Fred(Signed for United)

[Ric]

Thought he looked great against us at The Etihad, and cover at DM should be a priority. If anything happens to Fernandinho we’ve got a major problem.

Doesn' look like happening now considering he' signed an extension two days back

I agree, and it seems a bit weird after what seemed like a come and get me plea a couple of days earlier

Be a strange decision if so, he had a contract until 2021 anyway.

Unless it was a way of inserting a buy out,so shaktar get more, dont know if he had a small buy out before though.

 

[JimmyGrimble10]

That stinks of getting a bigger fee with the promise we will allow you to in the summer. Defo not coming this month all factors considered.

 

[Andouble]

he really signed a contract extension two days ago after saying he wanted to play for Pep last week?

 

[blue by birth]

I recon we'd struggle to afford Sanchez, & FORTUNATELY JFE would be a non starter.

Edited for you

His earlier contract ran upto 2021 so signing a contract is a bit weird. Guessing he got better terms in the new one.

Fred in a double pivot with gundogan would be great when mendy is fit to attack the wings.

 

[decmancity]

Yeah I think the contract situation was just to get the release fee in there, they may have threatened sticking him on the bench (Potentially misses out on WC) if he didnt sign it. After he has signed it we have got the rumours of us making a bid and a supposed release clause so it all makes sense.
