Erling Haaland part 2

The clause didn't even mean he would definitely leave - just gave the option for a minimal release fee. He might have wanted to stay.

His agent would definitely want him to move.

Like Pogba? How has that worked out for him?

Badly, but that it because Pogba is an awful shit-@#%&!.

The reason you're pining over Haaland is because he isn't an awful shit-@#%&! (as far as we know), so it's not really a fair comparison.

Agreed - Haaland is also world-class. Paul Pogba certainly is not.

Zlatan was on a one year contract, not sure how that is more favourable than having Halaand here for two years.

Because he was free and clearly a temporary fix. I’m pretty sure no one was telling him we’re going to be building a team around him.

No, actually nothing at all like Pogba. Mate, what don’t you understand about us having ownership and control versus 3rd party ownership and zero control? Do you really not understand? It’s baffling to me.

It's not third party control. Someone posted that and you have taken it as gospel. It's nothing of the sort.

Anyway, Dortmund accepted the clause and we can exploit it when the time comes...

ok hold on here....does haaland have a buy back clause or a buy out clause?

He has a buy out clause of £66m according to reports. Can't see him going back to RB Leipzig...

if he has a £66m buy out clause, every top team in europe is going to be willing to pay that fee. For a player of his quality, that's an absolute bargain price

Me - 29/12/19:

I cant believe the authorities are letting him get away with it. At best it’s borderline 3rd party ownership.

Whenever you’re ready mate. No pressure.

Correct, so the real auction is going to be the behind the scenes agent/management fees.

Please don’t expect WW to understand this, it’s asking enough for his peanut brain to understand the kid’s a good player - processing power left, 0%

And by all accounts it’s nowhere near 66m anyway. What Raiola and Haaland sr make from this should dwarf what he made from the Pogba sale, and Dortmund have literally no say in the matter.

Raiola and Haaland Sr are going to be upwards of 25-30m behind the scenes in upfront money and then of course the add-ons which will be built into a contract

this transfer will easily cost 100m when it's all said and done b/c the agent holds all the cards

It will probably be us that pays it too.

100m for a player like Haaland....gotta pay it

which obviously would sting a bit considering we could have had him for a third of that price initially....he would be a fantastic #9 for how Ole sets up the team to play
