Has he turned us down? All I’ve heard is that he wants to stay at Rosenborg for the time being (frankly even if we signed him now, it would probably make sense to loan him back to them)

Well we made an offer for him and he's said he's staying put. So that's not really accepting our offer, is it? If we're not getting a striker this window then the season is over for us, pressure off, zero expectations, would have been a useful period between now and the end of the season to get a youngster acclimatised. Whatever, at least he's not going anywhere else so we can still underbid for him in the summer.

The likelihood of him getting significant game time with us between now and end of the season was next to nothing. And I think that’s why he’s decided to stay I think.
I’m saying a player who knows he is a starter for his current club probably thinks it’s too much of a risk hoping on injuries to guarantee game time where he might be thrown in at the deep end given there’s a bit of a gap between Norwegian football and the premier league.
You’re right I’m only speculating but given he’s chosen to stay with his current club, what’s the alternative theory…potentially holding out for a bigger salary at Man City where he’s going to be even further down the pecking order?. Possibly
Heard Tel is going to Utd now. Something about the spuds flying out to secure the deal and the player saying no. Sounds a bit of a flirty girl to me. Now we'll definitely be getting Rashford and all his luggage.

It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
