Seems to me that Inter fleeced everyone involved. First they unload an injury plagued and unsettled player who was leaving after the season for NOTHING anyway for 47 million euros (is one season worth THAT much Real?!?!?) and then turn around and grab Crespo, a player who is one year removed from the Serie A scoring title with 26 goals, for only 26 million euros. Then consider they used the remaining 21 million euros to get Canavarro and I fail to see a team that handled itself better around the transfer window. They convinced Real to bid against themselves (again) and kept their budget while getting two dominant players of Serie A in Canavaro and Crespo.
1) Ronaldo was signed up to 2005 2) if he does not sustain further major injuries,he's worth twice the € 45 millions or so Real will pay 3) Crespo comes for € 26 millions + Corradi,whom Inter bought for € 10 milllions only 1 month ago considering the circumstances and the little money available in europe right now though,Inter fared pretty well: with Crespo in their ranks they can afford not to bother what Ronaldo does in Madrid
I'm beginning to doubt everything I read in this Tribal Football site. On several occassions I've seen this site include details not to be found in any other news article. Can someone find this detail anywhere else? Preferably NOT an internet site in Australia? I seriously doubt Inter would make such a deal.
the rumors come from Spain and have been given a lot of attention by italian media; there has been no official confirmation of the clause,but also no denial,which makes me wonder
My husband said he heard rumor this on La Domenica Sportiva. I can't believe Inter would agree to a deal such as that.
Well I guess this is sort of confirmation http://www.planetfootball.com/artic...id=21&title=Ronaldo+pomp+fails+to+hide+cracks Of course this leaves much up for interpretation. Is this six months consecutively? What about if there is a serious of nagging small injuries? What if the injury is unrelated to previous knee problems? I have a feeling we'll be talking about this one even a year from now.
of course,it's implicit in my reply that what's been reported about the terms of the agreement is true
