I know it's been reported by the daily mail but the fact we're being linked to a £100m move for Di maria is crazy to me! For me that money would be better spent on bringing back Ronaldo. The way I see our transfer dealings going we'll sign Rojo and Blind for a combined fee of around £30m, Benatia still seems possible with Vlaar most likely backup while I reckon be Vidal OR Di Maria if we're to get either as our big marquee signing
Sorry for the long post

Crazy money but that includes wages for a termed contract, ronaldo is 30 next year and with wages would cost a lot more than di maria,

Get over Ronaldo, it's midfield and defense where we are struggling.
The prority should be Vidal and two center backs.

Next time read it whole. 50m Fee + 50 million in terms of wages (@ 10m per year for 5 year deal)

We are not going to sing Vlaar. Wait it out man.

AVO,

You have fallen into the trap of reading a headline and not the story. The Daily Fail like to make people buy their paper with a massive headline that people believe. Surprisingly we will not be paying 100m for Di Maria, this would be the cost of him over say a 5 year spell, with wages etc. Ronaldo would cost considerably more.

It's a £100m package, not a £100m transfer fee. His five year salary is included in the £100m plus other costs.

Ronaldo's wages will be close to that over 5 years I would imagine.
