all football clubs have always been a going concern; and so it is a business, would you rather it made a loss?

Ah you wound me! My post was a dig at those that complain about football being too corporate and businesslike. It astounds me that people think an entity where people are paid tens to hundreds of thousand pounds PER WEEK, should be run in any way other than as a serious business. Some people see the word corporate, but I prefer the word professional. Non-league clubs can be run like 'proper old school football' clubs, by a few mates taking subs off the players. But if you are in the professional league you need to run the club appropriately. Some are obviously more successful than others.
I think you may have quoted the wrong person there.

too late i get it....
No worries, I agree with you.
Interesting (to me anyway) that two of the posters who have got things completely wrong on this thread (and have then disappeared when their errors of fact have been pointed out) also like to weigh in about politics a lot (and then disappear when their errors of fact are pointed out).
I see a pattern! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Alexis Mac Allister is a new player from Boca
El Boca by Gustavo Alfaro closed its first reinforcement ahead of the 2019/20 season, it is Alexis Mac Allister , playmaker who comes from Argentinos Juniors, and signed a one year loan, in a negotiation that validated the Brighton, club of the Premier League owner of his pass, who agreed to the operation.
In this way, the Xeneize achieves its first reinforcement in the hooking position, place in which Mac Allister managed to stand out during the last two seasons in Argentinos, and that now will have the opportunity to do it in Boca, team that will face the eighths of the Libertadores and the start of the Superliga 19/20 in the second semester, in addition to the Copa Argentina.
Boca then stays with who until today, was the difficult figurine of the market, since both Students, as San Lorenzo and Independent, wanted it and had advanced in the possible loan. Red was the one who was closest to "steal" Boca, after the meeting that Sebastian Beccacece had with the player days ago, trying to convince him to opt to go to Independiente.
As revealed to the player, the fact that Gustavo Alfaro, the team's coach, called him on the phone to express his interest, was decisive for the 22-year-old to end up deciding for Boca, a club where he was 20 years ago. after playing his father, Carlos, remembered side of the 90s.

Write it off as a money making bit of business and forget the football side
So did we make a profit then? Hey ho - I'd rather we'd bought a player for our first team.

Me too but it seems to be the way top clubs operate and presumably we are trying to emulate them.
It’s a years loan so we haven’t cashed in yet?
The fact Boca want him at least means he is progressing well, which is good. It also increases his chances of an international call up, which again will help us (eventually).

Will he play for their senior squad, or will it be "Boca Juniors", which I assume must be their Under 23s...?

No, their under-23s would be Boca Juniors Juniors.

Well twitter is now babbling that Spartak Moscow have bid €20 million for him.
And the deal might involve a swap for Ze Luis ( see NSC thread from a transfer window past ).
Whatever. He's not playing for us next year.

Really!? How much have we made? I make it a Euro 10M loss plus any proportion of his wages we are paying so far. Great business by the Albion there [emoji106][emoji41]
