🚨🌳 Nottingham Forest submitted second offer for Givairo Read as new right back from Feyenoord.
Understand the proposal is worth €20m package with player open for the move, personal terms not an issue.
Deal underway. #NFFC
🚨 Carlos Baleba's camp has contacted Manchester United again to explore the possibility of a move. The approach has come from the player's side.
Baleba was pushing hard to join United a year ago, viewing a move to Old Trafford as his dream.

If it comes down to Baleba or Koné, I'm picking Baleba every single time.
Koné is a great budget option for the squad, but Baleba's athleticism + ground coverage is excatly what we need next to Mainoo, Santos and Tielemans.
Also his ceiling is way higher than Kone + he is prem proven.
@AliceTalksFooty Been saying his name for weeks. But no, we want to sign PL proven but price should be under 40m. Why not sogn these players. We dont pay 40m for Sangare or Andres, let him come to a PL club, certify PL proven, value goes sky rocket abd then complain about the fee!
@xruiner89@AliceTalksFooty Exactly. Been saying his names fir weeks. They want PL proven but under 40m. Then why not sign these type of players? Why wait? Caicedo wasnt PL proven, nor Baleba.
If Manchester United walk away from Lewis Hall because of the price... they'll be making the same mistake they've made for years.
This isn't a panic buy.
It's succession planning.
Reports from TEAMtalk and Fabrizio Romano suggest Hall has emerged as United's priority left-back, with the player favouring Old Trafford.
Why does that matter?
Because this isn't just about replacing a left-back.
It's about protecting the future of the entire left side.
• Luke Shaw cannot realistically carry another 50-60 game season.
• Patrick Dorgu has been reinvented into a far more advanced role under Michael Carrick.
• That leaves United without a long-term, specialist left-back ready to take over.
Lewis Hall fits the profile.
Young.
Homegrown.
Premier League proven.
Comfortable stepping into midfield and progressing play.
Exactly the type of full-back modern elite teams are built around.
The reported £50m-£60m fee looks expensive...
Until you realise you're buying a player who could own that position for the next decade.
If INEOS genuinely believe Hall is the answer, this isn't the deal to hesitate over.
Would you pay the asking price for Lewis Hall, or would you trust Shaw and the current options for one more season? 👇🔴 #MUFC
@steven_dimond@Ishan3393@_NickNewell_ Who would be the Defensive cover? All are 8. We need a 6 to complement Mainoo/ Tielemans, who would tackle, has legs to cover.
