Not in the loan deal, but still a potential transfer should Real madrid agree to sell. It depends on lots of factors, if Ceballos has a good season at Arsenal and settles in London he could decide that he wants to stay. We all know that Real will spend a **** ton of cash between now and then too, and may well just buy another player in his position anyway. A similar thing happened with Kovacic at Chelsea. He was loaned from Real without an option to buy, but then Chelsea bought him the following summer anyway.
By that logic every team in the world has an option to buy him. As I said before, you're putting yourselves in a poor position and the deal is extremely one-sided. Your manager has agreed to play him a lot and if it works out well, then his value inflates dramatically. If it doesn't work, then you've wasted a year training up a Real Madrid player.
As with Kovacic, Real have agreed to discuss a transfer with us next summer. So if he has a good season, we potentially get the option to buy him, if he doesn't we send him back. Obviously an option to buy in the loan deal would have been preferable. But this deal suits us, we need MF reinforcements and we don't have to lay out any transfer money this summer.
And Chelsea got ****ed on the Kovacic fee, but they don't care because they can afford it and they can't sign anyone else. You can't afford it. You've agreed to a **** deal that Spurs wouldn't and you're claiming it as a victory.
Calm down. I said it was a decent deal for us as we get MF reinforcement and we don't have to pay any transfer deal this summer.
Madrid basically saying if he’s **** you can have him for £25m but if he’s any good then it’s £60m. What a win for Arsenal, gutted we’ve not pulled that off
wtf ? I said it's a deal that suits us because we need a midfielder and we don't have to pay out a transfer fee.
Reports saying we are favourites to sign Dennis Praet, another Belgian midfielder, from Sampdoria ... straight fight between us and AC Milan coz the Goons have now dropped out coz them ain't got no money
Im not sure if it was. I read somewhere embargo stops us registering players not buying players. **** knows how that worked with pulisic? Didnt barca buy a load of players when they were embargoed but couldnt sign then up? (Think it was vidal the right back and turan)
Pulisic was already your player before you were banned from making signings. Kovacic was registered as a Chelsea player so you could extend his stay by activating a buy-out clause.
