French-German politician Daniel Cohn-Bendit believes there will be massive changes to the transfer market when sport returns after the coronavirus outbreak subsides

 

A former member of the European Parliament has predicted that football players will be worth a fraction of their former values due to the coronavirus pandemic.

 

Daniel Cohn-Bendit, a member of French political party Europe Ecology - The Greens, believes superstars such as Kylian Mbappe could be worth as little as €40m (£35m) after the outbreak subsides.

 

The Paris Saint-Germain star is arguably the most valuable player in world football and has been linked with a £250m move to Liverpool or Real Madrid. So, if Cohn-Bendit’s prediction is correct, Mbappe will be worth a staggering £215m less than this valuation, losing 86% of his value.

 

And the French-German politician predicts further changes to the Beautiful Game, including the introduction of a salary cap

“This crisis will clean up the irrationality of professional sport. It’s like there was a nuclear attack and it had to be rebuilt, but on other grounds,” Cohn-Bendit told French newspaper Ouest-France.

 

“Tomorrow, Mbappe will cost at most €35-40m and no longer €200m. And who can buy him?

 

“There will be de facto regulation. Going even further on a salary cap could be necessary. It is a reorganisation that goes not only through the players' salaries, but also through the right to images and publicity.

“We have to break the system of managers, of those who do business.”

 

Cohn-Bendit believes these sweeping changes would improve sport and help it return to its core values ahead of the Tokyo Olympics - which have been postponed until next summer - and the Paris games in 2024.

 

“A little more sobriety is enough for me,” he added. “A little more sobriety and a little more equality would be a good start. Footballers will not play worse if they are paid less.

 

“Whenever there is a referendum on the Olympic Games, people always say 'no'. Today, people watch the Olympics but don't want that at home.

 

“It is necessary to rethink the gigantism of the Olympic Games and to return to more simplicity. How? I don’t know. It depends on us, the fans.”

Depends how ruthless they want to be do they just rip up contracts for players such as elliott and colback and loan out anyone else even if it means supplementing their wages indefinitely.

 

As I have said before the entire squad to me depending on budget is expendable, obviously noises now are its not a spent a billion building an elite squad its a slower burn which makes sense we dont have any european football/champions league yet so why spent 100 million a player to get that sort in when its not needed *yet.

 

Some of the plodders need to go but will not attract much in terms of revenue.

 

We need a striker or 2 now, left back and right back, central midfielder (who can score) and thats probably 200 million right there.

Come on then, going off Amanda's first bid numbers, we've got £100m to spend over the first two windows. You can add what you generate to the budget.

 

Who do you buy and sell?

I thought it was 200 million including infrastructure improvements.

 

£200m is the figure they gave to the Premier League, as part of the "fit and proper test" to get their purchase of the club approved.

 

Lets put it this way . . . "they are very, very, unlikely to be planning to restrict themselves to that arbitrary figure".

 

It was just given because they needed to give a figure, it is meaningless !!!

If villa go down we've got to take a closer look at Grealish. Seems our kind of player. I'd also hope we'd join the chase for Bellingham. But above all else we need a striker. I'd be happy going back for Rondon under Rafa with Joelinton playing a sub role and concentrate on other areas of the squad. Willems perm and possibly another rose loan to top it off. Need to sell all our right backs and buy one which is decent.

 

So much work to be done. You could spend £500-600m and still have room to improve.

 

Baby steps in the right direction, that's all we need for now.

Premier league will be hoping this takeover stimulates the player market. It couldn't have come at a better time and why they won't reject it. It was approved the minute it landed on their doorstep but are going through the motions to seem like it's something worthwhile.
