I just can’t see this happening when both parties reported as recent as yesterday that he was close to a switch and had agreed to join the club to test himself in the premier league. there’s zero reports elsewhere about it and Neom are currently trying to sign another GK from Lyon for €20m
Nah it’s a weekly cap mate - just had a Quick Look and it’s £76 a week for all zones but that’s underground, overground, buses etc I think. There is a daily cap for those zones at £15.30 but I’m assuming if you live down there you’ll be using it every day for the weekly cap so say £300 a month. To me that sounds a lot but I know London has its pros and cons, cons obviously being the price of houses/living in general but I know a lot of folk live outside of London and travel in every day so they’re getting London salaries and cheaper property. Then council tax is much cheaper than ours which I still find incredible, £10m properties paying £600 a year council tax whilst I’m stung with £2.5k a year. Obviously the need for a car is a lot less if you’re more central. Defo not as cheap as New York travel by the looks of it but access to all trains and tubes for £76 a week probably isn’t that expensive especially if you don’t own a car it’s peanuts - most people probably spend north of £150 a month just on fuel to work never mind tax, insurance and the cost of the car on top.
PSG have just paid the full up front fee for Barcola to help them out too. The monopoly they have on French football is a joke
Good keeper and at OL since he was 9 years old. He’s been pretty public about how gutted he is with the way they have treated him. Would make sense for him to have a couple of years in Saudi. That said we have seen good young players moving for vast salaries so if the offer is there for Bulka you can’t blame him in one sense. Of course morally it’s not good and in terms of career it’s questionable.
Aye seen that. Then they had fee of Cherki as well. How the **** have they racked up half a billion debt though. They are known to pay mental wages like v Ligue 1 (bar PSG)
Was only a few hours after Alan Nixon, when fab posts stuff I tend to believe it but he's definitely not first to stuff all the time
The thing is there’s just like zero detail from the guardian it’s just “it is thought he’s agreed to join Neom”
Yeh we should know of the guardian is right or not in the next few hours. Fab will either come out and say discussions are still taking place or confirm it
Aye. I’m sticking with that. We’ve kind of ignored the Reineldo story in with this which looks a very savvy move
We’re all clear that the bulk of Romano’s ‘journalism’ is printing stuff on behalf of clubs and agents? Sometimes he’s paid to do so. Not saying it invalidates his information, just that there’s a caveat to how he works.
It would be massively disappointing. Was really excited at the prospect of him signing. Wonder who else we’d target. Clearly want a Patterson upgrade.
