Can't believe you ended up above us... Can't believe how awful we are EDIT: We're deciding to pay Kolo £80,000 a week for another year because he smiles a lot in training it seems
Liverpool fans get a gold star in my book for continuing to engage in enjoyable banter through a less than perfect period for their club. Me neither x 2. That or you keep comparing him to Lovren. Or you keep saying, well, he's one of the top players of recent times, African player of the year, he has to come good eventually.
It's probably a £12m deal, including his wages, signing fee, etc. Either that or we've been given a heads up on what the tribunal would value him at.
I've heard it as the money being the compensation any potential suitor would have to stump up if he moved as he is of a certain age.
I doubt that the compensation would be as high, but it would almost certainly include a wide variety of clauses. Sell-on percentage, international appearances, league appearances, goals, trophies... Maybe not the last one!
What's that based on? I'd heard there's a good chance it will be around £9mill if that's what you bid in January as that is considered good evidence of what he's worth.
Believe it's for training and development costs. But the club will obviously pay hidden fees to the agent, player himself and other costs for image stuff and so on like normal. Think we're all hoping he's a squad place swap for Aspas and Borini. Hopefully nothing more. Dubious about him but he should improve on those two wastes.
