We should be getting money for him.
I don't know all the financials. But with the FFP looming and fuckin Scrotum saying we can't register without sales, the whole of Europe knows we got a paper hand. That's one problem.
But mostly, the salaries we have these guys on is the most limiting factor. Ter Stegen salary is a large unknown because Catalan media is saying it is big (20m, probably with his deferrals), while sources like Capology have it as unverified.
The only thing we do know is he took a 30% "paycut" in 2023 which is what he will ask the club for to leave. Completely logical on his part.
The last problem is we are [obviously] not an EPL club to take advantage of their inner bubble, but also lack the connections on a leadership business level to get those Saudi deals that, for example, Boehly can smash out in Saudi.
