I think it is a detail often lost, and that doesn't really get clarified in reports or twitter claims.

As I understand it, from the numerous in depth articles during messigate, it is about wages, not money raised sales, up until the point they are excessively over the wage cap.

So they could get 200m for deyong. It doesnt mean they have 200m to reduce their gap to register players. Removing his wages, does. I could be wrong, but that is how I read La Liga rules last year.
Surely all the players they signed this summer are collectively on more than de Jong is on.
How does that work?
 
I don't think Frenkie is interested in coming to City. I think he goes to Chelsea.

Barca need both a big fee and someone to pay the deferred wages. City wouldn't entertain that.
If City showed any interest in FDJ, he would be attracted to working under Pep.
 
I think for Pep its negligent to have players in the squad who don't want to be here. We don't know if that is the case for Bernardo because I don't think he would ever go public and will just get his head down but if Pep looks into his eyes and thinks the passion isn't there then hes got to go.

Tell the player he is required this season and we will get him to Barcelona next year if needed.
 
No Effing way he leaves City to join the Dippers!!!
I can understand him not loving the Manchester weather, but Liverpool is hardly the Costa Del Soleil is it?
It will be Barca or nowt.
 
Every player has a price, mine on this player is £200 million after all i value him higher than Neymar, well that finishes this thread
 

Fucking hell it's never ending.

I don't understand how they can afford Bernie, let alone where they're going to play him.

My understanding is that they need to reduce their wage bill to comply with la liga rules.

So even if they sell FDJ for say €80m and we fold and sell Bernie to them for that price, they still have to pay FDJ the deferred wages owed and my guess is that Bernie, being better than FDJ, will get paid at least what he gets - £220/week , so surely they wouldn't be any better off, and probably worse off, financially?

I don't want to bring politics into this but if you remember.. a certain someone lied so many times.. people who couldn't do reasonable thinking started thinking it was true.

Basically propaganda.. repeat a lie enough times that the truth seems like a lie.

You're actually able to do reasonable thinking so you know.. the math doesn't add up. Even with advanced calculus of a payday loan.. the math doesn't add up.

So just trust yourself over these propaganda lies. That's all they are.. meant to unsettle us.

And if you've been a long time City supporter, you heard the same lies about Aguero, David Silva wanting to go to Spain.

Now that Frenkie De Jong is staying at Barca, he'll stay at City for at least another season

I think they’re banking on Chelsea’s desperation bailing them out of the shit, and getting them off the hook on the deferred wages - meaning they pay Bernie less than they were FDJ, clear the debt to the player, and improve their situation on the wage cap all in a single swoop.

Mendes will be pushing this one hard to make it happen for this summer too.

The big question is, how can Bernardo gambles his football career on Barcelona? This whole wage war with the players is a red flag to go there.

Yep lies, propaganda seems to make us think.. do players not have any common sense?

Bernardo doesn't come across to me as stupid.

Yeah but if Bernie went for less than what FDJ is getting (£220k/wk) then he's crazy.

I can see how this benefits Mendes, one more big payday before his "fee" gets slashed next season.

Agreed, ask him to stay one more season as we are now In a position to win the CL with our new signings, then If we win It he can go after winning everything to be won with City, with our blessings.
 
I still don't believe the hype, but if he wants to go there, then he is either thick or he's being manipulated by his agent.

I can understand players of a certain age, from a country without a recent iconic team, maybe getting all misty eyed, but of all these guys who 'really want to play for Barca', none of them are on peanuts.
DeJong is a great example. 2 years ago.
'I really want to play for you - 300k per week you say! - Dont want to play for you that much'.
'I really want to play for Barca - 500k pw, you say! The money's not important, but ok'.

Did Barca go straight in at 500k (or whatever it is)?

Substitute any other players name you like.
