Moving into the same territory as Emery now this, multiple sources saying it’s done, other sources saying we haven’t even made a bid. 
 

fingers crossed they don’t cock this up. 

No bullshit sources said that. 

 

Yorkie got ahead of himself by making a thread based on a Luke Edwards article :lol:

Negotiating a fee and making a bid are different things. We sound out a ball park figure, if it works we see what the player would want, if that works we go back to the club with an opening bid, almost certainly lower than the original price and haggle until both parties are happy.

 

We won't make an official bid until, well, very soon. It sounds like Trippier is up for it. It sounds like Athletico are game. If we don't sign him, it's more likely that we have found someone else.

I don't think we'll be looking anywhere else unless either Trippier or Athletico price themselves out. If both are reasonable you would imagine it gets done.
