Just a general query but from the last shakopod (which so far is proving bang on with Lindelof and Lukaku) it's easy to see which players are no longer available or applicable (greizemann) but are there any players that weren't featured that now are of interest? Or do you see any further incoming players coming solely from that shortlist?

{Ed002's Note - Generally not. Jose Mourinho had a clear idea of what and who he wanted and knew there would be some variables in there - and still are. For instance, if DDG were to look to leave they would be pressing very hard to get a goalkeeper in place before the sale - and buying high-end goalkeepers is very difficult and right now Atletico are not going to look to selling Oblak (although another side are pressing them), Donnarumma, Begovic and Ederson are no longer options so I am sure that there is an idea or two still lurking in the back of his mind - so that may well be one postion where we see a wildcard come up. A right back is still wanted but this is one I think will drag out - much would depend on Fabinho being signed and how he would be used - but the number one choice is still Nelson Semedo. Again the LB situtation is still unresolved but I think now you can strike Ryan Sessegnon off the list. Defensive midfield - he wants someone and could end up using Fabinho if he signs. Again a possible wildcard may pop up. Midfield - I still expect someone to be added. Perisic should soon be addressed.}

What do you mean about Perisic should be addressed soon ed002, are we close to signing him or is he off somewhere else.
As for Fabinho I would love him to come to United, can cover a few Positions for us.

Is there any chance Darmian could be sold to one of the Italian teams as well Ed002.

{Ed002's Note - I have explained over an d over about Periseic for months and there is no measure of "close". I have explained also about Darmian. Try the search engine or read the posts.}

Quick question for you ED002 if you had time. I realise it's likely to have been addressed in that last sentence but in reading the lengthy discussion on the liverpool page in regards to Keita. On that post you mentioned that RB Leipzig had been approached by an English side over one of their players. Previously one of the Eds mentioned that Manchester held an interest in Forsberg, I was wondering if that was the english club making that enquiry or am I just putting 2 and 2 together to make 5.

Also thanks for all your work on the site, particularly during the transfer market.

{Ed002's Note - It is unimportant about the approach - the move is almost certainly not going to happen.}
