Why has he had a medical then?

Going in circles here.

Why would any company inspect the product of another before buying? Same exists if you're only putting a down payment down or an option to buy.

We wouldn't throw away £3mill if he had a faulty ticker.


Theoretically, giving them 10p as a premium is beneficial to both. 3m is chump change as a premium and they'd be better off hawking him around for more than that as a premium. They could get a lot more from other clubs

Again, going in circles. They don't want to sell. They want to keep him. They're resigned to losing him next summer anyway when release clause kicks in. They're not going to get more than his release clause next summer. Noone is going to pay more.

As far as they're concerned it doesn't matter which foreign team signs him. If we put down £3 mill as option to buy him first that's £3 mill more than they would get next summer. It's essentially free money to them. Why would they refuse (unless someone offered more)?

For all intents and purposes, barring something catastrophic, he will be a Liverpool player, but not before July.


We don't know what went on in the board rooms or the particulars of the contract we can only assume the most logical thing happened.

Except that they could get even more selling him to whoever is happy to pay a bigger premium.

The fact its happened so fast with no hiccups suggest its more an obligation than a true option as you guys are keen to get it over the line before any of the big clubs come sniffing around in this inflated market (hence you were more than happy to spend 70m)
 
Ah ****!

Those batards following him were posting to twitter and not paying attention to the road.

He's going to fail the medical now.

They don't want to sell, why would a poxy £3m convince them to agree to a definitive activation of his release clause, when they could spend the full year trying to convince him to stay with their 'project'?

You've paid that money as a sweetener to allow the clause to be triggered in essence now.

Truth is Bobby, nobody f#cking knows and we're all assuming. I'm sure, once the madness of the next 2 days is over, everything will be clearer.

He's already had a major bust up with them at the club.

He's not staying.
 
And who is that? Who has offered more?

Point is, a poxy 3m for an un-obligated contract is not value at all when they could fetch far more.

Anyway just read the actual transfer on skysports and BBC, it's pretty clear you've signed him for next year irrespective of what happens to him this year. So it's not an option, just a forward contract. Case close. Next

Keita completed a medical on Monday and will officially join Liverpool on July 1 next year. The fee will also surpass the £39.5m paid to Roma for Mohamed Salah this summer
 
THAT is very racist. Some of your best friends are latin american? ;)

Che Guevara, Pele and Socrates. Maybe that bird off Modern Family, and Miss Venezuela always rocked when Miss World was still allowed. And perhaps Lucas. The rest you wouldn't trust as far as you could kick them.
 
Liverpool and Swansea City are locked in a bruising battle to secure the loan signing of Bayern Munich wonderkid Renato Sanches, according to various reports.

Bild has claimed that Jurgen Klopp's Reds are the favourites to land the midfielder before Thursday's transfer deadline day, but they face serious competition for the most unlikely of sources in Paul Clement's Swans.

Indeed, Wales Online have reported that the Liberty Stadium-based club have enquired about Sanches and could pull off one of the biggest shocks of the summer window if they manage to beat Liverpool to the punch

Sky just had a reporter from Germany reckoning the Keita fee £60+ m which is more like what i assumed the premium would be. More worryingly he thought that the deal has to be concluded even if Keita gets badly injured which is seriously worrying.

Big assumption that. If it's the case, I do hope Liverpool have taken out insurance.
