He's a former player of ours now at Barca and loaned by them to Girona. Been the mainstay of their defence all season. Just pointing out that they are going to loose probably their three best players and as we cannot loan them any players and the top flight in Spain won't either it's going to be a tough year for them. Not only in the CL but in La Liga.What has Eric Garcia got to do with us?
Starch?How can a man, with any self-respect, dress like that and perform such embarrassingly choreographed dance moves?

We cannot loan them any as they are in the CL.We can loan them 3 players.
I imagine because Salzburg and Leipzig were not likely to win it or upset the domestic apple cart by usurping Bayern or PSG?
What people don't realise, is Salzburg and Leipzig are actually in two different countries. One is in Austria, the other in Germany.
Whereas, Manchester and Girona are both in Abu Dhabi.

Haha, love it!What people don't realise, is Salzburg and Leipzig are actually in two different countries. One is in Austria, the other in Germany.

Is that new for next season? Cancello could play.We cannot loan them any as they are in the CL.
There was no such stipulation for Red Bull Salzburg when they qualified for the CL alongside Leipzig was there? What's the difference. If I was the CFG that's what I'd be asking. If there was then fair enough.

Hate to interrupt yet another conspiracy theory but yes, Salzburg and Leipzig did have to do this, a Swiss judge went through both companies and made them seperate all shared assets and people who worked for the group/both clubs in scouting or business roles were made to just work for 1.
Because they did that, they didn't fail article 5.
IMO the biggest potential problem for CFG is sponsorship. The RB clubs had to split their sponsorships in a way that satisfied UEFA's CFCB. Shared sponsors is kind of core to the whole CFG project.

Totally agree. It's important to take a wider picture of football sometimes, even if it maybe comes at a detriment of City Football Group.Reasonable request for me.
This is the huge downside of multi club ownership and it could affect the fairness of a competition and that is not right.

Thanks for the clarification. I didn't really think both were in Abu Dhabi though.
