theboyangel Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Don't get the talk of going to China. Why wouldn't the Chinese team have just negotiated with us instead of waiting until he signed for Fiorentina? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't someone mentioned that Fiorentina had an option if he played so many appearances for them? Assume if.this is true that Fiorentina had first choice to sign him, got wind of the China interest and went for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was an automatic "if he played so many games" they had to sign him so he must transfer automatically at start of Italian window. Might be because of the Chinese interest that fiorentina haven't formally announced - would be a bit weird to announce a new player only to see a week later... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking perhaps the Chinese season runs at a different time, so the cut off dates don't overlap or something.. but I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MikeMcKenna Posted August 20, 2017 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2017 Right now I am at San Siro watching Inter v Fiorentina who have Sanchez at No.8. He is much better than I remember and doing ok. Inter winning 2-0 Their No 9 Icardi who scored both is a great player Hell of atmosphere! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year our parachute payments trickle away to virtually nothing. We will still have some players on very big contracts. If we are within rules already and don't need to register the income now this income may help us keep in line next year assuming we don't get promoted.

HanoiVillan Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Italian football clearly suits him, English football doesn't. He isn't the first for that, and he won't be the last either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted August 21, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2017 Wait. Just realised this is still in Villatalk what exactly is his Status with us? Does anyone for 100% know if he's no longer a Villa player? Weirdest player departure ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
