What's so funny? That was just an example to simplify my point.
Could you tell us what's Casemiro's salary? And do you think Rabiot deserve twice the salary?
He is asking for a salary more than Luca Modric and comparable to Toni Kroos, Marcelo and Ramos.
You're funny.
1) You're not paying anyone 60M transfer fee.
2) You tell James Rodriguez, he'd earn that much and he'll smile at you.
3) Alisson, a keeper, is earning 6M base. Kepa, a YOUNGER keeper, is earning a 'rumored' 10M base (even if that's not true, it's in the range of 7-10).
And you're projecting some silly statements that never came out of my mouth. It's perfectly natural for a guy like Rabiot to try and hike his salary up given what his peers earn. And it'd be equally ridiculous if you actually gave it to him. It's in his interest to play for Barcelona, not the other way around. If you give him anything more than you did Dembele it'd be quite a farce. That said you can't give him much less either. That's the problem with the way your wage ladder works.
Useless to even bring up anyone from CKM into this conversation.
