If someone gave me a 170 million offer on Neymar, I'd probably take the money and wreck the fax machine afterwards. He's good, but I'm not sure at all if he's 170 million good, especially when unsettled and prone to injuries.

I guess finding the reinvestement targets can be tricky this late into the window though.

I doubt he even is that good to justify this at all.
And he might even bring instability in an existing squad with his behaviour.

I dont understand all that PSG Neymar thing.
If half the offers I read for him are real I dont know which is more stupid: Real/Barca for offering them or PSG for declining them...

The most ridicilous I read was: Bale, Navas, James and 100k cash. Wtf Id take that in a heartbeat

I hope that the retard of Bartomeu stop trying to sign Neymar. The club doesn't need him and they are already in a bad finantial shape.

I think that was 100M and not 100k but I get your point.

I think Barça or Real are mostly thinking they can make him play to its old self again and mainly that he will sell a lot in shirts and ads. Otherwise it is a very dumb move for someone who devaluated a lot in a couple of years.

Yeah, it feels like the whole thing is mostly about Barca wanting to keep their Brazilian market running. They lost Neymar, went for Coutinho and when that didn't work out, we are back to Neymar again. There's probably big money involved in all that, but it all makes them look a bit awkward from footballing perspective.

Barcelona offer PSG Neymar loan (1 year) + obligation to buy for 150m euros and Dembele.




(MARCA) 🚨 Neymar talked with Leonardo this Monday, and he stated that he only wants to go to Barcelona.

What a fucky situation

- Neymar wants out of PSG but has 3 or 4 years of contract left.
- PSG would be okay with him leaving but want to recoup as much as possible from the massive fee
- Barca will take him but definitely not anywhere near the original fee

Unlikely that they will find a middle ground with that, however considering that Neymar not been in squad so far I can totally see him being unhappy and trying to force a January move.


It also looks like both Bury and Bolton are done and gone, at least in case of bury apparently because the owner refuses to sell the stadium with the team, because its prime real estate.


And Rosenborg need to score 3 in 15 minutes, so that dream seems dead too

That's how I interpret it. Still better than paying 12 million for almost the same thing. It's probably also way better for the atmosphere in the locker room and training if your highest earner isn't there just to keep the salary running.

imo if were gonna loan sanchez out only to have to may the majority of his wages anyway, id rather keep him in the squad and make him play. i mean, how much worse could he be than lingard even when he plays at his worst. his best is incomparable and there is still the possibility that he regains some form

Utd fans doesn't seem to happy about Sanchez deal, which I can understand. I think that it is the best option available to the club though. At this point Utd is saving 5m in whatever currency and getting Sanchez out of the way. Sure, they are looking thin up front but it looked like Ole wouldn't play Sanchez no matter what anyway.

If Sanchez do good in Inter, which I'm certainly not convinced of, they will have probably have more options on what to do with Sanchez next year. And if he doesn't do well they didn't miss out on anything by not keeping him in Manchester.

It's a bit funny how Ajax had to go through the qualification rounds, but are now seeded in pot 2, above many very formiddable and directly qualified teams.
