If Bayern does not trigger that clause, I will laugh at them for their stupidity. I will not salute them for their integrity even thought that decision benefits us. James, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich all agreed on the loan/buyout deal in 2017. They can easily sell James to Juventus or England if he does not want to play for them. Something good will be there for them. Back in 200X, We triggered the buyback clause to bring Negredo back from Almeria and sold him immediately to Sevilla for a better profit. Was that wrong? Absolutely, not. Negredo, Real Madrid and Almeria agreed on the original buyback clause. Almeria gave us the option to buyback for a lower original transfer fees. Flo agreed to the loan. I have no idea why he gave Bayern Munich such a good deal, James probably considered Bayern Munich a good destination, given it was a top CL team. Bayern saw a bargain.... why not?
Well if Juventus buys him not sure where he can play. Dybala still their Maybe they play James of out position though ?
There might be a huge agent fee hidden behind all of it(to the tune of 5-10 mil.) that makes them want to chuck both player and agent away. If there is additional cost behind triggering the clause (They already paid Mendes 7 mil in agent fees for the loan deal) , they'd have to sell him at a bigger price to make profit, and if the player makes noise about not wanting to stay good luck with that.
If he's balling and they send him back to us it's been an incredible deal. It's still open how this will play out.
I'm torn. I obviously want him to have a strong Copa America for my country... but then he will garner interest and Bayern will activate the clause. Can he have a good end of the season, copa America and still come home to us?
Well if he plays well and his value goes up...it might play a role. Just like the world cup did for us
Now i see why you want James back so much despite the transfer not making much sense and are so protective of him, Not a dig at you but i wasn't aware he was your countryman.
Yeah my favorite player playing for my favorite team . Also we'd be getting a great player for free. Makes sense to me
Dybala is on his way out at Juve. My guess is they go for one of Isco or James. Would be kind of funny if they both end up there and one player gets benched for the other.
Apparently the club wasn't even that convinced of him but Carlo said he is the only player he wants. There have been rumors that when Kovac was close to getting sacked, James refused to support him in public the way other players did.
According to Kicker, Thomas Müller, Franck Ribéry, Arjen Robben and Mats Hummels have formed a 'veritable opposition' to Niko Kovac and are pushing for the coach to be dismissed. pic.twitter.com/3DBkmEqmh6— Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) November 5, 2018 The same guys who wanted Ancelotti fired. Is a pattern.
I haven’t really followed him since his move, would you say he is a better CM than Ceballos? As for the wings after seeing Vinicius do his thing I feel like we should stick to players with that characteristic for that position.
Lol Bayern needs to get rid of those grandpas Robbery first. They are in a good run and this clowns starting mutiny against the coach before Liverpool tie? Trash.
That is an old tweet.. it was what was happening early in the season when Kovac started running into problems. I think the club decided to back Kovac this time Since those guys, except Muller, are old and need to be phased out, which is what Kovac has done playing Gnabry and Coman..
Mueller should have been fazed out 3 seasons ago. What a non footballer, the Khedira version of the attackers.
Yea, how he is still at Bayern after last season and the world cup he had i dont know, he must have some dirt on Hoeness.
