joeyt Posted February 7, 2024 Share Posted February 7, 2024 Yeah they're owned by The Right to Dream academy in Ghana so they get first dibs on their players. Kudus, Damsgard, Emre Mor, Adingra, Sulemena have all come through in recent years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I despise it, and hope we don’t ever get involved with the ‘MCO’ horseshit for precisely the reasons you’ve outlined. Same goes for ‘feeder’ clubs. Royal Antwerp just won the Belgian league, but they’re still viewed as a ‘feeder’ club for Man Utd. It’s fucking abysmal. Our partnership with Antwerp ended over 10 years ago.

Doctor Zaius Posted February 7, 2024 Share Posted February 7, 2024 The Savio transfer was reported as him being bought by the City Football Group in 2022 and assigned to Troyes. Loaned to Girona in 2023 and now Man City have bought him back, probably way, way under market value. The whole thing is rancid. City have and continue to be allowed to run amok and now have a global hegemony on football. Hope they win the next few PL's and CL's at a canter and show the football world up.

Monters Posted February 7, 2024 Share Posted February 7, 2024 There was a report this morning (possibly Telegraph) saying City would have to prove Fair Market Value but I only paid attention to the headline but yep nothing of the intensity of our made up Saudi deals Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, MCO is absolutely rancid and such a clever way to subvert any rules. But ultimately you either have to join in or be left behind these are choices your left with. It’s quite clear since RBFC were allowed to have two clubs play in Europe the rule book was basically thrown out. It’s another one of those things which makes me wonder what our own strategy is as we’ve been passive good little rule takers to date. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teslact Posted February 7, 2024 Share Posted February 7, 2024 This and buying players and loaning abroad instantly because they can't get work permits yet just seem to be as bad as third party ownership (which was rightly banned). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
