My understanding is that they were pretty easy to meet, so was more giving Lazio some wiggle room if he got hurt or massively underperformed.Didn't know that. Checked TransferMarket and it says obbligation to buy with conditions, don't know what those are. I think he's the type of player that Sarri likes so it might be difficult to take him from Lazio. Valued 28 million, Ricci 30 on that site.
there will always be exceptions to the rule? but if any big club were really interested in splashing big money on them they would have been gone like lukaku, hakimi, onana, icardi, kovacic, skriniar8, 7 and 6 years, they are already counted as as retained since they spent their best years with inter.
not only did inter kept them, but also added to the squad...
Ibra and him could talk about things like not being able to read and how much tougher life is these days with Mino around to do all of their thinking for themWould people take Donnarumma back for free? I know I would!
We're not broke.My understanding is that they were pretty easy to meet, so was more giving Lazio some wiggle room if he got hurt or massively underperformed.
It was a 2 year loan and Sarri had asked for him… I’d love to get him just don’t think we can. They’re going to demand a lot and we’re broke
depends where is the limit on big money,there will always be exceptions to the rule? but if any big club were really interested in splashing big money on them they would have been gone like lukaku, hakimi, onana, icardi, kovacic, skriniar
Bayern want Leao
City got Reijnders
Chelsea want Maignan
Theo Hernandez? Al Hilal
Theo fell off so badly
if he is not gone this summer, he ll most likely be gone next.All our players want out apparently. Well, now it makes sense why we looked so unmotivated and toothless for most part of last season.
Headline was that they did something with Milan .
Twenty plus bonuses .So....
Kalulu for 14M + 3M bonuses
Pellegrino for 4M + 10% sell on
Tiji for 57M + ~ 15M Bonuses
CDK 23M + 10% sell on
What's our budget for this Summer?
Is Gerry going to give us the usual 50M transfer kitty?
That already bumps us up to 148M.
If we sell Theo (30M), that's 178M.
He looks so happy .
We are really great at devaluating our own players. If its not enough assists, its lack of goals, effort, behavioral. Now its CL contribution and finishing midtable. I'd rather say he came from Eredivisie, became a leader at Milan, double digit goals, modern player, just renewed his contract. 75m or gtfo.He went to City at 25 - 26 which seems to be the tipping point for promise and finished product.
He played in EPL which counts for more than people like to credit when it comes to fees and because he was a star in Portugal after Enzo his price was pumped which continued across in transfers.
What did Milan do in CL? Milan finished midtable so City took the player they liked because they knew Milan would be open to selling and the player would be open to leaving. I struggle to see how looking at this from outside how we get 80-90 mill.
Also the fact that we are bad at selling since Berlusconi probably plays into what our market is - we held a bunch of players and ended up with much less so its hard to win out.
Kaka and sheva were here for 7 seasons?Did Kaka tho?
Or Ibra?
Or TS?
Or Sheva?
He (or them) were just being cooperative as a professional.
If you take players only on memorable moments, i’d only remember Gattuso for choking Joe Jordan.

Well you can spin that to your hearts content but when the negotiation starts it's none of us in the room is it.We are really great at devaluating our own players.

Leao?Can we sell anyone to man utd? They just paid 75m for some rando from Wolves
Hence why im calling out our historical incompetence in hereWell you can spin that to your hearts content but when the negotiation starts it's none of us in the room is it.
I learned from Smurf this has something to do with EPL mark up.Can we sell anyone to man utd? They just paid 75m for some rando from Wolves
Oh on that part I agree but I think it's hard to get a higher price given all I laid out.Hence why im calling out our historical incompetence in here![]()
Im with you on all this. I support the sale completely. I just can't grasp the full deal as I feel its some millions shortOh on that part I agree but I think it's hard to get a higher price given all I laid out.
People keep trying to handwave these things away though like they don't exist. He isn't 22 - 23 some new hotness or played in EPL where it's seen as a plus or went through CL killing teams.
So after we disappear and can offer him no CL how do we extract more other than taking him off the market and hoping he repeats those numbers ..... But then he will be a year older and haven't played CL so they will use the limited schedule against him.
We want to sell for more... Playe younger players and do well in marquee matches and be willing to sell when they are hot.
Why are people keep acting like we live in some bizarro universe where these things don't apply????
