🚨 Lewis Hall is well liked by Manchester United, but a deal looks HIGHLY complicated. Sources say Newcastle are now privately insisting the player will NOT leave. #MUFC [@lauriewhitwell]
per @lauriewhitwell dealsheet
- uncertain another midfielder arrives, #mufc considering where to next put their resources.
- Lewis Hall: well liked, deal looks highly complicated. Sources say Newcastle now privately insisting hr will not leave.
- #mufc still weighing up ST market (Ollie Watkins not expected to happen).
- Everton eyeing Ethan Wheatley.
- Interest in Zirkzee, Vitek & Bayindir.
- Amass & Collyer could leave.
Summarising the new deal sheet on @TheAthleticFC:
- United not going for Ollie Watkins
- United did not pursue Welbeck move
- Not certain 3rd midfielder arrives (Mount's pre-season form a factor)
- Lewis Hall well liked but deal highly complicated
🚨🗣️ @ianirving_: "So, potentially Mason Mount's performances and and the thought of Carrick to use him deeper means there may not be a mystical third midfield signing possibly?"
🗣️ @lauriewhitwell: Yeah. I mean, so again, I'm hesitant to sort of commit massively because the I think plans have changed as we've gone on, but I think that Carrick really likes Mason Mount and so does that then, you know, if you have these 2 midfielders at the base of your midfield. So you've got Santos, you got Mason Mount, you got Tielemans, you got Mainoo, that's 4 for 2 positions potentially, you know, if you count Bruno as as a number 10 that's going to pretty much hold on to that. But then you've perhaps got others that could step in: Tielemans could be a number 10 for example and rotate or you know could be you know obviously we saw Shea Lacey there.
So perhaps they're looking at thinking we've got a certain amount of money to spend where do we absolutely need it to be? And yeah, I think that I don't know how at what point it's it sort of felt that maybe Mount could be that guy."

🚨 Takeaways from TOTD:
-Still debating on CM + NO GUARANTEE
-LB an area of PROMINENCE
-Hall LIKED w/Laurie getting impression price towards £60m (NOT SET)
-MUFC felt Amass not at level LONG-TERM over year
-MUFC not pursuing Watkins
-Andy says money is TIGHT + regular UCL helps
#mufc wouldn't be interested in Lewis Hall if he didn't want to join. United are looking to recruit him, but Newcastle will demand a high fee [@AndyMitten]
