They'll never get over this. lol
This is a good read, and pretty much fleshes out my hot take. Defensively (physicality, mobility) good, can pass, not brilliant under duress on the the ball.

He is a player we needed but not a player you would break the wage structure to get.
The best kind...... Solid 7 & 8s that are still extremely eager to impress.

Right
I guess my question is how far off Bayern's is our wage structure where they are offering 75% more for a 4th CB vs us for a 3rd CB?
Mate that doesn't add up.
If our 50k is double what he was on at Genoa then 75% more than his OG 25k = 43.75k offer from BM.
Alternatively, if we're paying him 50k and BM offered him 75% more than we did that equates to 87.5k.
That's nothing. This is Skippy when he was 18 months...So he was 18 in this pic...
There is no "royal team" as such, there are around 30 teams called "Real Something-Or-Other" - apart from Madrid the best-known are Real Sociedad and Real Betis. You can see a list here although some are repeated (men's/women's team, B teams etc)...
"Real Something" clubs
None have any current connection to the crown or state or anything, any more than we have a connection to the Earl of Northumberland. They got the name "Real" after they made the king at the time (Alfonso XIII) their honorary president.

If this deal is as reported
— offered the club considerably less money than Bayern
— offered the player less money than Bayern
— An unwanted Djed Spence going the other way
then, indeed, it’s a fucking masterclass and Levy or his team at their ‘Wimmer Deal’ best.

Really? I'm off to Woolwich then.
Glad you spotted that..... It ought to cool some of the "this should have been sorted before the window even opened" anger we saw over the last couple of weeks........
As noted by some; even if you speak to the player and get certain aspects of the deal agreed; the parent club will only come to the table when it suits them; not before.......
Clearly there was some kind of reluctance to move too quickly on Genoa's part as it served them to see what other bidders came out of the woodwork (and indeed BM & Napoli did so). It was also reported that Genoa were trying to get him to re-sign (in hindsight; perhaps thinking that it would hike any possible fee up further? .....Albeit naively on their part as all surrounding elements seemingly to point to the fact that they needed to sell all along.)
(Anyway; this isn't a gotcha aimed at anyone in particular... It's just a) interesting how these things unfold and b) reassuring that we finally have our shit together more than we have had since before the Mitchel/Hitchins era.)

Romero and dragsuin will lead us to glory!!!!
Ange Postecoglou was clear to the player how much he wanted to sign him
"Mate, I work these guys so hard their hammies are popping like champagne corks at Ascot so you'll get loads of playing time"

The current King is an Atleti fan I think?
