How old will Sergio be at the end of the 2018-19 season?
And, if he leaves at the end of 2018, as in after the WC, might there be a small gentleman's agreement" fee associated with the move? Many, many players appear to sign new deals and then go straight on the market (if they weren't already!) just so their club can jack up their fee. Might there be a gentleman's agreement that he gets a free pass to leave for Independiente after the WC, but there will be a small fee attached to cover the last year of his contract?
It's an actual question, not an ITK attempt, or some conspiracy theory.
