    Unless he magically represents Camavinga, in this financial climate that won't be happening.

    On that note if there ever was a time to introduce regulations for agent fees and revenue generation... it's now.

    It’ll be 4 times that value, at the very minimum.

    We can’t sign every single young promising player in the world and we can’t predict which one will immediately explode on the scene months later.

    I am not quite sure, but i think there has to be a reason why we didn't go the way of an ERTE despite it being so beneficial to the club financially on the surface level, i wonder how it limits your spending and financial flexibility in short/long term.

    Usually the club that apply for financial assistance aren't in the market for big transfers, they are int he business of selling off whatever they've got.

    Also since the ERTE is for the duration of the crisis, the measures could last well into a possible transfer window making the team highly irritable to transfer rumors and new guys coming in at full pay.

    It would be nice though. Imagine getting Mbappe for 40M, while PSG worked 180M+. :laugh:

    For the £17m or whatever it was, we could not go wrong with Haaland. Would have been a good move to buy him and loan him out for a season or two now we're link to him not even half a season later but for 5x the price.

    The club didn't want to deal with Raiola.

    This is speculation.. not fact. According to Raiola he has an open line to the club and a personal relationship with one of our most important decision makers.

    I have heard more transfers in and out for Madrid in the last 3 weeks than what was the historic 2009 summer.

    Raiola has an open line to God if you ask him.

    There’s no way Alaba comes to us and we don’t need him, but with the emergence of Alphonso Davies who extended his contract today, has Alaba become expendable for Bayern?

    If Alaba wants to continue playing CB and can maintain the level he has shown this season at that position, he could be perfect Ramos replacement. He's only 27 and has tons of experience at the highest level. Contract ending at 2021 would mean we could get him at a good price ala Kroos in 2014.

    Why would the club respond specifically to that? Has the club ever done that?

    Why would he publicly lie about his personal relationship with a high ranking club member?

    He was asked directly and responded directly and you want to disregard. Yet you have no direct quotes from the club, only sourced from obvious liars and invetors from Marca and AS who are proven to know nothing about what is going on...

    Yet you choose to believe them.

    Let's be real here.

    Florentino bought Mbappe, VdB, Neymar and Pogba last summer if you ask Marca or AS.

    Didn't Haaland go to Dortmund in no small part because he was likely to get more playing time there than he might've gotten at some of the other clubs on his radar?

    It works for Raiola as well. He pockets agent fees for for both Salzburg -> Dortmund and will pocket some more when Haaland transfers again in the near future. Better that than the straight Salzburg -> Real Madrid one-time fee he would've gotten.

    He has a history of running his mouth. Forgive me for giving him any credit. :rolleyes:

    If I believe everything Marca and AS publish shouldn't I believe all Raiola's clients are coming to Madrid already? I mean they publish that shit too.

    He wants to stay in Munich, and i don't for a second believe that he wants to play as a CB.

    There are rumours that somebody leakes the Bayern wagelist and some of the more experienced players like Neuer and Alaba are way below the fresh faces which is why this thing has been going on all that time.

    its possible if he can play 2 positions and don't cost too much as he has only one year left on his contact.

    Marca and AS have a history of knowing nothing the past couple of years and just outright inventing stories and telling lies.

    So why believe a story with no actual source just because you have a personal dislike for the guy?
