So wait Barca are going to get an absolute mess of money for Frenkie and they’re just not going to use part of that money to pay him what they owe him?

I wonder if he is just stalling over the money owed and wouldn't mind going, or actually really wants to stay. lol at the prospect of going to United being worse than playing for a club that tried to steal millions of euros from you

Presumably he prefers to be paid what he’s owned and then still get to gently caress off to a club that’ll pay him more money.

What's especially weird to me is obviously Barça is no stranger to splashing the cash or signing big names - but this many players in the span of a +/- year, quite a few of which are coming from other big clubs and on free transfers i.e. their wages are going to be astronomical. Like they clearly can't even pay De Jong or incredibly long-serving players/captain like Pique - how in the gently caress can they do with multiple international players? e: getting sucked into reading through Transmarkt and among many others, lol'ing at them paying €40M for a lightly used Paulinho who Spurs had paid €12M for 2 seasons earlier as part of the Gary Bale windfall sticksy fucked around with this message at 07:02 on Jul 16, 2022 |

Also lol @ them trying to strongarm Frenkie de Jong into leaving millions on the table with one hand and throwing the money at players that they presumably can't even register with the other. The whole thing just looks increasingly bizarre to me.

Aren't they basically buying on credit, and probably paying in instalments? Living like temporarily embarrassed billionaires, got to walk the walk so nobody will figure out they're totally broke.

So Barca's strikers are now a 33 year old, a 34 year old and a former Middlesbrough player? Not only are they spending money they don't have, they're not even spending it well
