Bruno Guimaraes

I don’t know about better, I think Oaqueta is incredibly talented, but I think Bruno is a better target. His skill set is rarer - there’s not many players who can play 6 and 8 equally well and be creative from deep and around the box.

Wingers/Attacking midfielder hybrids are common as muck really, there’s a new £100m one every year.

Rodri-Bruno-Foden could be a midfield until 2030.

From limited viewing I just prefer the Newcastle player. When England played Brazil recently, I thought Paqueta was a bit of a liability - not ability wise, just he looked often reckless and from memory could well have been sent off. He seems to get away with a lot of niggling and intentional fouling.

Both a similar age so nothing in that. I'd imagine Newcastle wouldn't be easy to deal with from a financial aspect.
 
Release clause mean very little if the selling club completely ignores said clause. Harry Kane was on up until Spurs completely dissmissed the sale.
 
Surely if there is a release clause in the contract the selling club can’t ignore it.
Liverpool did. Villa took their time with Jack Grealish. Newcastle United's owners were not completely stupid when they renewed Bruno Guimarares' contract. Josko Gvardiol's tranfer didn't instantaneously happen either.

In Kanes case there were no release clause, just gentlemans agreement between him and Levy and Levy shat on that agreement
 
Still didn't happen. The selling club always has a say. Same with us and Bernardo Silva.
Not with a release cause they don't. We'd obviously have to still persuade the player to come though.

All Newcastle could do would be to try and offer the player better terms.

I saw no evidence that Harry Kane had a release clause. He claimed to have a gentleman's agreement with Levy. You can't ignore a contractual release clause it is legally binding.

Would agree with this if in the contract but think it then moves on to when the payments are made - cash up front , spread over life of contract etc. Would imagine every buying club would want a discount for up front payments whilst the sellers want the cash up front without the discount. Think this is the dance that takes place under these circumstances.

Ray does seem to be biting back at the release clause part doesn’t he?

It looked on until the selling club pulled the plug. Newcastle can do the same to a player who has a good amount of time left on his current deal
 
Mad that anyone thinks this lad is anywhere near good enough for us

He punches his fist to the crowd when he makes a tackle, and that's enough to think it's a no from me

If I've missed something fair enough, but just dont see him as a City player

No they can't if he has a release clause. We are simply responsible for making the payment to Newcastle that the contract stipulates. There is contract law that clubs have to follow here. They can't just do whatever they feel like. If he doesn't have a release clause then it is a different matter.
