Barca done little wrong though. Its more on Bordeaux side? If offer was accepted and barca came in with better offer, Bordeaux should still allow Roma to proceed, but they blocked Roma's talks with the player and demanded them to match barca offer, despite already accepting to previous offer...

Of course it's said that no paperwork was finalized to indicate the acceptance..

Barca or Bordeaux?

If Barca, then on what grounds? Maybe Barca secretly convince Malcom to break the deal and lure him with the sweet nectar of Champions League?

I doubt they have grounds for suing anyone .. agreements in principal mean nothing until Pen is put to paper..

Das tuff Roma, If I was Roma I'd be mad though, business is business I suppose.. seems like a bit of a despo move on Barca's side aswell.

You'd think after all these years they had the transaction figured out clearly. You don't announce anything until the papers are signed and once those are signed, it's a done deal. Apparently it's not that straightforward.

I think you'd find that a lot of business deals (this being one of them) are often done based on good faith that both parties would honour the terms. I think this deal was initially all fun and games until Barca realised they couldn't take their prom queen to the big dance, freaked out and went after the next best thing. Obviously the idea of playing for one of the most successful clubs in the world, and likely shitload more money were attractive enough for both Malcom and Bordeaux to renege on the deal.

While I do feel for Roma, but at the end of the day, business is business and it's not over until the fat lady sings...

I could see it happening elsewhere, but football player trading is one of the places where I'd try to have my guard up at all times. There's some drama going on every window.

Both Roma and Bordeaux announced the Roma deal, that was the only reason why Roma tweeted about that at all.
I used to organize tournaments for ESL Italy and referee Go4SC2s, WCSs, and IEMs for ESL SC2.

I'll raise you our official tweet. It says specifically he is backup to Tibo and Willy. I read into that, Chelsea telling everyone Tibo going no where. When we signed Eduardo for our 3rd choice keeper last two years they never mentioned him being back up to our keepers so....i think that is Chelsea saying Tibo is staying btw.

It's €35 million right now rumored to be, if he goes free next year might look bad, but we also might somehow get to keep him. We still have 200k offer on table for example.
