Alvarez done deal - £82m to Atletico

Great news that Paris are sniffing around too, helps keep the fee high if more than one club at the table.
We tell the player the price, soon as either club match it he can go. Doubt this gets into a mad bidding war tbh. Soon as Madrid hit 70, he'll be gone even if PSG offer way over
 
Seems like a situation where having a solid veteran striker as backup would make more sense one who'd not mind riding bench, having occasional starts and coming on in the latter stages of games. Not sure who that is in this moment or market (ala Fulkrug although i realize he's not available) but as a squad planning approach it seems obvious to me stacking the 9 with a top tier mega star and someone with a great deal of upside is eventually going to result in the second one wanting to get out of the other's shadow and have the chance at that regular starting role elsewhere.
Griezmann. Cheap, low wages, won't complain, can play false 9, striker, winger, AM, scores a lot, good play maker, great vision, Assists a lot, great work rate...
 
Sorloth has gone for very little in payment terms from the off. whole deal is only 25m at best. still leaves 50m from the cash injection never mind what the budget already was.
Still think they are going to be still short in matching our valuation.
