Messi didn't get a signing fee for joining PSG. The corruption is just blatant. If you let crooks into the game, then they're going to bring their criminality with them.
Is this suggesting that we are gonna sell for £30m less and in return they will ensure we get a stadium sponsor paying well over the odds? If so the only answer is to tell them where to go and report them to UEFa, The Premier League, The FA, the old bill, the UN, Magnum PI and Miss Marple.
Not according to PSG and his representatives. €41m per season, plus a bunch of bonuses, including some weird cryptocurrency, apparently. He'll end up being paid to be an ambassador for Qatar, like Neymar. $300m or something.
to force or coerce into a particular action, statement, etc.: The strikers claimed they were blackmailed into signing the new contract.
Hate to say this but he looks to have aged badly in the last year. I worry there is a serious illness there.
Force and coerce both require an unwilling participant. They're not doing either by offering us money via an alternative, if extremely dubious, arrangement.
I wouldn’t believe anything from those ITK Hub tweets. They even list the source as tier 5, so not are they likely chatting **** anyway, they’re at a tier where they've likely never even proven anything or never mentioned info before, thus likely being no different to anyone of us making up something and claiming it as ITK.
Yes, but Malaria after effects clear up quite quickly if treated properly. Usually looking at weeks, not months.
Considering the drop in revenue of the past eighteen months due to the lack of NFL games and concerts, which isn't being covered by naming rights, there's some definite coercion going on there "Give us what we want, and we'll make your money problems go away. But if you don't..."
He didn't realise what it was for quite a while, though: https://www.skysports.com/football/...ia-scare-and-opens-up-on-his-difficult-season Definitely hasn't looked the same player since and he just looks ill, to me.
First of all, for some reason I can't find the posts where I go into what Der Spiegel and Football Leaks have reported about The Sheikh Mansour Team's dodgy finances (even by football standards) which looks like a mod removed them which is...dubious as ****. So here's a Grauniad article covering all of it, just to see if this also mysteriously vanishes from the site: https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...er-city-ban-from-champions-league-europe-uefa Secondly, in relation to the first, always remember that The Sheikh Mansour Team are the team whose lawyer emailed UEFA and said about their chairman “He would rather spend 30 million on the 50 best lawyers in the world to sue you for the next 10 years” rather than follow UEFA's FFP guidelines. Also, this same lawyer, Simon Cliff, also said in an email in response to the death of one of UEFA's investigative chamber with the quote “1 down, 6 to go.” Guidelines which didn't like situations such as... - Director Simon Pearce "forwarding" Etihad £91 of the £99m sponsorship fee - Of the quoted £65m fee Etihad paid to sponsor the club in 2013-14, £57m of it was paid by the owners - Of the quoted £67.5m fee Etihad paid to sponsor the club in 2015-16, £59.5m of it was paid by the owners - For their shirt sponsorship in 2011-12, of the quoted £12m fee £8m was paid by the owners - Claim they paid £32m for Eliaquim Mangala, when in actuality they paid £42m So it's not unbelievable to think they'd stoop to that sort of bullshit, as it's completely in character for them
