[QUOTE="weasel, post: 545857, member: 14"] Dortmund are a very easy to deal with club. You ask about a player, they tell you a price and deadline and you either pay it by then or they don't sell. Simple. They did it with Utd/Sancho last year and for some unknown reason Utd thought if they waited Dortmund would drop their asking price. They didn't. When Utd made another bid below their asking price they just pointed out the deadline had passed and that was that. If anyone asks about Haaland, Dortmund will quote them a price and probably say they want it sorted out fairly soon. They don't want **** dragging on for months. The club then pays the asking price, or pisses off. I have heard Dortmund have a few financial issues. Unlike Spanish clubs, who seem to believe in the money tree and kicking the can down the road, the German clubs are a bit better run. I would say you could buy Haaland for £80m with £20-40 in realistic add ons, depending how the £80m is paid and what the add ons are. Agreed on Mbappe. His contract is up next year and he has said, apparently, he isn't signing a new one. PSG either sell now for £100m ish or lose him for free next summer. They are an exception though, being owned by the Qatari sovereign wealth fund, money is no object. Their owners may well be happy enough to just keep him for a year and then lose him for nothing. His value will be written off in their accounts by then anyway. But football accounting is a whole different, and very boring, kettle of fish. [/QUOTE]
