He could also get a loyalty bonus at Bayern and then a signing on fee after his next, shorter contract

2 years on 24m or 4 years on 16m which do you take? Its obviously different when you are 33 than when you are 27
And when the money from the levers has all dried up, they'll be in the same place.
Basically of de Jong doesn't accept the pay cut, which by all accounts he won't then what
Fair enough
Bayern already officially rejected Barcelona's bid of 40 million Euro plus 7 million Euro add-ons.
Where do the two years come from?
Awful source unfortunately but we know it’s true.
How dare they.
Close to that amount.
How can that be understood? Activating exits by paying those who leave what they owe to them?
La Liga filing the complaint already
Convinced this isn’t happening now. God knows who the plan B is.
How long will we continue with this if they are unwilling to negotiate at all I wonder? We must have set a deadline cause we need to buy a midfielder before the window? End of July perhaps.
Absolutely nothing suggests that
You'll know within the next 24 hours If it's off I'd say. A brief will be coming or reports that the deal is off will be emerging soon if it truly is.
Until then, we don't know
I genuinely don't know if this is all brinkmanship or whatever, but I'd be inclined to pick up the phone, thank them for wasting two months of our lives and tell them that out of respect for their decision, we'll shop elsewhere instead.
FDJ is safe with you, and we won't bother you anymore.
End of, unless you call us.
I think that we at least have to be prepared to walk away, otherwise this one could still be in limbo up to the final day...
Yeah makes sense. But only if Bayern extend for a single year @Cassidy
We're simply holding tight till they have sorted out the finances and can pay De Jong what he's owned I imagine
I agree we should just give up and walk away.
That was what the person asked hence my response.
Its unlikely Bayern extend him on the same money for more than the next 2 years anyway, he'll be 35 by then, and the reason we are here with Lewan is because they were actively looking to replace him anyway
Lewandowski got an offer for 3 years only, not 4 years. That's at least reported everywhere here in Germany.
Why, from how it sounds as far as United are concerned things are going well.I genuinely don't know if this is all brinkmanship or whatever, but I'd be inclined to pick up the phone, thank them for wasting two months of our lives and tell them that out of respect for their decision, we'll shop elsewhere instead.

Really
Ok so 24 x2 = 16x3 doesn't it? Bare in mind he is already aware Bayern were actively trying to replace him before his contract was up

Fair play brother, anyway this is done.Really
That's what was reported, a one year extension like Müller and Neuer got.
This will obviously happen. Barca will make the best deal possible for them and we will do the same. Was not going to be a quick ride this one.
It would be a much better situation if it were any other club. But this is Barca we are talking about. Probably the most unprofessional club these days. Wouldn't surprise me one bit if they back out or demand more at a later point.
I hope we are still in this because there is genuinely some progress in negotiations happening.
So, am I understanding this right..
If he stays there, they’ll force him to take a massive pay cut and forego a shit load of money owed to him?

Things are going so swimmingly well that the president of Barca has twice said that the player isn't for sale, and I don't know how many times the player has said he wants to stay in Barcelona.
If you have insider knowledge, then hats off to you...
That was made up by the press. Bayern never really negotiated with Haaland. The Haaland package was just insane money.
Salihamidciz only met Haaland once when he was in Munich anyway for a medical. That's all. Bayern never spoke to his agent.
Do my eyes deceive me? Has Berba given up? Has Barca broken him??
Laporta is a bullshitter mate. Well known.Things are going so swimmingly well that the president of Barca has twice said that the player isn't for sale, and I don't know how many times the player has said he wants to stay in Barcelona.

Irony radar well and truly broken here
I think Simon Stone posted that article just to demonstrate how ridiculous the situation is from the Barcelona side.
