GOES TO THE CITY BY 32 MILLION
The Ivorian has contributed to seven titles in three seasons and will leave 20 million euros in capital gains
The City will in the coffers of EUR 30 million fixed and two more variables
Having solved the last remaining fringes between clubs for several days, Manchester City and ship consumes more substantial transfer in the history of the Catalan club's coffers.
The English club can now boast of having in its ranks to its desired Touré Yaya while in the offices of the Nou Camp can boast being about to join 30 million directly and most likely, 2 million more by way of variables more affordable in a regular-season matches, qualifying for the Champions League and titles.
The operation was performed. The representative of Ivory Coast, Dmitri Selçuk, had advanced the agreement so settled in their continued appearances in the press and makes only 48 hours, the corporate CEO Barça, Joan Oliver, admitted that "negotiations are very mature." . All that remained was the final announcement and to resolve some procedural questions. Barca make big cash and before 30 June.
At present, the legal services of both clubs working at top speed drafting all relevant documentation. And is that negotiations have been accelerated following the disappointing performance of the Ivory Coast in the World Cup. In the absence of a party to conclude the first phase, is more than likely that the next weekend, Touré Yaya is able to take the City's private plane to travel to England and be subject to relevant medical at Manchester. Then it will be time to make official the most expensive transfer in the history of Barça.
The agreement between clubs is closed, but everything is contingent on the doctors give final approval. This is just a normal procedure in all transactions. The City is in a hurry because the player's contract is an important claim for the new sports project. Yaya Toure has been one more round of business by the club in the chapter on investment in players.
If in sporting performance has been more than satisfactory "in its three seasons has achieved seven titles and has played a basic game outline Guardiola-in the economic plot their profitability has been brutal if you compare their arrival and departure . In its day, the club had to pay 9.5 million euros to take over its services.
It is true that the transaction contemplated some additional bonus of 500,000 euros per share achieved and for access to the Champions League. Overall, given the success in recent seasons, the Catalan club has disbursed a total amount of 11.5 million euros. If now the Manchester City has closed the contract on payment of 30 million euros, the accounts of the club will end up registering a gain of 18.5 million. . Given recent history, few players have been so profitable in sporting and economic.
Since the departure of Dutchman Van Bommel, no player of the first team had asked to be traded. Ivorian midfielder has broken this little rule. African wants more playing time, he loves football as practiced in the Premiership and also in the ranks of the City will be reunited with his brother Kolo, a fact that has been decisive for the player has not forced the machine other negotiations with English clubs.
Football history is the most capricious and has no memory. Yaya Toure signed his contract extension and improvement of the Barça. It was another era, the club did justice to the performance of the Ivorian football player and all but swore eternal love to the body while confirming its remarkable progress in the study of Catalan. Twelve months later, after passing quietly by South Africa, is one step of calling at Manchester City.
MARKET ALTERNATIVES
Pep Txiki and take time scrutinizing the market for defensive midfielders. The differences with Touré and his complicated adviser, Dmitri Selçuk, were being dragged away and nobody wanted to tighten the rope more than necessary. The Ivorian behavior has been exemplary in the locker room, but Guardiola priorities Busquets pass to convert into a permanent fixture and provide it with more minutes in the future.
Against this background, and understanding the wishes of the African, the consensual transfer of 30 million euros deposited Manchester City are seen as a positive trading from any point of view. technical secretariat alternative shuffled into the French market that was not far beyond the ten million euros.
