Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

[Zidane82]

Five forwards should be enough.

I mean Real essentially has three

We are talking about regular, proven goalscorers though

 

[fergus90]

I hope we aren’t counting Ferran in that 5. That lads finishing is absolutely useless.

 

[Messi983]

Yesterday they were supposedly offering 22 + 5.
Anything around the 20m mark is acceptable imo.
For a 33 year old that was free a few months ago that is great business and given our registration issues we cant afford to be greedy.

Today is reported Chelsea's first offer is 15+5m.

If that 22+5 deal was true we'd already accept it imo.

Just gotta take the L, two desperate teams negotiating, no one wins in a negotiation generally speaking and especially under both teams current circumstances, just take the money and run, we have to register Kounde asap.

Need at least 20m upfront to register Kounde, that's what I think we're holding up to. No need to really accept their first offer if Tuchel is so desperate to get Auba and we can get more.

We are also desperate, so it removes all our leverage, if not we could cucurella them, but it 20m is what we truly need, then we can try holding out for that

 

[Messi983]

Well, Sport now says their last offer is 20m fixed. Who knows what's true though.

Make it 20+5 in some easy variables like number of played games and it's a deal.

Don't think that's the case.
Transfer fees cannot be applied against incoming wages to register.
Only outgoing wages can.
Auba is getting 18m gross this season? It might be marginally enough to register Kounde

Wrong.

 

[Porque]

Let's just get enough to register all players from Auba and call it a day - see if there is a last minute market opportunity for fullbacks.

It's clear that with a week left, we went big with the levers and slightly overplayed our hand a little with a failure to complete forecasted exits.. As usual with Barcelona, getting rid of players is a bitch. Hopefully the next half a decade changes that with lower wages, and less salary clogging for the elderly.

Exactly. 20mil and variables sound perfect.

 

[Birdy]

Wrong.

Source?

They are considered capital gains, and Tebas doesn't accept them.
Same thing happened with the capital gains accounted after the two TV rights sales to Sixth Street

 

[Raketa10]

Any news?

 

[Barcilliant]

I like Auba alot. Perfect back up. Has genuine quality. I can see why Xavi would want to keep him.

For sure. We have the best striker duo in the world right now.

 

[FCMessi]

Lewa's link up play much better
