Eco 875 Posted December 20, 2017 I have loved Salah since he was at Roma. Don't think it would be a smart move for him personally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Palace Fan 1,468 Posted December 20, 2017 If he continues like this it's an inevitable move really as Madrid could really use him as a merchandise tool around Arabic countries. I'm still quite surprised they didn't nab Pogba when they had the chance. There was a major tournament that summer in his home nation where he's the focal point of their midfield and his brand is arguably worth more in terms of marketability than he is worth in performances Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Putting that aside I love what Mo brings to this team and I love the fact that hes a smiling assassin with the way he goes about doing his work too. As for Real Madrid, if not them then someone else is going to come sooner rather than later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HK85 267 Posted December 20, 2017 (edited) It'll have to be through other means than shirt sales because no club has ever directly recouped what they paid for a player that way.* *according to something I read a while back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well that’s totally wrong, wherever you read it. We made massive profits on Mascherano, Alonso, Torres, Suarez etc etc. United made massive profits on Rooney and Ronaldo etc etc Chelsea made massive profits on Hazard and Drogba etc etc Arsenal with Henry, Newcastle with Shearer etc etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think Chelsea didn’t make any money from shirt sales from them signing Lampard? Something like that when a player is at a club for a long time is the only one I can see it being close to. Making money? Absolutely. To cover a transfer fee? No chance. You don't get 100% of shirt sales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have my doubts that this is true, I read the same thing as HK85. But let's say it is true. Let's not all rejoice and celebrate Saint Mo making LFC all this money.

The article explains why clubs generally don't make money on big signings through selling merchandise. Never mind after less than a season Just now, Stan said: doubt it I do too.

Burning Gold 292 Posted December 20, 2017 Clubs get very little money from individual shirt sales, the vast majority goes to the manufacturer. There are ways that a big name signing can increase revenues such as helping sell tickets, or raising the profile of the club and attracting bigger sponsorship deals, etc. but anyone who says a club has recouped a big transfer fee from shirt sales alone (especially after only a few months) is talking straight out of their arse.
