Thanks, if I remember correctly GLC went for €5.00 million , plus €8.5 , for a player who rarely played for us but miraculous trotted out for Argentina with no problems
I think any sell on clause was valid for only a specified time, eg, 2 weeks from the opening of the transfer window. I read that any transfers to Atletico were going to occur after this period to avoid paying spurs anything. i could be wrong though because I read a lot of crap about Spurs!
The whole saga is bizarre! I guess Spurs were overly confident that he would sign immediately. https://cartilagefreecaptain.sbnati...-real-betis-atletico-madrid-avoid-sell-on-fee
I think that the simple answer is that they're wrong. Betis' President talked about the clause: “In short, if there is a transfer in which there is a capital gain for Betis, Tottenham would have a percentage of it. There is also a purchase option for them, but it would be high and positive for us if it were to happen.” There's just no way that Levy would accept a clause for part of a transfer window. He'd know that Betis would just agree to the sale and put it back a couple of weeks. No buying club would deny them that. It makes no sense.
