Now that is some fucking transfer window by anybody's standards :coys: :coys:
Agreed but does this show that either Levy trusts Jose more than Poch or that Poch didn't know or ask for players that would make a difference.
Certainly beats no-one coming in like 2 years ago!!
 
In that scenario Reguillon would have to agree to join the secondary buying club...

He's isn't some kind of contract slave.
i completely asgree.

which is why i said that the best thing we could do is work towards buying that clause out, especially if its what the player wants.
 
ho ho ho

so you want Madrid to be scrabbling round for a couple of million ?

Good luck as a football analyst.
how much did they spend this summer?

its a hypothetical situation. the point, which you are happily missing, is that they dont need to want the player back. if they get an offer from someone else that exceeds the buyback, they will exercise it, as long as the player is in agreement

and just to say, unlike some of fuckers on this site, i have no interest in having to pretend to be an expert or analyst. im not that insecure

If Madrid want to go through all the hassle to make a £2m profit, surely we'll just pay them that £2m and keep Reguilon? Heck Levy can even throw Perez a free tour of the skywalk to sweeten the deal.
:levystare:
sums are hypothetical. the point which some are missing is that they dont need to want the player back. they just need an offer from elsewhere that they are happy with. these days, the chances are the player would have agreed before the selling club ( in this case, lets call it madrid, not us) is even approached.

We could simply match the offer they're getting from somewhere else and save them all the hassle of completing deals.

Let's say Juventus offer £45m for Reguilon, so Madrid exercise their £(28+15)m, buy back clause to make a £2m profit. We could simply pay them those £2m and keep Reguilon and change his original cost from £28m to £30m.

If Juve offer £50m, then we pay Madrid £7m and change his cost to £35m. Whatever offer another club makes to Madrid, we can actually 'match' it by offering £43m less than that! Sounds mad but the math checks out!

We'll only really come unstuck if Madrid sack Zidane and the new manager sees Reguilon as their starter.

yes, of course we could.
it could be contractual that they have to offer us the chance. it might not be. But for that two years, they can effectively sell him to someone else whilst hes still our player with us as a club not being really being able to do much (obviously it depends on the actual terms of the buy bacl clause, which we dont know)

I think they'll at least keep us in the loop. For their own profit. Maybe we can outbid the club they want to sell him to. Unless they want to do a dodgy deal with the third club or want one of their players. Anyway, I'm not too worried about that right now. Let's win as many trophies as we can in these two seasons so that Reguilon realises this is the club he was born to play for.
