Well as there’s no public record of transfer documents I doubt I can for sure - but it’s usually a % of the overall transfer fee as the norm. Can you provide even one example of your version?
This article suggests it’s the overall fee usually. Of course, it can be anything the clubs agree but...
Rarely is my take on it. I think it may be just another NSC myth on here. Like player swaps and release clauses.
Usually a sell on % is just that - a % of the next fee received.
Lots of stories appear once one big paper etc says it - ie the Spanish one. But all the same seems legit. I guess Romano is suggesting we don’t want to pay the whole lot up front like we’d need to on release clause…?
All looks like it’s going to happen though…
Exactly - so any leakage theory is rubbish unless the agents trying to see what else is out there £s wise. Likelihood is, given the huge amount of followers those Spanish press things have, it’s true and we’ve matched the release clause. Naylor and Owen won’t be told anything at this stage. So...
But surely if that’s the release clause it’s automatically accepted. They can’t say ‘we accept the 20mil from X but reject the 18mil euros from Y - a release clause is exactly that and that’s the price they’ll move for - it’ll all come down to the player…
I don’t get this Getafe end theory though - they don’t want to sell him. If there’s a release cause and we hit it why would they possibly want to drum up other interest as it’s just be down to the player. Also the agent - surely Cucu would’ve know about who’s interested for ages. Could be Owen &...
Surely BW2 should be banned from posting in any player transfer threads - that’s all 4 of the big ones totally derailed and bounced now and people think there’s news and there never is - it’s just him rambling on and arguing…!
I’m pretty damn sure it was the player himself that said it’s 18 in an interview then had to apologise - I didn’t watch the vid but it was on Twitter or somewhere. So I’m guessing no - the 30 mil thing is bollocks…
