Despite a promotion clause in his contract, right wing player Kiko Femenia (22) will continue with the B-team this season.[rac1]

Roures (image rights holder Thiago): "Besides from Bayern, there were offers for Thiago from Manchester United and a Spanish club." [rac1]

Part of Thiago's 25M transfer fee are incentives based on objectives reached, for example when Bayern wins the Champions League. [bild]

Man United are interested in Barcelona player Cesc, who could be available for 39.5M, although Arsenal have a 29M first option [independent]

What? So if he ever went back to Arsenal it would be just for 29 mil?

Apparently it depends on Cesc saying he wants to return to Arsenal.

Yes, they have first refusal/set buy back price.

And those idiots couldn't have bid when Thiago was still here

If Arsenal want to make a hostile bid they'd have to pay whatever Barca wanted. If Barca choose to sell Cesc, then Arsenal have a 29M first option.

Calenda (agent Marquinhos): "The club told us he could leave. There are offers from PSG, Man United and Barcelona." [sky via md]

What difference would it make? It's clear to me who Tito prefers, and that is Cesc. He'd never let him go.

Koscielny is good, the best defender in the EPL last season by a mile. I would gladly take him.

Koscielny was no better than Bartra was at the same age. It's only in the last season or two, that Koscielny has kicked-on. Still... the standard of defending in the EPL last season left a lot to be desired.

SkySports: £25m bid confirmed for Cesc. According to the club, the bid is well below their valuation.

No shit Sherlock

WTF's going on? After just losing Thiago, we're seriously not going to out another one of our midfielders.

But knowing this man who knows? Money talks.

 

[AvocadoCake]

I doubt the buyback is 29m, no club in their right mind (and while we might not be, we're not THAT stupid) will place a buyout clause lower than the original transfer fee. Maybe it's there, but it wouldn't be clear cut.

 

[Semi-Neutral]

Anyone know Cesc's buyout clause?

Sure... But

Nah, not going to happen. The only 1st team player that could leave is Alexis, but even him is staying. I'm not counting jds as he's in some sort of limbo...

Valbuena, WTF am I reading?
