Talk of the Devils<\/a>: \u201cIt sounds like he is, but when I spoke to somebody in Madrid after he had signed the contract, let me just read the text back \u2013 \u2018They could still sell him\u2019.<\/p>\n\u201cSo, there you go. \u2018They could still him. I will try to find out\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, the player has obviously done well out of this.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis isn\u2019t the first time that this has happened, where a Real Madrid player has benefitted from Manchester United\u2019s interest.<\/p>\n
\u201cLook, Utd were interested in him, as you would be, because he\u2019s very good. As I have said on this podcast several times, the player\u2019s perfectly happy in Madrid. If that situation changes, he would be perfectly happy to play for Manchester United.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I did some calls last week to Madrid, or actually it was the US because that\u2019s where the journalists are covering the Spanish national team, they, one of the points put to me was Real Madrid want to buy big, so they need to sell big.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, who do they sell who they can get big money for? Fede Valverde has been told that he\u2019s going to be captain. If you don\u2019t want to be, mate, you can come to Old Trafford as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s no issue there. Camavinga wouldn\u2019t bring in as much money.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, that is a situation, so him signing a contract. I saw it sort of going off like a light \u2013 that\u2019s it, Manchester United won\u2019t be signing him.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wasn\u2019t quite so sure that you can write off any deal until the transfer window has closed.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked if there is a chance, Mitten responded: \u201cIt looks improbable.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it always looked improbable.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the chance comes if Real Madrid decide that they want to sell one of their very best players because they need money, and money dictates a lot of things in football.\u201d<\/p>\n
