5 - Iñigo Martínez

[RedxMAK]

Oof we got screwed

 

[Loki]

Thinking about it, I understand the decision to let him go for a small fee.

- He is on big wages, which help for the ffp, especially if he leaves with a fee, which will be purely a profit since he came for free.
- He is a year older
- He is usually injury prone and it was a miracle, that he could play the last season without big injuries. Just look at his recent past.
- The club still has 4 CBs (Cubarsi, Araujo, Christensen, Garcia)

The only con I see is, that he makes a good pair with Cubarsi and perfectly executes Flick's demands on the high defense line. But I trust Christensen to do it too and Araujo we need to wait how the pre-season helped him here.

It's a bit risky, but I think this is a case where the club would sell a player at the perfect opportunity, instead of holding on to him for longer than necessary and lose money.

he's returning to Bilbao

Nothing agreed yet between Bilbao and Al Nassr yet, just personal terms. We could still do this.

 

[Duwang]

LMAO He's leaving for free. We are worst selling club in the world.

 

[M3ls]

OMG WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

This is our only qualified left-footed centre-back.

Considering how important it is for Flick to have a left-footed player in the LCB position, this is a disaster.

Leaving for free. Confirmed lol!

Pretty ballsy move to let our starting CB leave on a free.

 

[draconifire]

HE WENT FOR FUCKING FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Deco needs to leave. NO WAY

 

[Messi983]

Lieporta needs to leave.

agree

 

[M3ls]

Most likely, Inigo himself wanted to leave. Perhaps he was offered a lot of money + he himself felt that he would no longer be able to withstand the dynamics of Flick's football.

 

[draconifire]

agree

Someone needs to fucking leave. No way we let a CB who had an amazing year last season go for fucking free.

 

[Loki]

No fee, then it makes the transfer a bit worse. But it still frees up around 9-10m salary, which is significant for the ffp.

If Flick trusts the 4 CBs we have left, it's good enough for me.

 

[FC B]

Is FC MEMElona back?

 

[jamrock]

Should get some money for him wtf.

But not fussed about him leaving

We still should have got something in return. Idiots can't even get a fee when our ex vice president is the president of a club that has limitless funds. You can't make that shit up.

Firstly I thought this is a deal from Laporta and Yuste so we get some of that Saudi money but now it just looks a standard idiotic Barca transfer.

 

[Loki]

He was just 2 years at barca, but made a bigger impact than many with 2-3 times that period. Thank you for last season and good luck warrior!
