I believe he wants to come, but we don't want him.

Player Valuation: A packet of pork scratchings
I think Mata would rather stay at United and fight for a place personally, however United will need to move a few on to balance the books and with United signing 2 star players who are likely to play in advanced midfield positions, where does Mata fit in?
I think they'll tell him he's done there and he'll reluctantly move on, but I think this one could drag on until the deadline.

Hmmm... we'll see.
Teams that could afford his fee/wages...
RS - Utd would never sell to them, plus they have about 16 no.10s
Spurs - A possibility, though he wouldn't be guaranteed a starting place.
Arsenal - Loads of similar players. Would Mou sell to a direct 'rival'? (he never viewed Utd as a rival to CFC when Moyes was there)
Chelsea - Would he go back there? Again, no guarantee of a starting place and wouldn't really fit in Conte's system or style.
Atleti - Doubtful they could afford his wages, doesn't suit Simeone...
PSG - Could afford him, but again doesn't really suit Emery? A possibility though.
Valencia - Maybe, just about, they could afford his fee and salary for the season with the money they got for Gomes.
Real - No chance he's going there.
Barca - Would be a squad player and they've signed two or three midfielders this summer.
Juve - Again, a possibility, but unlikely due to system.
Inter - Possibly the most probable now that they have a few bob again.
Napoli - potentially could go for him with spare cash left over from Higuain.
Neither Bayern or Dortmund need nor want him.
Out of those realistic options, you've got three that are likely, I'd say...
Inter, Napoli and Spurs.
none, which means we're more likely to be interested
note: we definitely are interested though

I believe that if we build it, he will come.

West Ham ? Surely they will bid a week after we do.

I believe if it's the stadium that we are building, Mata will be 126 years old by the time he comes.
Just Mata please.
Now mate, that Rachid Ghezzal is a player, I don't normally take any notice of youtube clips, because anyone can be made to look good, but his first touch, and close control are exquisite, and he has got a sweet left foot, would love him here.
Mahrez-lite by the sounds of it isn't he?
Here's a quote from that journo's article ---

To me looks like Lyon are determined to keep him. I've honestly never seen him play (not even a YT clip) or even heard of him.

Having just spoke to my fat Man United supporting work colleague i'd like to raise this percentage to 46.8177177171% chance that he will sign for us.
Basically fat man doesn't think Mata has much hope of getting in their team at all.

neither do i, that added about 15% when mourinho subbed mata off after being subbed on. He knew exactly what he was doing and mata's seen it all before with him.
