Transfer: Winter Transfer Thread

[Savi]

I love how Leipzig are "leading the race" to ship a player from one affiliatie to another

I mean, the player still had his pick of big clubs cause of the clause in his contract. I get the optics, but it's not like RB could've forced him to move to Leipzig if he wanted to go someplace else

 

[HoseEmDown]

If you're speaking about Alli, I have a hard time seeing him moving to a club like Sheffield United or Crystal Palace. I think he is going to take another shot at a relatively big club.

It would be just a 6 month loan. He hasn't played much this season and needs minutes. Not sure which big club will be coming into a guy who hasn't played much this season and can't get into the Spurs squad. So if he can't cut it at Spurs, who are kinda a big club, which big club is going after him?

Just a player that needs a change of scenery. PSG were interested in a loan this summer.

Only according to english newspapers.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Only according to english newspapers.

Both Fabrizio Romano and Ornstein have mentioned it, so it probably had some legs to it.

 

[Evilo]

Yeah for english papers surely.
Can't see the point for PSG :
1/ no place in the lineup
2/ PSG are trying to save money, adding his salary for a bench player makes zero sense.

It makes absolutely zero sense. Papers talk that's it.

1. This was probably before PSG signed Rafinha (who features quite a bit it seems like). So there clearly was a spot.

2. Pretty sure his wages are kind of low (for a PL player). Like £100k/week.

 

[YNWA14]

Patson Daka will be next.

1- Rafinha's wages and Dele's are vastly different. And Rafinha doesn't play 10 either, so not the same position.
2- That's not low in L1.

 

[Havre]

Who knows with Alli. Impossible to say what kind of agreement Spurs would have accepted. Having him on the C-team in London isn't useful for anyone. What if Spurs have paid the wages just for Alli to play somewhere else? A good season from Alli in Paris (or somewhere else) and it would have been easy to get a decent fee come summer 2021.

Not that I ever understood the PSG link, but it seemed to be reported by quite a few, like Creed said, that got reasonable reputations.

 

[Evilo]

Again, I can't see how loaning him to PSG could end up well since he'd be benched.

 

[Havre]

Again, that wasn't the discussion.

 

[Savant]

Any forwards available?

 

[Havre]

Wrong thread I guess.

This fascinates me. Financially, I’m guessing it’s just one RB subsidiary paying another? so to Red Bull global, it’s just moving money between accounts?

Red Bull is going to pay Red Bull for a Red Bull player so they can sell him for twice his current value in a few years.

This was City´s dream. Just have a million clubs around the world feeding City with players.

Actually surprised that they are doing it so half heartedly.

Klopp was dumb as hell playing Jota and Salah 90 minutes in a more than meaningless game.

For my sanity, I hope we don't get another round of five subs arguments on the back of this.

Not necessarily, Tuchel could play him at RB or something

No, Leipzig is going to pay Salzburg for a player who is going to help them on the pitch.

 

[Evilo]

How is that exclusive?

Agree with first paragraph. Disagree with second paragraph. 50% hit rate for our opinions is way above the average.

Both can be true.

As I understand it the clubs are not run by the same people nor do they share finances directly. So really it's the money coming out of Leipzig's operating budget going to Salzburg's operating budget. neither club has been burning through owner cash recently like some other large clubs do.

 

[cgf]

Both can be true.

Can be true =/= is true
