All or them have a history of inventing sums out of the blue. Asking because I read of a yearly income between 15 and 17 m Euro, which would be 243k to 278k Pound Sterling per week. Correct! 99% of media are a bunch of chancers trying to sell papers or get clicks on a site. they claimed Haaland would cost 65million and 500k a week wages when the true numbers came out at 51million and 325k a week wages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted June 3, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted June 3, 2022 I'd really have liked to see something done with Lewandowski in all of this to come to Liverpool. Still feel he has a lot to offer and with Diaz now moving into Mane's spot and Jota needing time to readjust I think that would have been a good trade in all of this. Plus the guy is a proven goal-scorer and has worked with Klopp before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More then that I doubt as thats basically in around our top earners of Neuer, Müller, Sane and the highest is apparently Lewy at around €23m. I think Rucks right in the wheelhouse anyways but maybe it does reach 20... with Gnabry reportedly being offered and rejecting 19 the world is doomed.

I suspect if he joins you, he'd probably be up amongst the top earners at the club. He's not exactly leaving us with his ability to demand top wages diminished in any way. He's leaving for a more fair transfer fee than I would have expected for a player of his stature (despite there just being one year left on his contract), he's been one of our key performers in numerous title challenges, consistently performed in the CL, off the back of winning an international tournament (and being named as the player of that tournament), and his form at the end of the season was simply brilliant.

If that's the case the 325k Pound a week would be realistic. though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 His recent comments about leaving us if the Senegal fans want him to are fucking stupid. Just announce if you’re leaving or not, like you said you were going to do before the final. Not that I’m under any illusions that he’s staying, it’s the pissing about that annoys me.

LFCMadLad Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 If he wants to go, let him go. I'm always confident that we will replace him adequately and that he will regret leaving. Much like Wijnaldum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cicero Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 He's 30 years old. Last year of his contract. You aren't selling to a direct rival either. £21m with guaranteed bonuses is a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and there isn't guaranteed bonuses. Bayern would need to win the Champions league and that is far from a guarantee. I'm absolutely fine with Mane leaving btw... I just know how Liverpool do business and I'm 100% sure Mane won't be sold for that amount... hence why it was rejected out of hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you will negotiate more bonuses (considering we are still milking Real dry to this day for Hazard) but not so sure on the transfer fee. I think if they offer £25-30m plus a domestic and European bonus structure you'll accept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better than £21m with a champions league bonus. Still think we will end up closer to £40m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted June 6, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted June 6, 2022 Just opening negotiations, I imagine youll get closer to €40m when its all said and done but you absolutely stole Thiago and had no prolonged negotiations so Im absolutely sure that comes into play here.

Rick Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Yeah, they didn’t give us much hassle at all in the Thiago deal. They will be expecting to get something favourable in this one. Lewandowski straight swap is a fair deal . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be expecting to get something favourable in this one. Lewandowski straight swap is a fair deal . It was different circumstances when we signed Thiago though. For one he was quite injury prone and not a mainstay in the Bayern team (for some reason). Whereas Mane is never injured, is always in the first eleven and is always one of our best performers. Bayern would have never sold us Thiago for £20m for the good of their health... just to be nice. There was a reason they thought they were getting a fair price.

Rick Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I’m not saying they did it as a favour, the benefitted themselves obviously. Thiago started the champions League final in his last season with them, he was first choice in that midfield when fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - it's just opening negotiations. Why wouldn't Bayern start off trying to get him as cheap as they can reasonably ask to get him? We will probably come back to them with a price that's a bit higher than they'd be willing to pay and we'll end up meeting somewhere in the middle. The man's a legend for us and wants one last massive payday and wants to do it in a way where we get a transfer fee, I think a deal will be done where all parties (both clubs and the player) are relatively happy. Sad to see him go, but after so many years of top notch service for him... he'll be leaving with his head held high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
