CONFIRMED Panagiotis Retsos

[Sam64]

Would love to know if there's an option to buy with this. If not, not really that excited, just a backup for Bash probably. But if there is...

Man Utd fans loving the signings we are making:

[Nesh Blade]

Don't see the benefit of doing the hard work in getting him fit and Increasing his value for someone else.

Suppose it just gives some good press for us as a club? Shows we're a trusted place for young players from bigger clubs, and that we play proper football

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I'm not really sure what "initial loan" means. I still think it sounds like we struggled to get Leverkusen to commit to anything permanent. Be interested to hear the answer to the question direct.

I guess an added bonus to Retsos signing is that George Baldock can improve on his Greek ready for the Greek national team!

Loan with the option to buy in the summer it has been mentioned. I think it may have been the other way around as he has been out with an injury for a year and we may not have wanted to sign him perminantly right now.

 

[DronnieBlade]

Option to purchase suggested. Around £8m.

[Weneverscorefromcorners]

Restos-sured it will be a view to making it permanent

 

[Booker4]

Great interview! I love that you can see the Shirecliffe and the former Timber Top, now a car cleaning place, in the background!

 

[bromtom]

Says we should call him Panos if that's not already been posted.

I get that Panagiotis isn't a common name in these parts, nor is Richairo, or Sander for that matter but does anyone else think we're overdoing it on the "bloody hell that's a gob full" videos asking how to pronounce it?

We'll be signing someone called Benjamin and asking if we can call them J because it has a J in it and it's easier for our low quality Sheffield elocution.

 

[Booker4]

Option to purchase suggested. Around £8m.

Where's that come from Dronnie?! I thought it might be from the Star but I've had my free five articles this week so that's that!

 

[1066blade]

I don't normally share what I hear but I'm actually well and truly ITK on this one and can say he's definitely not signing

Sorry, had to be done.

[nickwr37]

I think they should all be at the same time with a level playing field.

It's cos we leave the EU at

Option to buy for 9.5 mill euros

New thread to be started on off topic as what will GBP vs EUR do from Monday. Place your bets as to whether we may get a better price than quoted. I'll say yes but no. Burnt me pizza slightly as can't get off S2 4SU

 

[Wards]

Sounds from that it's more a case of seeing if he wants to join us permanent rather than other way around. Wilder sounds dead kean on him.

 

[Sam64]

OH YA BEAUTY

[bonnet de douche]

Any body know the actual price of the buy option ?

 

[JohnDenver]

Perfect English, intelligent and characterful. Exactly the same as Berge and errr that Ricky lad.

All part of the profile. If they can play we’re onto a fine thing.

 

[hull-Blade]

Any body know the actual price of the buy option ?

Someone said 8 m

 

[Maidenhead]

Weird that as we leave the EU we suddenly have all these European players arriving (and Norwegian)

 

[benn5712]

Can we call him Pan?

Pan. From Greek mythology.
Shits in the woods, spreads panic, 'loves' goats.

Perhaps not.

"...with a view to making it permanent"

Brilliant interview, explaining coherently our acquisition policy from year to year, slowly, slowly ticking the necessary boxes, and ending with a thinly veiled pop at the grunters (certain Championship teams struggling due to poor financial dealings), this was the most uplifting thing I have heard from a United manger in 60'years of supporting the Blades.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

He looks very young. I hope he can handle the PL. Future is bright , the future sure is red and white.
