Aymeric Laporte

[PragueBlue]

£16m to a Saudi club would be utterly pathetic. Which is why it's obviously bollocks.

Fucking hell, even Bilbao could stretch to that.

Wouldn't stretch to his wages though.

16 mill for Eric!!

 

[philiph20]

16 million beggars belief, an absolute steal, WTF.

 

[Coatigan]

Why do people believe everything they read on Twitter.

Fucking think for yourselves ffs. You have the capacity.

 

[Trickyblues]

first silva release clause and 16 mil for laporte is city for real

Do you believe everything you see on social media?

What difference does the fee make. Zero is the answer.

It isn't going to stop City signing Paqueta or Doku, so who cares.

Huge wages off the books, a profit when you consider amortization I believe and letting a great servant leave to earn a great sum for the rest of his career. Literally no downsides.

It doesn't make any sense. Someone is taking the piss, either the Club or this guy.

Even our academy graduate get sold for more than €20m. Then how can we sanction a deal less than 20m for Laporte....? It smells crap.

The answer is many things. Zero is not one of them.

It almost certainly won't be 16m though. I'd say 30m is unlikely too. I trust the club so not really bothered.

 

[Damanino]

mental, they paying 40m+ for Mitrovic.
Henderson was like 10m.
Neves with 1 y left on his contract was 47m.

no way Laporte should be less than 30m.
