It was 15 million mate. Benfica only got 5 of it due to a sell on clause from Real and some player rights image.

Who's to say we didn't consider a deal for the player but decided to pass on a deal for non-footballing reasons.

After the revelations of the last few years about extortionate agents fees, crazy wage demands, family member backhanders and shady third-party agreements I don't take any announced deal at face value. The current regime at our club do not seem to have any appetite for those sorts of deals whereas plenty of clubs in the provincial leagues of Europe who have no qualms about doing dirty deals, as it were.

Still don't understand why we're after Mangala, I thought we'd be done after he said he prefers both Chelsea and United to City
