' mate.

Clothes, including red clothes, can be removed.

Based on the flood of articles yesterday about Rooney as a makeweight in a Lukaku deal, which at the time I thought was strange make sense now. As does the Everton denial. The price for Chelsea isn't 75 million, because the 75 for united includes Rooney.

My opinion.

he was actually in LA for the 4th of July with Pogba and NBA player Serge Ibaka... no idea if he's left or not.

edit: Ibaka flew back to Toronto 17 hours ago for what its worth

Probably better to leave them on and soil them to death!

Dunno, great if true....bidding war!!

£150m

I'm confused, we think he's got the worst touch ever, goes missing, has a bad attitude. But we think he should be the highest transfer ever? Surely £75m(ish) plus addons is about right?

Just hope he ends up going to Chelsea instead. But it seems strange he's in LA and United are flying there too.

 

[peteblue]

My memory is bad, we have this fee of 100m in our heads, where did we get that from?

100million you say....I'll just post that on twitter and call you 'an informed source'........

Was just about to put something similar:

Now I hate Man utd, but I also hate Chelsea, but which ones worst? There's only one way to find out...

FIGHT!!!!

Cos lets be honest, hes NOT worth 100m.

In this market hes probably worth a little more than 75m.

But 75m plus add ons is a price I can cope with.

Tbh I don't think anyone is worth 100m, except perhaps Messi!

But given United paid 89m plus bonuses for Pogba and up to 58m for Martial, both unproven in the league, I'd put Rom's value as much closer to Pogba's figure than the mid 70s. Especially given the fact they are a rival which surely adds on at least one or two places worth of premier league prize money.

He's worth more than Pogba......

Bidding war

EVERTON leaked Manchester United's interest in Romelu Lukaku and did so to make Chelsea act fast, according to European football expert Gabriele Marcotti.

"My reading of this is that you've got United talking to
Everton
over Rooney, we know that, why not accelerate this by pushing Lukaku along as well?

"If I had to guess I would say this story originates with Everton and I think it's a way of trying to keep the gears in motion.

"Trying to get Chelsea to come up with a serious bid, trying to test United's resolve if they really want Lukaku or whether they're still operating on Morata."

I love our new owner, what a genius, now let's wait few hours and Chelsea will make a better offer and we will leak it to the media hoping for a bidding war

I wonder how many potential international fans we lost because of his comments on international duty
