fastest-selling is not the same as best-selling but still weird yeah

google auto translate posted:

Ajax always measures the first week what a player’s shirt sales do after he has been attracted. According to the club, Henderson’s shirt is the fastest-selling shirt ever. He wins with ease from Dusan Tadic and Daley Blind. Henderson’s shirt was sold more often within 24 hours than that of Tadic and Blind in a week.

Precise numbers are never mentioned, but Ajax says that this is already the fastest selling shirt of a player. Henderson's just not gonna beat the Marleyshirt sales. Within 24 hours, he went even faster. Boss over boss, right?

[...]

Online sales are like a madman. Not just in the Netherlands. The Ajax shirt with Henderson on it is now also eagerly in the retraction within Asia. The reason for this may be that Liverpool has always invested heavily in the countries there. As captain of The Reds, Henderson's shirt was sold there a lot anyway.

quote:

Jordan Henderson says his move to Ajax is a "football decision", adding "sometimes these things don't work" of his time in the Saudi Pro League.

Henderson only joined Al-Ettifaq in July but had his contract cancelled so he could join the Dutch giants.

He also reiterated his apology to members of the LGBT+ community upset at his move to Saudi Arabia, where same-sex sexual activity is illegal.

"My beliefs haven't changed and they never will," said the midfielder.

"I said six months ago that if I offended anyone or if people feel like I let them down then I apologise for that and I'll apologise again.

"I haven't changed as a person, I never have."

Nice of him to admit that he's always been an unthinking shill, going whichever way gets him the most affection or money and never learning anything

quote:

Despite his short stay, the former Sunderland trainee would not criticise the league and said he would not advise players against going.

"I think a lot of people would like me to sit here and criticise the Saudi thing and everything that went with that but that certainly wasn't the case and not something that I'm doing to do," he said.

"I've got full respect for the league and Al-Ettifaq the club and the people over there. They really made me feel welcome. Unfortunately sometimes these things in life just don't work out, in football and life in general.

"If you look at big players that are there and loving every second of it and staying there for a long time. You might get players who don't settle and don't stay for a long time, or whatever it might be, things can change quickly.

"I would definitely not sit here and speak badly of the league, the clubs or anything like that."

Lost in the Hendo chat, Perisic is going back home to Hajduk Split first on loan and the probably permanently when his contract runs out in the summer. Sad about his injury but what a pro. Glad he played for us.

Just ban sales between clubs owned by the same people. If the deal is for a fair market value someone else will come in for them.

Guardian is saying £30mm. Even if that is inflating miggy's value, I'm not confident we can replace him for that, let alone improve the squad. I also have no idea how ffp works. Does selling him for more than we paid get us extra brownie points or something?

Can a Newcastle fan explain if they have an up and coming Almiron replacement in the squad that would make it worth selling him for a relatively small sum?
