kirksandallowl Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Surely they should’ve just forced him to sign a new contract last summer. How can you let a player with a £600m buy out clause run his contract down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever the pessimist Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 He’ll stay at Barcelona yet. La Liga won’t want him to leave so will do their best to help Barca keep him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Liga won’t want him to leave so will do their best to help Barca keep him I don't know. Barcelona net debt is €488 Million. That is if they sold all of their assets, they would still owe that amount. Its crazy. La Liga have to stick to their guns. If not, what is the point having rules? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I posted I have been reading about an investment that la liga have agreed with a bank, but Barca and Real aren’t happy. Can’t help but view this in context of the ESL.

sheffield_dave Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I hate the inevitably of him ending up at PSG or City almost default of being the only clubs who can afford him. It’s such a boring outcome to what should be the biggest move in the game. He’d be WAY more of a legend and immortalise himself even more if he played for £50k per week and went somewhere random to try and build a club around his greatness ala Maradonna. Go to Fiorentina or Marseille. Or go replace Grealish at Villa. Why not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gob_Bluth Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Reckon there's a curve ball incoming and he'll end up in the MLS at Miami on some new mega contract that the MLS sanction new rules for Kind of the like the time Beckham went to LA and they brought in the designated player rule 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlinexile Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Changing the rules of your league setup to suit a player is utterly ridiculous. Is this a sport or 'sports entertainment'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything this saga has taught me is that Ronaldo is the superior player and person. Why not stay at Barca for reduced money and remain a legend at a place you love and have raised your family?

Orlando_Trustful Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Strange one. I am guessing America or back home to Argentina for him, unless of course it's City or PSG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barca wage bill €647a year 2 years ago that is a staggering amount. I agree La Liga can't give in on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greed!!! Simply, Greed!! Because Ronaldo didn't push his move to Juventus for money... Knowing Juve would be paying him more than Real would have offered for a new contract. £540,000 per week wages. P.s Messi had agreed to HALF his wages to stay at Barca. Despite knowing he could have got much more elsewhere.

The only way is S6 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 PSG for 2 years my guess. Shirt sales, extra sponsorship & winning CL will compensate the outlay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least if he went to the PL he’d be playing against decent players week in week out. Messi going to France or the USA would be like Ronnie O’Sullivan rocking up at the working men’s for the snooker tournament 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
