He would be their most expensive signing ever, if he goes for the 50M we said we wanted. Presumably that would be a bit too steep for them, and they would go for the likes of Bade at around 30M?
I’m on the Quansah bus and I hope he stays. I think he is a very good player and just had one or two little wobbles this past season, so he dropped out of the side. But he’s got the lot, for me. With question marks over Konate’s contract, not to mention niggly injuries, with VVD getting older and with Gomez missing a lot of football, I would be loathe to sell Quansah.
Still, if Slot doesn’t quite fancy him, I’m sure he will happily reinvest the dough. I’d be surprised if Leverkusen put enough money down for him to make us deal.
𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖?: Liverpool made £84M from finishing 1st in the UEFA Champions League group stages, received over £180M from winning the Premier League and spent only £10M last summer on Federico Chiesa.
So the money 100% is there and it’s time to be aggressive this summer, so we set ourselves for the next 5 years.
I doubt PSR rules allow for that given we owned his registration last year. If he’s on a five year 20% of his fee counts against last year’s spend whether we stumped up any actual cash or not.
It’s pointless looking at what we might be able to spend based simply on net spend per window anyway but the convenient omission of things like the deal for him, new contracts, agents fees and bonuses really grinds my gears.
We got 10m for Bobby Clark , 27m for Carvalho and 22m for VDB.
Safe to say that any transfer fee for Mamardashvili is well within what we’ve recieved for the above three even if the three had some clauses where a percentage was due to their previous clubs.
He does in the amortisation figures and that’s what really matters.
All that playing stuff is just a distraction from the real prize, “The PSR Transfer Window Club World Conference Trophy sponsored by Kyrgyzstan Tourism.”
