This part at the bottom:
BBC Sport has approached Manchester City for comment.

Good luck with that as why the hell would City speak to the Rag BBC

Valladolid using words like, 'Supposedly' and 'appear to'. Not very definite are they?

Morally bankrupt fc lol.

See nothing wrong, player signed on loan then permanent on Jan. said player then buys himself out of contract to join bigger club.

Bah moved from AIK Freetown to Real Valladolid and now gods own.

City offered a good fee which Real turned down.

So we tried to play fair and they got greedy so we said well fuck you.

Big bad wolf city again. The football world loves a villain.

Get to city by any means possible…love it -:)

A little side note. Great story about how his home club in Sierra Leone got their name. There was ebola outbreak in Sierra Leone and the club had to burn their kit and training gear.

AIK Stockholm fans heard about this and set up a go fund me page. The fans donated a large sum of money and dontated lots AIK training gear and match kits. The african club changed their name to AIK and now play with their match kit.

I feel a bit Sheepish about his name.

I think it's a bit feminine too but some might say it's awful while others might even say it's...

Bah-ewe-offal.

We are the experts of shit PR.

I doubt we’ve done much, if anything, wrong here but it’s not ideal timing.

If we are blameless we need our media team (if we fucking have one) to nuke and rebuke, as Malcolm Tucker says.

Presumably the only reason a young player pays his way out of a contract is that his new club have offered a big signing on fee as they have avoided paying a transfer fee.

If this is what’s happened it’s not great by usus.

Na it is standard in Spain, the player effectively pays his own release clause, but the club pay it in reality.

That's not the 'worrying' bit (if there is one), it is the tone and insinuation that we bullied them into losing a player.

But I also struggle to think that the club would have done that without feeling there was an unreasonable stance there to begin with. Normally they just pay a bit exta to keep the selling club happy and show a bit of good faith.

We’ve done nothing wrong. Release clauses get paid everyday. They did a poor job understanding what type of talent they had on their hands.

 

[StillBluessinceHydeRoad]

All we need now are emails in Der Spiegel to support claims that our behaviour is criminal and a statement from Senor Tebas outlining the punishment City should suffer.

It’s hardly Neymar buyout figures is it?

 

[Coatigan]

probably thought they could strongarm him into signing a senior deal with a higher clause, city offered something in the middle of both clauses. Club said no, player/agent said fine here's the youth contract fee. Bye.

That is what it sounds like. Still the bad reaction comes with a bad smell, unfortunately.

 

[oakiecokie]

To be fair I don’t like this it has a smell of City pulling the strings and telling Real Valladolid to know your place,but if everything has been done above board then there’s fuck all they can do,I’m sure this isn’t the first time this has happened and is probably common place in a way with teams,still doesn’t sit right with me.

Thank you Mr Morality and welcome to the big world of reality.

Sounds a bit more complex than that as they seem to have executed the clause to buy him in the summer.

Where that is legally, I don’t know as that new contract would likely only come into force from the summer, so therefore the lower release clause is probably still active, but I’m not a lawyer.

 

[Kinkladze's crazy skills]

I guess there's only one way for this to be resolved...
