Ignoring that Murtough was never on the tour I see

€73 + 12 Million is my prediction.
I don’t want to get my hopes up that’s all. I’d prefer a brief by a reliable English reporter
They're all in bed in Thailand
I need to see it 100% myself, but I think it’s really close now. It will be done since both clubs want this and the player himself would be happy to reunite with EtH.
Did he even unpack when he arrived in Barcelona?
You think his suitcase is waiting by the door unopened?

They surely haven’t persuaded us to pay the 17m have they? Surely not
Howard Nurse just tweeted "Chelsea then" and a picture of De Jong.
I was just about to say the people in charge have been lacking in this saga.
No title updates, no threadmarks, no nothin'!
Then, like a fountain in a desert, a title update appears!

If they were the add one they wanted, does it matter if it goes into Barca's accounts, or Frenkie's?
I agree with keeping the vast majority of Spanish reporting at a distance, but Ducker confirmed yesterday "the club sought assurances from the player" and that is why we are still going.
Barca basically hit JM with the ‘I only talk to bosses not the second in command’. Murtough went and called his boss and Richie Big Bollocks came and handled business.
Right pack it up. Amsterdam next on the jolly boy’s outing to get Edwin smashed on hookers and blow.
He'll feck both clubs and refuse the transfer. Then Barca will get desperate and sell him at a discount to Chelsea.
Rampa de sortida
Frenkie sell that Spanish villa
and Rampa de sortidao a Manchester!

Is it possible that the convincing part is not just about accepting United offer, but also for de Jong to accept how Barca would pay for his deferred wage? We should already done the first part before we made an effort to sign him
I’m sure you do but I was talking about what Barcelona wanted!
Fair enough. Sorry.
You'll all see that we are the ones that will pay half if not all of Frenkie's paycut
This guy knows feck all. In fact, he's probably just read the article on the Telegraph and decided that because all the journos are out of the country in Bangkok he can steal it for himself.
Waiting on shrager or some other piss on your chips type to say this is not true.
We haven’t discussed personal terms so that part is remaining. Hopefully that is the convincing part
Stone is sleeping thankfully.
Isn't that what everyone now believes the add-ons are for?
Well if you want to compare Sport and Oriol Domenech, then point taken.
If La Liga did not enforce rules then Messi would still be at Barcelona right now...?
A million percent it's already been sorted.
No, not really. If all Barca are receiving is 55m in total then that’s fine. I assumed this was on top of the 55m+ performance related add ons we’d already heard about.
I would presume the convincing was done a while ago by ten Hag.
Most likely we have agreed to pay more in guaranteed fees so that Barca can cover their ass and give the deferred payment to FDJ.
In this day and age, when was the last time you heard 2 clubs had ageed a fee but the transfer failed because the player couldn't agree terms?
Nearly every high profile transfer nowadays starts with the club agreeing terms with the players agent before the club starts negotiating with the club. It's not permitted, but everyone does it.
Hello Barcaforum lurkers!
I'll probably sound really dumb now but i couldn't find on google, whats is rampa de sortida?
Can’t believe I bothered to check
Yes that part looked odd when it was reported. Maybe its down to convincing the player about of how the deferred salary will be paid
