...you could just be overthinking this, which is understandable.
Dortmund set a deadline, with a specific asking price. United failed to meet it.
Maybe Sancho wants the move, but if he is agitating for one we would know, it would be more obvious.
Nothing Sancho can do to lower the asking price. Dortmund appear to mean what they say.
And if you think a deal could be close, that presupposes Dortmund set a deadline they were prepared to break.
United could find the money, but they are reluctant at this time...
...and l think they believe the asking price is too high in this market.
This will be over in about two days...
...to everyone’s relief. Mine included.
