60 million release clause at Dortmund
Think his agent gets to scoop some of it, hence the reason Man Utd pulled out of signing him.He does have a low minimum release clause at his last few clubs. A route we can go down?

I absolutely hate agents, but Manchester United should maybe have bitten the bullet with this one, the lad seems to be the real deal.
OGS obviously wanted him but perhaps crumbled at resistance from within the Old Trafford corridors.
If Alex Ferguson had wanted a player, would he have allowed this to be a stumbling block?
Ah yes, I think I heard his name mentioned on Talksport and that he was persona non grata at United.It would never have happened under Ferguson as he would have had to deal with Mino Raiola.
He punted Pogba because he was represented by that, in Ferguson's view, "shitebag" and refused to do business with him.
Surely not, did he not just sign for more than that?60 million release clause at Dortmund
Think the agent pocketed 10 million of that, even more from his next move likely. Some debut for himIgnore previous post, 20 Million apparently. What a bargain.
Sure United we’re talking about 80 odd!
That’s exactly what I thought. Stats are interesting (I never used to pay any attention) but 13 shots on target, 8 goals. Seems quite a high ratio but I’m no expert.Man Utd fans will be beeling.
Mental, you could easily see him going for the £60m release clause if he shows he can do it in the bundesliga. Tidy £40m profitIgnore previous post, 20 Million apparently. What a bargain.

Potentially up against McKenna and Declan Gallagher in a Euro 2020 Play off lol
Ferguson utterly despises most agents so probably.I absolutely hate agents, but Manchester United should maybe have bitten the bullet with this one, the lad seems to be the real deal.

Mental that I think that's cheap.60 million release clause at Dortmund
Sure it was 22.5 million mateMental that I think that's cheap.
How much he go for?
Alfie will go for more than that mateHe was the top young talent in Europe. I'm amazed he's went for around 20M.
I want more than that for Alfie.
Yes, but there really isn't much leverage to do business nowadays without agents being involved.Ferguson utterly despises most agents so probably.
1st was a peach.
The other 2 were laid on a plate by players who could have scored themselves, one way to increase value.
Bizarre that he went to Dortmund for a relatively modest fee when he was the most talked about young player in Europe.
Some clubs will have been scared off by the ghastly thought of "limited profit" and their ego's couldn't allow themselves to sign him. His agent and dad got a good chunk of cash from Dortmund on top of his transfer fee so the total deal is around 40m with a release clause of 60Still surprised Dortmund got him.What a signing.
The amount his dad and Raiola got is damn near the amount of his Salzburg release clause, some clubs wont want to do too much business with Raiola if they have a choice and as i said on another post, ego's get in the way, only getting around 20 million profit for a player like him will have some of the big boys not wanting him if it comes with a release clause. Same reason some clubs would rather spend 50-60 million on a player than taking a punt on him for 15-20 million when he's playing in a worse leagueBizarre that he went to Dortmund for a relatively modest fee when he was the most talked about young player in Europe.
