Amazing. Yup, 5 mil more. But honestly, that's not too bad.

Get Onana and Højlund and I'll unclench. Can't wait to see Mount though.

[–] zsolaris 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not even "5 mil more" most likely.

Orny reports that the 5M bonuses are hard ones.

It seems like the deal we put on the table was basically 50M + 5M of fairly easy bonuses. What we agreed to is 55M + 5M of the Balon d'Or special.

Realistically, we probably aren't out any more money. If we are, it'll have been fucking worth it.

I'd gladly have us pay that 5M bonus for a Balon d'Or from him!

What’s the latest on Højlund? Atalanta still have a ridiculous fee?
