Mendes getting 30% cut in Felix deal??
Outrageous

That is why we won't do it imo

Benfica have denied the Atletico reports. So we still have a chance. :)

It has no bearing on us, Mendes is getting that money from Benfica, not the buying club.

Keeps putting those bets on and you will need to.

How did this one work out for you?

It's over. He's off to Atletico. Benfica just playing hardball to squeeze as much money out of them.

I do expect him to eventually join Atletico. But Benfica apparently want the 120m clause. So not sure there is any money squeezing going on.

But if we are still after him. Then there is hope.

Benfica won't sell him for less than his release clause, so there is nothing to "squeeze".

Judging by the odds, its a done deal. Reminds of us signing Bernardo all of a sudden.

Wages? Also agent fees too.

The structure of the payments, will Atletico pay in full or over installments? It isn't exactly as easy as meeting the release clause.

Saw it coming weeks ago when at 7/1.
