Nice deal.  I guess they found no takers for asked £60M fee or Madrid wanted more. Is it 45M pounds or Euros? Does it have an option to buy?

It's a 10m Euro loan fee, and depending on which paper you believe (BILD or Marca/AS), it's either a 35m buy option, or a 60m buy option.

I don't even care anymore.. when's this god-awful window close again?

Arsenal submitted 3rd bid for Lemar and nothing...  no rejection and no approval.  I hate this waiting game.

A lot of news coming out of Old Trafford today.

Per ESPNFC

- Rob Dawson of ESPNFC says that Ibra is well ahead of schedule and his doctors in the U.S. are amazed at his progress. Dawson predicts that Ibra will sign a short term deal with United.

- Dawson said that MUFC do not have interest in Bakayoko and are pressing hard for Dier. United believe Dier wants to move to Old Trafford and Mou has instructed Woodward to offer up to £60M for Dier.

- Dawson believes that a deal with Perisic will get done in the next few weeks. Currently there is a little bit of gap between the evaluations but he expects a compromise. Ideally United would like the deal to be completed before Inter head to China for their tour. Inter currently value Perisic at €55M and Untd. are closer to €40M.

- United is set to sell Adnan Januzaj to Sociedad for €11M.

Negative.  Looks like total deal is £40M.  £9M loan for 2 years with option to buy for £31M.  Actually a heck of a deal for Bayern.  Bayern sent Douglas Costa to Juve on 1 year loan wort £5M with option to buy for £35M.  Bayern basically replacing Douglas Costa with James but if James fails, they will sent him back to Real.

My guess is they've grown impatient. There's no way we just handed our second biggest rival a hell of a deal for no reason. I say it's even for us taking Kroos from them for so cheap.

Strange considering Milan was willing to pay 60M. My guess is James did not want to go to Serie A (desired Champion's League).

That deal screams "get out".  Basically, Real got rid of him.

Lacazette comes in as sub and scores right away.  His first shot in Arsenal shirt is a goal.

Kyle Walker to City is done for £50M. 

Benjamin Mendy is almost done for £40M (he did not traveled with Monaco).

Bokayoko is almost done with Chelsea for £40M.

Monaco is refusing to sell Lemar and Mbappe.  Monaco did not accept or reject Arsenal £45M bid but Lemar traveled with the team likely means the rejection is coming.

English player, same league, title competitor, huge need at position... definitely overpaid but there wasn't really a better option. Hoping City get Mendy as well to shore up the FB.

I definitely understand the logic behind acquiring him, and why it was a need for your guys, but still... £50-54 million? Highest price for a defender ever. Love me some Levy!
