    90% of players who signed contract yesterday was called "not worth the money" too. Years are more important than amount in his case, 2 + 1is good deal, and Kyroe is still a top player that you can't afford to let go for nothing. So you have to pay him

    A reasonable one.

    Vitor Roque

    Those numbers that were counted would be called "agent fees,signing bonus" nowadays tbh. It is like saying City paid 60M for Halaand, when in truth he probably got far more for his dad and agent. But yeah, Neymar was far more costly than Roque qho is signing a decade later. Brazil has yet to...

    Arda Güler

    Those deals sound good on paper more than in reality tbh. Betis is suffering from economical difficulties just like our, they are also an ambition team who won't be there to just develop players for us. You also have to look from the player perspective. Turkey is a fairly big and wealthy...

    Arda Güler

    It seems He is a 2024 signing if it happens. We are negotiating with his club, we won't pay release clause right away either. He joins next year, enjoy playing 1 extra year as a starter there, doesn't impact our transfer this season. The club president there is Beko owner, we have strong...

    Samuel Umtiti

    AFAIK, Chelsea was purchased by clearlake capital. Boehly is part of that and is the club chairman but he doesn't own it entirely same way Roman did. Clearlake is investment fund, with 72B or so of assets they manage. And apparently PIF has stakes in it. Some claim Clearlake manage their assets...

    Samuel Umtiti

    Clubs knew we are broke and had no leverage when we sold Coutinho for 20M, Griezmann for 25M etc. Umtiti was dead money for 5 years. He isn't even a desirable player. Other than Neves (Mendes) and Chelsea players' (they are partners with Boehly) Saudi had low balled clubs. Even Brozovic sale is...

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    I said it before, he is closer to Barca B level than 1st team. But potential is big. Very smart and fundamentally sound player at both ends.

    7 - Ferran Torres

    Even if Ferran ever prove his worth, it won't be here. Mentally he is just not there for whatever reason. It happens, and him having just broken up with his GF, I think fresh start is the best solution for everyone

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Prim and Casado both struggle against more physical opponents who presses them. And that is in U-17 or 3rd division. Think of Eric Garcia, whom every coach rave about how smart he is, but when he is against professionals he suffers because his mind isn't quick enough and his body doesn't...

    Marcelo Brozovic

    Look at redcafre, bluemoon, bayernforum. Nah, Frenkie is loved in those places mate.

    Barca Transfers and Rumors

    Brozovic used Barca as negotiating leverage, that was clear from the start. His dad played the Saudi with those cryptic messages, media leaks and he got 50% increase in his contract.

    Marcelo Brozovic

    Not disagreeing with your post overall, but this part take it too far. You read other forums and social media and Pedri is very highly rated and thought for by non Barca fans, you look at wish list of top clubs and Frenkie is there for most of them. They aren't poster boy, that is for sure...
