RenfrewBlue Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 It appears to be happening. Barcelona have confirmed he's asked to go. Barcelona will be hungrily scouring their targets and Liverpool will be bricking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanderark14 Posted August 2, 2017 Author Share Posted August 2, 2017 I heard something on the radio about La Liga blocking the move due to financial fair play rules being breached. Missed most of the report from the radio Financial fair play is a joke as well but thats another argument Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it any of their business anyway if PSG breach FFP? Someone else was saying PSG are spending £200million on 1 player where others are spending 4 x £50 million, so no worse.

The Sun said psg could potentially put it through as a holding company expense, or something along those lines to avoid it coming directly from club funds. Thay also said his dad is delaying it so he can cash in on another £35 million from Barca, taking his fees to £111 million since his son joined them.

Big Col Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 whilst obscene if this goes through it's funny to see the spanish moaning about this.

If PSG want to spend £200m on a player so be it. Edited August 2, 2017 by Toepoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're also the ones setting the need for release clauses that was always going to end up in this situation. If they didn't make it compulsory for all players to have a release clause then this deal probably wouldn't be happening as Barcelona wouldn't deal with PSG.

Glasgowmancity Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 City were apparently in for him at the start of the summer, I thought it was fanciful that anyone would pay it tbh & even more fanciful that he would have left Barca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mox Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I've never understood this hyperbolic nonsense that somehow football is f u cked if someone transfers to someone else for X amount of money. If PSG want to pay it, then thats the value, simple as that, football won't stop tomorrow. Anyway, good move for Barca imo, I don't know if Neymar is as committed to improving to become the best player in the world as he has previously suggested and his apparent off field antics would seem testament to that. If Barca could get Dybala, Dembele or Mbappe for less than they sell Neymar, then they'll have played a blinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fecked because these teams continue to get richer and richer whilst leaving the rest of us behind. Celtic are one club who have suffered because of the emergence of super rich clubs. The money stays within the same leagues making them all stronger, this is also killing competition within European tournaments. thats why it's fecked.

I agree, it's been ####ed since the CL changed and allowed non league winners access to the super riches of the CL. This is only another step towards the European super league which the big boys want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
