Better deal for Juve, but screams of two clubs balancing the books lol

Swiss ramble posted a thread explaining why both clubs have chosen this construction. Didnāt really bother to read, because fuck barcelona.
Probably about the structuring of payments Iād imagine, if a club makes a sale they can claim to as generated revenue but they can stagger payments
Weāre letting a potential Auba replacement get away
There are rumours about Milik leaving and they are already busy by inviting his successor to Naples. I donāt know if Osimhen is going to be worth ā¬70 million, but the way they go about this situation is something Arsenal can learn fromā¦
Would be good to see Napoli sign Osimhen and Gabriel. Thatās an indication to me that theyāre going to cash in on Malik and Koulibaly this summer.
Could potentially be great business if they cash in on Koulibaly for Ā£70-100m and bring in a potential long term replacement for less than half the price.
Gabriel is somebody we should have been looking at last summer. Or now, if we need a CB.
D-D-D-D-DOUBLE SWOOP

Havenāt seen much of him but I read that heās very highly rated. How do you rate him?
2 years left on his dealā¦ Dortmund seeking Ā£100m+
Yeah apparently United wonāt pay more than Ā£50m for him. Good luck with that one.

lol no way they should take less than Ā£100m for him with his age and stats
Better off making him stay the last 2 years and getting the 20 goals and 20 assists every season
a crude attempt at gamesmanship, I think itāll get done around Ā£70m - Ā£80m.
I think the player will agitate for a move
Probably with add ons too
Why would you take 70-80m when Mbappe and Dembelle went for between 100m-150m

The impact of Covid on football coupled with the fact that player only has two years to go on his deal and I think he only ever viewed Dortmund as a stepping stone to a bigger platform, I canāt see him signing a new deal.
If you wanted maximum value surely now would be the best time to sell, as time moves on his value shrinks
He wonāt sign a new deal but every club in world football will be after him. Market rates will put him much higher than 70.
Although we donāt truly know how Covid will affect transfer rates. But still pre-covid I donāt think demanding 120-150m for a generational talent is outragous. 100m is a snip for a player of his ability. We spent 70m on Pepe and they spent 70m on Maguire

Canāt see any other top club going above Ā£80m in this climate tbh
Thereās no way they get Ā£100m next summer window either when top european clubs can sign him to a pre contact in January 2022

Why not though? Itās not like crowds have gone away for ever and transfer fees can be paid in deposits over 5 years if necessary. No reason a fee shouldnāt equal what the market will come back to in a seasons time.
If only 70m is on the table, Dortmund may aswell wait 12 months, when they should still get that or more. We got offered near 70m for a 29 year old Alexis
