Pretty sure that £11m could be better used elsewhere

Would be a bizarre signing that.

Expensive replacement for Mendy

Free maybe, otherwise no thanks.

No.

If you're going to do proper clickbait headlines you need to make them as vague as possible.

So never mention two clubs. Maybe one club (as long as it's a big one), but make the other one as vague as possible, so as many fans as possible think it could be their club.

And only mention a player's name if it's a big star. If it's not a big star, describe him in a way that makes it sound like he is.

That's how you get clicks.

And that's even though Matic signed a new one year contract extension with United the day before. Tripe.
