I don't think so. Young, yes. Jones... I don't think they've signed him, and I don't think he'll end up there.

Jones valued by Rovers at £25 million

Phil Jones' move to Manchester United from Blackburn Rovers has been put on hold by a dispute about the player's valuation - and ESPNsoccernet can reveal a growing row between the two Premier League clubs.

Phil Jones: Rated by his club as the new Tony Adams or John Terry
• Jones on brink of United move
• On The Move - Transfer Blog

ESPNsoccernet has learned that Blackburn value Jones far in excess of the £16 million offered by Manchester United to trigger what the champions believe is a release clause.

A Rovers insider told ESPNsoccernet that the player is "the nearest thing to a Tony Adams or John Terry" and that, in the view of Rovers, and their advisers put him in the £25 million category.

Unusually, the player has already passed his medical and agreed personal terms with United, which normally means the clubs have agreed the fee but ESPNsoccernet has discovered that a clause in Jones' contract only triggers the player's ability to discuss a potential move with a club who offers £16 million rather than fully complete the deal. Rovers' hierachy's stance is that the deal is by no means done and they will hold out for more cash.

So Jones has been able to agree terms with Manchester United and go through the medical - even though the two clubs have failed to reach agreement. With Jones already believed to have turned down other moves to Liverpool and Arsenal, the move still looks likely to end at Old Trafford but the quibble over the fee may stall it for some time. United are yet to comment officially about the deal.
 
That is sooooo funny but it can't be true.

Phil Jones would never have been allowed to do a medical if a fee wasn't agreed between the clubs.
 
Weird clause. Why even allow him to speak? In the worse case scenario, he'll probably get his head turned and end up putting in a transfer request. How much 'loyalty fee' do Blackburn save from that?
 
even if he handed in a transfer request, they'd prob still charge fuckloads for him
 
He'll go there in the end but with a bit of luck United will be forced to use a lot more of their transfer fund than they planned.

No wonder Blackburn are saying this. Its the up side of all the media saying what a bargain he was!

Think that's just a rumour mate
 
If Blackburn really is asking for more money the £20 Million Hendo fee must have something to do with it.

Oliver Holt (Times) said after that rumour broke Jones turned up at the England camp grinning & got handshakes & slaps on the back, so I highly doubt there's any truth in it.

Yeah it's made up bullshit no doubt, but how come this deal still hasn't been announced?

I am pretty sure you have taken that quote from Oliver and wildly exaggerated it. It said something like he turned up with a smile and seemed in good spirits etc. It was in reference to he didn't look like a lad who had just failed a medical.

He's trying to ingratiate himself with the Manc supporters, but you'd have hoped he'd at least have a bit of respect for the club that gave him his chance.
