Now sounds like we want to purchase outright Link to post Share on other sites

But it's one of those staggered transfer fees with %s based on good things like promotion. Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 We've apparently outbid a middle east club and billionaire owned Fulham for a Brazilian striker? The same Boro who've been locked in discussions about supposedly minor financial details with Banfield for 2 weeks? I hope it's true but it would be a massive financial outlay...

I don't think it's a case of outbidding as such. I don't get the impression that the fee is massive. This player is nowhere near a finished prospect and obviously that's going to impact how far clubs are willing to go for him. I doubt the UAE club is a serious option for him, it's the wrong move for his career, even if they are willing to meet what Flamengo want for him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
