10 - Lamine Yamal

[Temptation]

Don't wanna sound sentimentalist but what's the lamasia ideology if we gonna end up paying those players the market value . Didn't Barca basically change their lives ? Messi and yamal I mean ? Just for them to milk the club dry as if Barca recruited them from elsewhere like Vardrid does . Won't lie. When I hear Masia players making astronomical wages I loose a tiny bit of affection for them. Happened to me wih Messi too. Maybe I'm unrealistic , maybe those players are too pragmatic .. don't know.

Hometown discount isn't a real thing.

Yeah .. that's why I don't respect that. Still it's not an absolute thing. There have been genuine sacrifices in the past made outside the materialistic world. Juventus players playing with Juventus in seconda comes to mind, mainly Buffon.

It's a myth and narrative that the club loves to peddle. In the end it's marketing.
Lamine deserves to get paid well but making him the highest paid earner at 17 doesn't sit well with me.
We can than expect Messi like renewals which will milk the club dry and remember he's only starting. The Messi camp started it after his Balon Dor win

Don't go crazy with his wages. 16m is enough for a player that just had one elite season.

 

[BJJ]

Also how are we supposed to buy and register players if Lamine wants such a massive payrise.
I don't believe Laporta when he says we're 1 to 1. I'm sure Tebas will be a party pooper and contradict Laporta.

Yeah let's not Fatty him too soon. That's old Suarez or Fati wages for him.

We will never be 1:1. Tebas will never let it happen as long as we play LaLiga.

 

[Windhook]

The club learned its lesson post-Neymar, including astronomic release clauses on players. Who's gonna pay 500m for Fermin?

Under the financial crisis Laporta manages way better than Barto the player salaries. But he's not without mistakes - Fati got a 6 year lavish contract back in 2021 that still hangs around our neck.

LaLiga are relaxing the rules so Madrid can sign big and use their training land being converted to commercial land development for their FFP income.

So we may speak by until LaLiga decide to tighten rules in a few years time citing some bollocks.

I'd understand if he had two or three great seasons behind him but last season was his first real breakout season. It's too much too soon imo.
Fuck these oil clubs. They've destroyed football.

This. But purely because of age. We can't break structure before he is 18. It's not sustainable.

PSG would pay 500mil for Yamal, so we better use that one billion clause for him.

I am not kidding about the 500mil.

They were willing to throw 200mil at him earlier. After this season? 500mil.. I think they could do it.

Whatever clauses you put, Saudis will match it. Then it's up to the player himself.

Probably true. If he has another crazy season,one billion isn't out of reach. It's so sick.

We are talking about the world best player at 18.. is it worth one billion? Yes. Messi at 20-22 was for sure.

Is it lunacy? Still yes, but they have too much money to care.
