We never do transfers early.
Things get done but it's the life of a blue to wait.
Not what we want but there it is.
No point in stressing over it, it makes you feel x10000 worse and doesn't result in players signed.
 
Honestly I think this scenario, which is likely, isn't even sell to buy for us. I think United are probably going through the same thing but at a higher scale of course. Even if we had no issues it would make little sense for Moshiri, or the Glazers, to pump money into a club that won't be theirs for much longer. Moshiri might be selling us for £400m or whatever it is, that's with or without improvements to the squad, why would he effectively throw away anything from £10m to £50m that he won't get back in a sale in the next few months, makes no sense for him.

Now that's not a good situation of course but it's at least a glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel that it'll "eventually" be fixed at least. It's a poor choice but if given it I'd take a mad dash scramble at the end of the window under new ownership that allows us to be free to spend rather than penny pinching under Moshiri for the next undetermined amount of time.
Moshiri isn`t selling the club, MSP are pumping in £200m as a loan but being offered shares instead of repayment with MSP getting places on the board...

Moshiri will still be the owner/majority shareholder, Moshiri isn`t going anywhere until the stadium is built then the club might be sold if he can find a buyer and we are still a Premier League side.

He will easily find a buyer when the stadium is built
 
In this window there will be some sales (Simms, Gray etc) and some players going out on loan (Holgate, Gomes etc), that will not bring in the type of money we need to rebuild this squad so I think we will see an Onana or Pickford leave to fund that.
