Arsenal still met that clause in 2013. Liverpool managed persuaded him to stay for one more season and he moved on to Barcelona. No reason Newcastle could still do the same this time around.

Of course Newcastle can try and persuade him to stay and they might be successful in doing so. They just can't turn down a release clause offer. The player can but I doubt a club would offer the release clause without having the go-ahead from the player's agent.

Anyway, we have no idea if we are interested in him or if he is interested in us. Time will tell.

With a release clause don’t the current club just have to notify the player that they have received that amount and then the player decides yes or no?

Yes, I would’ve thought that was fairly obvious to most! I think Ray is getting a little confused.

In one way yes but the selling club could still ignore it like Liverpool did.

Liverpool didn't ignore anything they persuaded the player to change his mind and thus it made the release clause a moot point. You are conflating personal terms and a release clause.

I think you need to understand the law of contract and tort a little better Ray, if the player has a release clause he chooses whether to exercise it, not the selling club.

Suarez did want the Arsenal move (who wouldn't want to move away from Liverpool).

 

[RayCTID]

Still don't think it is that simple as a release clause but if we did manage it then fair fucks to people who are in charge.

Got a feeling he will decide to stay at Newcastle. He seems to like being the main man. Newcastle have others they can seek such as isak to raise funds

They really shouldn’t sell Isak. He’s their best player.

Saying that there have been plenty of transfers have not taken place despite a release clause had been met.The rags had become a cropper with that with Athletic Bilbao.
