Do La Liga not HAVE to have release clauses in their contract? Which means it's commonplace for players to have silly amounts as their "release clause". Meaning it's never going to be met.
But aye...."silly money in football", "wasn't like this in my day".....bla bla bla
The money in the modern game has turned me away from most football. I only follow Rangers. I find the figures disgusting.
I've heard the "but it's a short career!" argument but 15+ years at the wages they earn dwarfs what we will all earn in a life time of work. Hope it all goes tits up asap.
Everyone used to think Spanish release clauses were nonsense years ago, then psg went and offered 200million for neymar and fucked it
717 million quid might seam a fantasy figure, but so was 200 million 10 years ago.
