LFCMike Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Could have sworn I'd seen a topic for this one but a quick search doesn't find anything. Anyway Barcelona have been banned from signing Liverpool and Netherlands midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, 29, because of strict La Liga financial rules.

Administrator Stan Posted September 20, 2020 Administrator Share Posted September 20, 2020 Apparently La Liga have put a cap on spending for each club in the league. Not sure of the intricacies of it but this could impact their game/league for the better. Rely on youth more and stop the obscene spending in that league, mainly by Real and Barca.

Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted September 20, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted September 20, 2020 Well they've just moved Nelson Semedo to Wolves but I doubt that brings them under the RFEF regulations yet. Moving Coutinho and Suarez on might be able to make this happen but I can't see them doing that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barcelona have apparently accepted the offer and Wolves are tying things up from the news doing the rounds. The Jota move is making a lot more sense now.

Wow. What a player to lose. I know they were looking at getting Aarons in (for which Norwich rejected!) but didn't know it was in place of Semedo. That's insane.

Dr. Gonzo Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 James Pearce is saying it’s unlikely he extends his contract with us and is probably leaving on a free at the end of the season. Which is fair enough, he’s 30 and has given us some years of excellent service. I don’t begrudge him looking for one last massive payday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not exactly a high earner in comparison to some of the others either. We get another year from him and he goes somewhere on a big wage and signing on fee next year, everyone's happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fabinho will cover at centre back as seen yesterday. Hopefully it means we can have a decent go in one of the cups. You'd imagine Jones and Milner will start them games with one other. You've not even mentioned Chamberlain there either haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
