Cankles-McJeggings Yeh but telling your kids you played for Barca is a bit more enticing than wolves and some shit box Saudi wanker hole no one has even heard of. Must have zero pride. Should have gone to Chelsea.
RichM alistair Ronaldo a bit of an exception here as he is near the end of his career and probably thinks he will transform the league all by himself.
RichM Wally exactly, it’s only the money they are interested in. Neves could still earn a fortune if he played at top clubs in Europe for the next 10 years. But clearly he isn’t interested in that. I’m sure lots of other players are the same, it’s just a job to them
Wally RichM You can love your job but still be prepared to do it in a ‘lesser’ environment for 15x the payrise imo. I don’t think it’s as black and white ‘he’s only in it for the money’ as you make out.
hugopal I don’t think Neves is especially good; the links with Barcelona sounded nonsense tbh. Wolves is/was his level.
Echo Mendy, Koulibaly, Kante and Ziyech all off to PIF-funded Saudi clubs as well. The same PIF that’s a major investor in Clearlake, Chelsea’s majority shareholder. £40m a year off the wage bill in one fell swoop.
BlainSA Sacrificing glory to better support your loved ones seems to be more important to some people 🤷
Cankles-McJeggings Christian saudi’s have now made a £60m offer for son 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
