EskWeston 696 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 An interesting player, and yes with Essien out it could be the perfect signing for us. One that will not cost a fortune but has a lot of potential... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Actually if Barcelona is selling it means he is not that good.Barcelona sold Fabregas and Pique because there were 'not that good' as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 1,468 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Think they were poached by Arsenal and ManU as their contracts were running out. Not that it matters Henrique's point was too simplistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 His buyback is 8 million Euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe 10,861 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I don't understand. If he turns out good, then in 2013 barca can just hand in 8M € and get him back? Seems like a lose-lose situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a lose-lose situationStrange, isn't it? Suppose he plays very well and Barca hand in 8 million, then we are contractually bound to accept the bid. It still remains upto the player whether to accept Barca's contract though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheva. 5,373 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 Barca can buy back Bojan from Roma in 2 years for 13m (after selling him for 12m) but Roma can block that by paying 28m.We should be able to block him from leaving too.... hopefully not for a stupid price like Bojan though.

If Roma wants to block the Bojan's transfer back to Barca, they need to pay + 28 ? So the whole transfer fee would be 13 + 28 = 41 mil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall 315 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 This better not happen. I don't want to sign a player to have for 2 years unless he's shit in which case we get to keep him for as long as we want. How fucking desperate are we as a club if we are striking deals like that?

Styles 9,790 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 From what I've gathered it isn't a buy-back clause it's a first-refusal clause i.e. if we decide to sell Barcelona have to be his first option. Now this is just what I've read on a few sites so it might not be accurate but it makes far more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teignman 441 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 "Spanish sources also claim that Barca will have a clause in the deal inserted which will allow them to buy highly-rated Romeu back in the summer of 2013." - Sky SportsIf that's true, this is a real crock of shit. What would be the point? Maybe we catch lightning in a bottle for two seasons with him and he's fantastic. Even so he goes back to Barca most likely on the cheap. I sincerely hope that we only include a first refusal clause at most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
