So that's nothing new then. We've known we'd have to pay his release clause for weeks now.

Talk about Football Manager mentality - as if 5M is small change.

Agree

Also if you give in to Florintina demands then other teams will bully us in negotiation.

With the exception of the Willian deal we have payed very reasonably.

Latest rumor has United back in for him offering a bunch of money + Januzaj on loan.

Is 'activating' the release clause the same as paying the clause amount or does it further attract additional taxes on top? I know that paying the release clause for someone registered in Spain will also obligate you to an additional 40% tax ... what's the case in Italy?

I think the Spanish reason for tax is because the player deposits the cash himself isnt it?

If they reckon they wont sell for anything lower than the release clause, unlikely

Yer something along those lines ... I remember reading all this around the time we got Costa

Apparently Fiorentina wanted Salah on the deal but Salah does not want to go there, so we have to buy the clause now.

SKY: @acffiorentina agree to sell Juan Cuadrado to @ChelseaFC if £26.2m buy-out clause is met.

Looks Like today is deadline day after all

I think we could do with him we do need a Right winger

I'm not so sure we're going to bring anyone in now, i could see Salah and Schurrle staying until the summer.

The closer it gets to the deadline the more I'm starting to feel the same. Though Schürrle being totally out of the squad for the last couple of matches would be strange if we weren't at least trying to move him.

They don't get enough game time because they just can't deliver at the moment so maybe we do need a change but we do need new blood in our team.

That is nonsense. They have no say in the matter if the buyout is met.
