Barca Transfers and Rumors

That doesnt make them anything alike as players though.

Coutinho has a brilliant final pass as well but wont be anything like Xavi.

Xavi was so all about dominating the ball and getting about pitch to get on it as much as possible. Messi wont/cant do that and plays a far more risky game.

Pretty much what i said.

From available players..i would probably gamble on Weigl.

BeIN sports is not that reliable anyway. I still don't think we will sign Coutinho. Dembele is possible, we just have to pay 100M if they still don't bulge make 90+30m. With 30M being ballon d'or bonus.

Yeah the Qataris are just taking the piss out of us on BeIN. NEVER trust the Qataris again.

I've been checking some Liverpool forums/twitter. A lot of them are adamant that this transfer is impossible.

I'm curious. What does it mean for a player to have no release clause in his contract with a club? Does it mean as long as his contract time is not over yet he can ONLY be transferred to another club ONLY when his owner club accept the offer? So confusing!

That is exactly what it means. A release clause is essentially an amount for which the players contract can be terminated.

Help me out here , Dembele was transferred to BvB only a year ago at 15m€ and in his only year at Bundesliga, he scored 6 goals in 32 appearances. Why is valued at 100m€ ? Have football players become stock market assets now, valued arbitrarily by speculations ?

And whatever happened to our scout teams ? We used to get solid promising players at low price from various leagues - now we just wait till another club takes the risk and if the player succeeds we proceed to bid ridiculous amount of money !!

He was undervalued at the time. Yes, transfer prices are speculations. The market has changed. Considerably.

The 15m euros they paid is almost unfathomable. Very strange indeed. He should have gone for a far higher fee. I think I read a story about some questionable aspects of that deal.

He dominated Bundesliga in his first season. Kicker ranked him as the second best outfield player in the league not playing for Bayern.

Its been a long time since we regularly signed players who increased in value after joining us.

Umtiti and a lot of players due to inflation of the market. Still we are a step behind every time. Dybala would swim to Barca at 40m, Eriksen was offered to us for 15m, hell even matthieu could have been bought at half the money a year before.
Signing young talented players and occasional stars is a perfect mix which we should be having.

"Through Raul Sanllehí , Barça have already started negotiations with Dortmund, who has moved the first bid for the French striker, and plans to travel to Germany shortly. It has a great advantage in favor: the player's will, which should end up weighing and with the player there is already agreement."

If Sanllehi will go to Germany that's a good news.

Dembele, Coutinho and a central midfielder...we could be stronger than before, of course If they turn out fine not like Arda. Haven't watched them enough, only Coutinho a bit, he looks good to me. For that position my first pick would be Hazzard but he's probably impossible to sign.

How comes Sergi Roberto's release clause is just 40m
If this guy did not find a place in starting 11 or at least good rotation he will leave very easily next season (if not this one)
