Five years haha. I'm happy with the transfer but the buy back grates me

Supposedly there are two clauses - buy-back and pre-emption. I don’t really understand how both can exist together except in the way I laid out. Of course, I am probably missing something.
Sometimes the buy back clause is time limited. Heard something about 35m next year, 40m in two years. Maybe first refusal the next 3?This is what I mentioned earlier - how can you have both pre-emotion and buy back? It doesn’t make sense to me.
It would benefit both clubs
When they want probably hence why we got him and United ran offI wonder what the buy back clause looks like outside of the amount. When/how can they exercise it, etc...
I look forward to seeing Dele showing us how to cook a fine paella on his new reality show.Yeah that's what I was thinking.
Madrid gets something that can actually help them in addition to money for Bale, which is a coup for them, and on cheap wages by their standards.
Spurs get Bale, and give Dele a year abroad in a pressure environment to hopefully grow the fuck up.
Will Dele say yes?
Levy will use inspired fine printSometimes the buy back clause is time limited. Heard something about 35m next year, 40m in two years. Maybe first refusal the next 3?
If both exist, I’d imagine the buy-back expires at some point during the deal. The pre-emption exists primarily to give RM some option after the buy-back clause expiry.
Buy back is a minimum to activate clause but they hold right of first refusal for anything above that depending on the year, timing, etc...This is what I mentioned earlier - how can you have both pre-emotion and buy back? It doesn’t make sense to me.

I think Jose likes Dele a lot it's just he has become frustrated as the rest of us have at Dele's decline
Bale is from Wales!
