The College Dropout Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Mbappe is in the same position as Kane was 2 years ago. It's more of a "is he really this good? Is this his level?" Obviously Mbappe is younger and has done it on a bigger stage. If he's the real deal as it seems and he'll just get stronger and faster - he's worth 100m in this climate.

Zero Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 No, 178M. IMO the real deal is Dembele, not Mbappe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but they are reportedly asking 160m I don't see how you don't go for Coutinho and Dybala rather than M'Bappé. Even if they'd cost you a bit above what Neymar returned those two would improve you, unlike M'Bappé who would be a step down for now and with the potential of being an improvement if he reaches his absolute ceiling.

Flip Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Seems like Neymar's agent has in a way confirmed that Neymar will be paying the release clause himself meaning Santos won't get anything as it's not considered a sale. They'll be missing out on near £10m because of this. So I'd guess Barcelona will be happy with this arrangement as well? Santos are truly getting fucked here once again.

The long game here is to revise the release clause system entirely. It's pretty significant that La Liga is refusing payment for one, even if they will get overruled by UEFA.
