Pizy 18,914 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Dortmund are one of, if not THE most savvy club in Europe. You honestly believe they'd insert a €60m release clause in the contract of one of the most sought after young players in the world? 😂😂😂 Sounds like bullshit and terrible business. He/his agent likely did insist that there's a set release clause. But it's probably like 200m. He's probably got his eyes on Real Madrid in a couple of years. killer1257 and Johnnyeye 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Not sure how reliable The Sun is, but evidently there is more discussion between the clubs about Dembele.

Brexit has nothing to do with it and won't affect 99.9% of footballers. It even days in that article that the reason is because he's never sorted a European passport.

I was not talking about Zé Luís and if you think that Brexit taking away the right of free movement for Europeans will not have an effect on footballers you need to go read up on transnational labour/immigration law why do you think it is so hard now for non EU players to get a work permit unless they can prove they are internationally recognised talents the FA also wants to cut down on the number of foreign players (the EPL is against this) and change what constitutes 'homegrown' How might Brexit affect the Premier League? https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2019/feb/14/how-might-brexit-affect-premier-league snip Brexit could mean players from EU and European Economic Area countries are subject to the same, visa and work permit restrictions as players from countries outside the EU, making the criteria for signing players stricter and making it harder for teams to trade. snip numpty Little Englanders who voted Leave just assumed the EU would bend over like a bish (pro tip, it isn't happening) and also never took into account so many consequences on so many facets of British life itself (including football) of course maybe you side with Colin Neil Warnock on Brexit: 'I can't wait to leave.

King Kante 1,643 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Imo Brexit is very unlikely to affect transfers because the UK government appears to want to move to a points based immigration policy. This esstentially means poor immigrants get locked out (unless they are in industries with dire needs) and rich immigrants get in and it is easy £££££ for the government. No way, do the UK make it difficult for a PL player to come and play here as they make too much money off of them. Argue all you want about Brexit and immigration but rest assured, the UK will allow in as many multi-millionaires that pay tax as they can get. killer1257 and Muzchap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
