Manchester United’s sensational record breaking transfer demands - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Manchester United have found themselves worse-off following dealings with Real Madrid i the past. It looked like the same trend would continue with the David De Gea deal. The Spanish goalkeeper was clearly the Red Devils’ best player last season, and losing him would be a big blow.
But now, in an incredible story that broke today, as covered here by The Guardian, United have set some phenomenal terms and conditions if Madrid are to land De Gea. The Spanish giants will only be able to buy the goalkeeper if they sell defender Sergio Ramos to the 20-time English champions.
Ramos has been an ever-present in the Madrid backline for the past decade now. Since joining from Sevilla in 2005, he has made well over 400 appearances, winning three La Liga titles, two Spanish cups and a Champions League.
His release clause is set at a staggering €180 million, but United feel they can get away with not paying this amount if they sell De Gea in return. Ramos’ contract at the Santiago Bernabeu runs out in 2017, and talks over a new contract have been at a standstill for a while now.
