Just wanted to confirm that Vlahovic was never going to happen. If there was a chance it was last summer, but this is what we were going to compete against:
Vlahovic deal: The (big) numbers
- Juventus will pay an initial 70m Euros (£58.3m) to Fiorentina over the next three financial years.
- They will also pay Fiorentina 10m Euros (£8.3m) in performance-related add-ons.
- The 11.6m Euros of "additional costs" include 10m Euros (£8.3m) in agent fees plus 1.6m Euros (£1.3m) of solidarity payments towards his youth teams, mainly Partizan Belgrade.
- The total transfer fee Juventus could pay for Vlahovic is 91.6m Euros (£76.3m).
- Vlahovic will receive a gross salary of 7m Euros per season for the next four and a half years - a total of 31.5m Euros (£26.2m).
- It means Juventus have committed a total of 123.1m Euros (£102.5m) to sign Vlahovic.
