VillaChris Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 How come Atletico were happy to accept a loan with Barca but apparently that's non-negotiable with us. They also loaned him to Chelsea for six months and there was option to buy that Chelsea didn't activate. I really don't understand why it can't just be a loan with option to buy in January if he hits the ground running. Not our fault they signed him on a seven year deal and are feeling the consequences of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea they thought would buy him end of contract and Barcelona he signed a new 5 year deal to allow it to happen as think his contract was supposed end this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see why this is still dragging on, is everything really dependant on Duran going and do we need that money to bid an acceptable figure? Sounds like a case for the Felix & Gomez Detective Agency (as recently formed by Xela in the Summer Transfer Window) to find some answers to.....

To be honest what choice do A.Madrid have as we seem to be the only buyer for a player they are desperate to get rid of and now with their recent purchases have even less space for….

CVByrne Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 9 hours ago, villan-scott said: Come end of August he'll have about €44m left of book value to Atletico but surely on €8-10m wages. So assume it's an offer of a loan now with option to buy or we buy him outright now for around €30m+ I hope we put him on wage structure full of incentives but not a crazy high base wage. So when he's playing and doing well he gets top end money but if he falls off the cost is lower 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSvillain Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 It just looks like your classic negotiation, we start at 32m, they start at 60m, we will meet somewhere in the middle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strog Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 I was in Portugal recently and talking to a local. They said the talent is undoubted but his mind set and work ethic is lacking. I’m not sure this is something we should take a risk on unless it’s a loan deal initially. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s something that doesn’t quite feel right, it could be the fee, it could be his inability to fit into 3 different teams, it could be it hampers Rogers coming through, it could be nothing. Just not as excited by this as some 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
