Isn't Carson taking one of the 17 'foreign' spots on the CL A list?

Nope.

Strong rumours that Fern is being offered a coaching role

Yeah I've heard that mate, but wouldn't surprise me if a one year extension was offered as well.

I don't know, but I wouldn't doubt a club would try. He's a generational talent. Most would agree and so I wouldn't put it out of the realms of possibility that clubs would try to move mountains to get him. Even if that means a fire sale of their players.

Whose buying all these
Players in this fire sale worth the climate we are in!?

Hi, abit more info from the Dortmund side of things i trust him as he knew Haaland was signing for them when all the press were saying he was united bound.

"Hi mate little update ill try and update you as much as i can, Dortmund are really interessted in Gabriel Jesus, if they dont sell haaland to you they may come in with an offer for Jesus, Marco Rose has asked the board if they can get Jesus if Haaland leaves as he really likes the player. I forgot to say after the champions league game.
Man United came in asking about Haaland and Sancho, Dortmunds response was its either one or the other wont sell both to them.

"I think City have an advantage as Dortmund may ask for money, the sell on clause gone on the sancho deal and Gabriel Jesus in a deal, dont know if City would do it thats up to them so basically it would mean dortmund get all the money from the sancho deal to united and a replacement for Haaland as well thats all for now ill message you if i have any other updates going to watch the Dortmund vs Schalke game now should hammer these"

Why would Gabriel want to move to Dortmund? I like the club and how they operate, but a Brazilian who has been bagging trophies for fun is not taking that step down. I could see him playing for one of the better Spanish or Italian clubs, maybe Bayern at a push if they wanted him. But no, he is not going to Dortmund. Very wishful thinking in my opinion.

Well then, 'free' spots. Free he is, isn't he?

Maybe misunderstanding your point but releasing Carson will not free up a spot for Messi or Haaland.

still think this is a unique opportunity. Even if he only stayed 3 years, it's also potentially 3 years with our version in Delap as his understudy learning from the player we hope he would become for the next decade for us.

For domestic rules you're right.

For UEFA rules though you're not:
on UEFA A list we have 5 HG non-club trained players and 16 players on free spots:

Without Carson we had 17 free spots. 1 free spot for Haaland. Or Messi.
