This guy has a year left on his contract. So available on a free in 6 months time. Surely the €50M fee has to be rubbish?

That’s the release clause, hence why everyone is reporting it. I doubt anyone knows what fees are bring discussed. I’d be surprised if we paid £50m, for as you say he only has 12 months left. If we bid I reckon it’ll be a lower fee with a healthy sell on % clause.

Another year for us without him, while he increases his rep even more and has even more clubs circling? I'd rather get him now.

He may just re-sign in that case. Bilbao has done a lot for him and his family. And his brother plays there too. His mother recently got an award for contributions from. The club. I think it's more likely than not he re-signs rather thna leave on a free so bilbao get something for him.

Though perhaps a lesser fee might be negotiated it won't be less than 40 mil euros.

For €50M? When he's available for free in 6 months? Nah, mad. Especially for someone who seems mostly potential at the moment. Must be so many better options at that price where we aren't mostly buying potential.

If he does, he does. We'd be overpaying massively even at €40M in my opinion. Either negotiate a fee that's reasonable given the contract situation and his current level or walk.

He's a wonderkid. Why would you be happy to risk losing him to someone else?

This one? No idea who she is or what she knows?

 

 

That's the one. I take most ITK with a tablet of salt but there's a couple of low key ones that aren't banging on about all and sundry, just pop up with something that works out. Could be guesswork, but I find it fun.

I know this is only semantics but he’s only 20 so even if he’s out of contract next summer he can’t be signed on a free. It would go through the transfer compensation route. I know this won’t be huge but it might explain why getting him now and agreeing the fee may be a more straightforward scenario. Ignoring the fact he may have a storming start to next season and be looking at a CL level team when his contract runs out.

Let’s see what Unai thinks and Monchi can do we’re in good hands
