Village Idiot Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Aruna Koné, Levante's top goalscorer with 17, has a clause written in his loan contract that forces him to go back to Sevilla if he scores 18 goals. He doesn't want to go back there, and Levante don't want to lose him. However, there are still 4 games to play and Levante is 3 points away from a CL spot. Interesting conundrum. What a strange clause My wording was off... he finishes contract with Sevilla this season and has agreed to sign with Levante. However, if he scored 18 goals, an automatic extension would kick in. He doesn't want to go back there, but Sevilla would love to use his excellent season to get a good fee for him. He's been "injured" the past few games.

Village Idiot Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 The bank that was supposed to finance the deal is on the verge of collapse. s*** luck all over, really. Ouch. To be frank, I don't think there's a single bank in Valencia that hasn't collapsed or is in the verge of doing it (real state crash has been *massive* there), I don't think they had much chance of choosing well Hope they can pull through, however, there's already talk of another round of star-player selling (Alba to us, Soldado to PSG) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 The bank that was supposed to finance the deal is on the verge of collapse. s*** luck all over, really. Ouch. And after writing this, the bank was nationalized yesterday No word yet if this will scupper the deal the bank had with Valencia for the sale of Mestalla and the refinancing on their debt. But the fact that the club has remained silent after the inquiries of some minor shareholders is a bit worrying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Incidentally, the same bank is the one that loaned RM the money for Cronaldo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 They hadn't even started IIRC, all payments were deferred comfortably. Because of the nationalization of the bank, incidentally, now the Real Madrid loan has been transferred to the ECB, according to some reports Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 What's the beef between them two? in 2010, Mallorca qualified for the EL through the league. Villarreal put up a complaint in front of UEFA, since Mallorca owed some transfer monies to Bilbao, and prevented them from being certified for European competition. The slot, of course, went to Villarreal instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 There are far worse teams too. Rossi's injury hurt them badly but still, they had too much quality for that. Still think that Lotina was a terrible appointment. His style didn't fit the squad at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
