I think Atal and Mukiele would likely also be for the future considering Atal is coming off a major knee injury and may take time to recover or be ready for the PL and Mukiele is mainly a CB is he not? So may also take time to fully switch over to RB.
I also don't know why Celik or Castagne would be for the future? They are either ready to come in now or not worth buying at their age/experience.
How much would Doherty be?
Have we been linked to Doherty? If so who by? He would cost a ton
Klaiber from Utrecht has brilliant stats, wouldn't cost much and would fit us,other than that have no clue, we will end up with that Lille rightback

One of the rumour merchants linked it last week. I can't remember who it was but I don't think it was a strong link or a reliable source.
Doesn't he manage the scum now that Pep promoted the ball boy?
My concern would be he has had one year at the PL level and is now 27. Was last year a good year for him or is he a unique player that improved so much late in his career.
I also don't think he would leave Sheffield United unless for a big over pay both in terms of salary and a transfer fee and I am not sure he is worth that risk.
In my opinion, the fact that he is 27 shouldn´t be a problem. He´s younger than Aurier, for example - still going to be 27 until March 2021 -, and he´s got at least 5 years in him. Also, we need a balanced squad, and not a super young squad.
About the fee, as I said, he´s got two years left in his contract, so this is probably Sheffield´s last chance to make a good profit on him. He is Premier League proven - a player ready to come in and play. If he costs a bit more than the likes of Castagne, it´s probably for a good reason.

Beware Sheff U players; I suspect they are the proverbial 'system players' (like most of Poch's S'ton crop).
My concern with him being 27 is that he is 27 with one season of PL football. For the vast majority of his career he has played it outside of the PL and it wasn't like he was dominating those leagues with his outstanding skill.
Its possible that he was always good enough to be in the PL and it didn't show and it is also possible that he was a late bloomer that didn't develop his full skills until after he was 25, but as Airfixx points out below its also possible that he looked good last year because he fits well in that Sheffield United system.
I am just leery of buying an older player with one good season, playing in a system for a coach he is familiar with and doesn't have much history before that one season indicating that he would be a good PL player.
I tend to agree, but even if that´s the case, Baldock could be an exception.
His style of play, up and down the pitch for 90 minutes (and he played all 38 Premier League this season), it´s perfect for what Mourinho wants from his offensive FB.
And also, his crosses would work in any system.
Can we sell the bald midget, who is definitely a burden on wages
Yeah but that hat trick he got put us in the CL Final last year?
I thought he meant Levy...lol genuinely
