Just wondering Eds if Lacazette is likely to leave Lyon this summer and if so are we likely to bid for him? Really think he'd be perfect for us. Turan strongly linked can you update on these rumours?

{Ed001's Note - last I heard Lacazette was staying put this summer. Turan is actively looking to move, but United have not shown any interest after his comments regarding wanting a move as he is fed up of running so much with Atletico. That made a lot of teams step back and rethink their interest. His reps will have to do a lot of bridge building to get him a move now, but I can't see it being a team that considers itself to be top echelon now. It is more likely to be a team wanting to break into the Champions League willing to take a chance, I would expect. Shame as he is a quality player, but quality is no use if you aren't going to make any real effort with it.}

I read those comments ed, terrible! What made all simeones players attractive is hard hard they worked off the ball! I'd still buy him as a squad player considering the amount of games we may be playing next year. I'd rather have him than gaitan anyway. Is that move looking likely ed?

{Ed001's Note - I don't know anything regarding a move for Gaitan, seems to be rumoured every window but never with any real substance.}

Turan is a top player but if he made those comments then shame on him.

I'm pretty sure Ed002 has mentioned in other threads that Gaitan is close to agreeing a deal with Man Utd. The only thing that can stop it now is if Benfica block the move. So it looks like Gaitan is on his way after about 3 years of rumours.

Lacazette could be sold, but, for the right price! Apparently £22m?
