You expect me to change my browsing style from clicking “next unread topic” and then spending the next 30 seconds figuring out what thread I’m in to “go to topic listing”? You sir, can do one.

That said, if we could shift Digne then we could cover Messi's wages twice over. I'm not sure even Emery would be able to loan out Digne for only a week in order to raise the money to pay Messi's salary for half a season. If we loan out Digne for longer than a month we can probably afford Harry Kane and Bruno Fernandez too (but then pack them both off to play in Egypt on loan) ... this would also dramatically reduce the number of penalties we concede each season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono62 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 I've heard he's using Digne's contract here as a bargaining tool for a mega salary in Saudi Arabia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of Digne, If we were to pay Messi £200k a week for two seasons that works out as £20.8m in wages over two seasons (based on a calender year of 52 weeks). There is no transfer fee involved as he is a free agent. It is not as unrealistic or impossible as many are trying to make out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steero113 Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Listen, I love fanny. But there's absolutely no chance I'm getting any any time soon. I also love Lionel Messi. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted June 1, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted June 1, 2023 Let's say this is even vaguely likely to happen. We all know if he signed for us Ben Mee would amputate his leg on the opening weekend fixture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumours abound that he has this gigantic wage packet. Way OTT. But rather like something else it's all just rumour and nobody really knows which is why posters keep taking the piss about how much he earns in various threads. It's become a metaphor for nonsense.
