They cant do both purchases....right now they have to finance the Neymar deal...

Another big purchase can risk breaching fair play rules.

ok...just read something on de hinternets saying they going for both. Also read dat Barcelona was trying to get Coutinho from Liverpool. Just say NO Klopp smile

I figure dat fair play rules dun mash up. When Barcelona could have the Neymar Messi and de Cannibal...dat en fair rolleyes

Sanchez? Looks like he is going to PSG also

You sure? I can't see them affording the two of them without busting the "fair play" rules.

LaLiga rejects 222M payment


That said, Neymar deserves his "own" team. He is the new CR7, possibly even more marketable. Quadruple the star power of Messi with half the skill. He is going to sell a lot of crap for his owners.

Neymar needs messi...he is good but not a general like messi...

He had not learned to grab a game by the scruff of the neck and own it like messi or ronaldo.

I agree that someone that is creative and can provide is needed to collaborate with him. Not necessarily Messi, but someone similar.

I think Neymar can be very tenacious even though he is seen as a style over substance player. I have seen instances of real grit from him.

I think he is going to score a lot more goals being on a team where he is the main man. I am going to be watching some french league now.

Barca reportedly terminates contract....deal going through

Transfer complete...222 facking Euros = £200m

That amount could buy you a whole premier team.

And the player will earn 45m euros per annum

The football world has gone mad!

 
Maispwi 2017-08-03 16:05:53 

La Liga saw nothing wrong with Barca setting a buyout clause of 222 mill euros but have a problem when someone pays it?

I think they thought they set a ridiculous figure that would have secured him for life.
