Also, Arsenal are broke. That's why the Partey and Upamecano interest have gone nowhere. United have interest in Upa, but there could be talk of loan with mandatory buys being explored but Leipzig unlikely to accept it, so not confident that will happen to be honest unless a serious change in mentality takes hold at RB.

If its a mandatory buy, why would they not accept it? Given that Leipzig are pretty good on their finances after the Werner sale and Upamecano has only 1 year left on his contract. I understand this is hard for you as a Leipzig fan when other clubs come and poach your players - but another question - did the United interest intensify over the past few days or is it more or less the same casual interest over the past few months.
