I don't blame Frenkie, but every player knew he fucked the next board over when signing these contracts with Barto (who else apart from Lenglet and Frenkie?). Same as Koeman who signed a contract well into the mandate of Barto's successor, talked big that he will leave without fuss if the next in line has different plans and then had the audacity to cry when Laporta axed him.
They just didn't defer wages, but Barto also improved their contracts. It's incredible. I am still pissed about this clown show.
Frenkie barely improved his contract.
It went from 14m a season to 15m in last two.
The loyalty bonuses etc are fairly standard.
Laporta did the same in his last stint and has done the same now with Lenglet really.
Lewas contract also.. goes up as declines.
If they could structure contracts the way it was done for FDJ better believe they would be trying that now.
The whole levers will impact decades of board after him.. as will Nike deal and other assets.
Bit rich of them to complain if do.
