Not sure if clubs will want to sell. Probably worth more keeping the players.
Depay will be impossible to replace for Lyon.
And I think both Liverpool and City realize a bigger squad is necessary for this season. 2-3 players in the same position can easily be missing for a game. If I were Liverpool and City I wouldn't sell Gini or Garcia for the 5-10m Barca will offer.
These wage restructures can't be enforced just to buy players, it's to survive financially.

We won't need to pay 20m for Memphis. We apparently had a closed deal for around 8m and add-ons on the last day of the transfer window but couldn't sign him because Dembele refused to leave and we couldn't add more wages.
Also, transfer fees and wages are not directly connected.
Depay would only cost the club around 11% of whatever his transfer fee will be if he comes in January and signs a 4,5 year contract. So his transfer cost for the club for this (half) season would only be around 1-1,5m.

Good point.
All three have contracts expiring half a season later so transfer fees will be at their lowest.
For the clubs it will be case of if it is more valuable to have half a season of football + wages or drop wages + transfer fee.
Liverpool and Man City (especially if they have CB performance issues) will probably choose to keep the player but I can see Lyon taking the financial incentive- even if Depay is the hardest to replace out of the trio.

🗣 ? Piqu? on Valverde's dismissal: "The players were called up for a meeting and asked - 'should we sack him, or not?' - when we had already clearly said that they [the board] are the ones who should make the decision."

Yet they bitched about the decision. Management would make a bad decision either way.

Villarato!
I just don't understand the loose relative "it's an achievement to drag even this many out to vote".
How can you be anywhere near satisfied with club being 'more alive than ever' when you get a measly 20% of the total turning up?
