Omar Berrada to the rags | TLDR: They want to be us

[Roachy]

Hey ho, we move on. His replacement may be even better.

Jokes aside, but if charges are proven he would be culpable like others and possibly get a ban from football. So actually the fact United are taking him may mean they don’t think there will be any issues?

As the rags always do due diligence?

Sam Lee saying it was presumed he would replace txiki.
Wasn't he in a more senior role than txiki so that should have been a step down.

Sam Lee knows fuck all. Big nosed c*nt

Hopefully, but they are not the sharpest knives in the drawer, they probably look no further than they have contributed to another empty seat at our stadium

I wouldn’t read too much into it - especially when it relies on assuming that shower would make sensible decisions ;)

Lee has gotten confused and thought Sorriano presumably.

Txiki is Director of Football, Berrada is a commercial guy.

He was never going to replace Tkiki he’s not a football man he’s an administrator possibly Ferran but I doubt he’s going anywhere which is more than likely why Omar as defected

This is hugely concerning and potentially has huge ramifications.

Omar was viewed within the club as a natural successor to Ferran Soriano as CFG’s CEO and played a huge part (In everything) that went on at the club and the wider City football group.

Omar has knowledge and information on absolutely every detail of City’s and CFG’s operation. Something really, really fishy about this.

I have no doubt Khaldoon will have tried to intervene to retain him.

Fishy how? He didn’t have the top job with us, because we have somebody better. Man moves to get top job elsewhere, we probably tried to talk him out of it, but we’ll replace him and move on as normal.
Of course other teams want our people because our people are pretty much the best. Nothing complicated about it.

Well it’s not all bad news. Would the rags employ someone who could be facing time. And he will have signed an NDA. So I’m sure the club won’t fret
