Haha, the Markovic one is Benfica fault though, they put that release clause in as i read today that is the release clause €25 million for him.
The rest im not sure about xD

And oo yeah i saw their signings of the Japanese one and the guy from Istanbul B or something haha.

He did, but did you see Luiz's freekicks for Chelsea this season? He must of had around 30 in the same or CLOSER area than the one he scored yesterday and put it into Row Z of the stadium EVERY time. He couldn't hit the target all season with freekicks and shots, then he finally did one for Brazil


The release clause for Markovic is 40M€ as was the release clause for Matic. But I guess that Benfica is desperate for money. I don't know why, because we will get the 12,5M we get from Markovic (we only have 50%) and just buy 5 3M brazilian youngsters who will never do anything in footbal... F*CK this! Why can't we hold a winning team? :|

He was 50% owned by a fund apparently, and with supposed preference clauses with Chelsea, so who knows what actually went down in the decision making process. Not to mention that Benfica is 450M€ in debt, having to pay some 20-30M€ a year in interest. With Portugal being a small and poor country, thus having relatively small TV and marketing revenue, we're forever destined to be a 2nd/3rd tier club. :'( But hey, on the bright side, at least we're not Sporting.

Roma signed Fenerbahce's 20 years old midfielder Salih Ucan for two years loan which costs 4.750.000 million euros, Roma have option to buy him in end of two years for 11 million euros. He basically cost 15 million euros.



Ucan is going to be big like Turan.

How is Benfica in so much debt when they've sold so many players and have been winning?

Built a Stadium and invested in infrastructure in 2003. Buys lots of players for every 25M€ sale. Low revenues (TV used to be 7.5M€/season) didn't make up for operational costs.

Jan Oblak set to join Atletico Madrid... probably for €20M. Spanish sources claim he's already passed the medical.

That's amazing news for Atletico Madrid.

Oblak was fantastic in this EL season.

Haha i have no preference indeed. I always follow the top 3 clubs though. I had a friend who was a Benfica fan i worked with when i was a manager in KFC. We always talked football and played in KFC team we made.
I also invited him round for the final xD

So i guess i know more about Benfica than i do Porto and Sporting. But Chelsea have played Porto more and taken their best asset in Jose Mourinho so i guess they could draw more of me to them. But then again Sporting gave us Ronaldo so......oh gosh
Looks like im on the fence

He was the heart of both attack and defense

So Bayern is buying a left wing / left back for 10 million (Juan Bernat). Why exacly is Luke Shaw 20 million € more expensive ?

Great transfer in my opinion, left defender was the last weak spot in the roster in my opinion.


Now Bayern can play Lahm AND Alaba in central midfield!

I think Arsenal might have signed a couple guys already. But they're waiting until the 10th to announce it. That's when the new Puma kits are officially unveiled.
