Erling Haaland

5 years ago Erling would have been a cert. for Barca or Madrid. Their collective debts now approach 2 billion. They will have to sell players in a buyers market. The likes of Griezman, Coutinho,Bale etc were good players, but their ages mean that the money received will not be great.Equally, such massive player sales that are being predicted at the Spanish clubs would make anyone wary of joining as there is no stability, and the managers are also looking weak. Look at City. Phil,Raheem,Dias,Rodders,Ederson, all great players and still relatively young. I doubt any of these guys will move soon.The club has a sound financial footing, and play great football.
Would be surprised if Chelsea are involved with the purchases they made last season. Think it will be us or the Rags. There will be posturing to get the best deal for sure. I do feel it is time for us to once again make a landmark signing and just hope the City connections get this over the line.
If it happens, great, if it doesnt ,well, we move on. The bitter pill to swallow would be him going to the Rags. That, I would struggle to understand given his links to City.
 
Ideal if Haalands dad walks into OT for negotiations see's murals of Roy Keane and turns around and walks out.
Remember lad they cheered your injury.

Why wouldn’t we be? We’re a better team, better manager and more recent success. We are a bigger club than London’s third biggest team.

Because non of those things feed into clicks.Saw an article once that mentioned this. Think it wa football365. It actually stated that when they post an article that has us in the headline it will get less clicks than the obvious united, liverpool aresenal barcelona madrid. But also mentioned teams like chelsea,spurs.
We probably generate more clicks than we used to even a year or two ago, but we still aren't a big click generator hence why those other teams are crow barred into headlines however tenuous.

Am ill put this since its in my report im writing but this is how Barca are making money Btw.

Barca Tv June 2020 2 euros a month they have a following of over 350 million all they need is half of that to subscribe and their making 430 million euro revenue from that alone

The stadiums name rights = 300 million over a 20 year period

whats killing them really is not the players but the stadium expansion = the budget originally was suppossed to be 700 million but due to covid and the project not being compleated that budget now is 900 million euros. new stadium is suppossed to bring in 150 million euro revenue but its not been compleated add to that zero fans they are bleeding money in this aspect

Estimated figures of 350m fans is at best a guess and even if it were anywhere near true (which its not) it includes the spectrum from devoted fan to passing interest - millions around the world buy 'knock off' Barca shirts from market stalls but are they really fans??. Other clubs TV channels clearly show that subscription rates are low. These channels just regurgitate club propaganda that even the most ardent fan finds dull after a time - I'm sure MUTV just about covers its costs and is a useful form of communication to 'brainwash the unwashed' but its not a big money maker for the Rags. No way are Barca going to make 100's of millions from a club TV channel.
