For all the hype, that seems like a low fee. Was there a buyout clause?

I think when Dortmund bought him there was some steadily descending release clause attached to it, and he’s been with them a few years now.

Salahs signed a new deal

Didn't he literally just say he would stay at Liverpool and run down his contract?

E: Looking at the BBC article, that's sort of it I guess

quote:

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah says he will be at Anfield next season "for sure" but would not be drawn over whether he will sign a new contract. Salah's deal ends in June 2023, leading to speculation he could be sold if he did not sign a new one as he would leave on a free in a year's time.

Most of the credible transfer chat has been about players out.

I'm guessing there was a big "we might be in the championship" elephant in the room in the way of incoming chat until very recently.

What I've seen from United fans is that he's past it and they don't want any more Chelsailures, but for me he's only 31 and if he's available for sensible money I'd take him even just for depth

although tbh I'd sign Karl Henry at this point for the sake of having a loving midfield

I'd take him in a heartbeat if not for his recent injury record. But if Tuchel is letting him go, that's a giant red flag.

Really? I thought he was good and getting better. They need all the younger players that are still on an upward trajectory that they can get.

Barcelona's finances are ultrafucked. They need to sell a player for good money if they ever hope to register anyone this window, and there's only a few players with real market value. Frenkie De Jong and a bunch of La Masia kids. If the board tried to sell Gavi, Pedri or Fati they would get lynched in the streets.

Are Barca still in that 4:1 revenue:spend penalty box for FFP debtors?

3:1 according to the La Liga president

[Tebas] Barca is a money-making machine. Of course they can get out of this situation, they know what they have to do. They are under the 1:3 rule for now. For every €100m sales that they make, they can use €33m. But if they make profits of €500m then they’ll be able to sign normally at 1:1 (sport.es)

Liverpools transfer strategy has involved “played great against us” for years. All of the data/recruitment expert stuff in the news is mostly cover for it.

It works so maybe other teams should try.

That's how/why Man Utd signed a kid named Ronaldo who was supposed to sign for Arsenal. Not sure how it ended up working out.
