You're confusing me. An obligation to buy means no one else can come in for him.

It won't start a bidding war. It means it's a done deal and Getafe's record signing seems to have been about €11m.

Sorry, there’s likely plenty of permutations in the small print, I haven’t read any so was generalising about strategy.

Believe Woziak gives an example permutation below.

In short, we don’t know the details, but both clubs will be working to get the best deal for themselves for sure
 
Oh you guys want to just keep loaning him until his contract runs out? Sure! Why wouldn't we agree to that. You're always so friendly and accommodating that we would love to do you another favour!

Pay up or hush up.

United have yet to enter talks with Espanyol, Joselu's parent club. Regardless, Joselu will prioritise Real Madrid over every other option.

Complete balls. Agent posturing as usual

I have to laugh when they say it isn't achievable. Of course it is. If they were buying him back they can use some of the money we paid for him.

Admittedly Sancho would likely need a pay cut but if he likes it so much there...

Would be a comical signing, not what the team needs in any way shape of form.
 
We won't get £50m for him obviously. His book value is £29.2m, so I suspect we'd be happy with a £30m bid and not having to cover any of his wages.

Very interesting player, but can't imagine we'll take someone from the Bundesliga 2 over a Leipzig or Bayern. Maybe more chance of breaking into the first team with us now though, I guess :nervous: .

I feel like he’s actually the kind of player INEOS would be interested in as a project. Pafundi is another one who has gone to their Swiss team on a decent fee. Same with the Norwegian lad Nypan. I like this, these lads are playing first team footbal and standing out despite being so young.

We'd be in dreamland to get anything like £30m. It will be another loan (with us footing some of the cost) at best.
 
I just don't get why it would be impossible for Dortmund to pay close to £40 million for Sancho. They regularly spend £25-27 million for players who are inferior in quality to Sancho - but everytime Dortmund is involved it's "Loan" or "We can't afford it". Nmecha, Haller, Adeyemi, Malen, Bellingham, Hummels and Diallo have all cost just shy of £30 million in the last 3-4 seasons. So it should be perfectly possible for Dortmund to spend a bit extra to keep Sancho. We might not get £50 million for him - but Dortmund can afford £35-40 million. If they don't - send him to someone else.

True, I just think with money tight, will they be able to do these transfers plus improve the first team squad. Unsure.

Another decent performance against PSG especially if he knocks them out might see them direct their attention back to Osimhen at CF and Sancho at Left wing then he’s £50m all day long?

They've only ever spent over £30m once (Dembele). Sancho is hardly good enough to be their record signing with wages a big stumbling block.
 
Dortmund can feck off.

Their entire sales pitch is we are poor while selling players for record value.

Pay up or feck off.

On top of that they've sold Haaland, Sancho and Bellingham for big fees.

They can't afford his salary, so they'll just chance their arm getting him on the cheap for as long as they can. Not a hope of them ever buying him.

Arsenal's one of the PL clubs looking at him, and I wouldn't be surprised if they pull the trigger on him as he might be the cheapest option out of Gyökeres and Toney.

Not at €75m and un tested in PL?

Toney has degraded his market value over the last 8-10 games or so. His agent could argue it's because he plays for a generally average side, certainly this season (except when they play United, in which instance they look like peak Liverpool) and also wants to leave, but there have apparently been questions previously over whether he provides enough in terms of workrate: nevertheless he'll probably be cheapest, around 50m. Gyokeres has had a worldie of a season, but prior to this he'd never scored goals at anything above Championship level, and is a bit of a risk. Nunez also tore the Portuguese league up with similar numbers and, whilst DN obviously offers Something in terms of physical attributes and attitude, the jury is out over whether he was good value for what Liverpool paid there, given his erratic finishing etc. I think Sesko is probably the best gamble out of the 3, though more so at 50m than 65...
