And to top it off... PSG are going to avoid FFP because Neymar will sign a £200m commercial deal out in Qatar which technically means that it'll be HIM rather than the CLUB paying the crazy fee!!1
-
I don't actually mind this transfer fee as it is just the ridiculous Spanish buy out clause that is being met for the 3rd best player in the world, 50m for Sigurdsson etc still seems more mental to me.
Does make a mockery of FFP though.0 -
Wow. That's a lot of xenophobia in one post!14

Crazy to think that a year ago the world record fee was set at 89m and now we have a fee that's going to break the record by over 100m!
PSG are crazy to pay it and i think Neymar is crazy to leave as leaving Barca for the French league has to be a step down. Can't help but feel Barca come out of this stronger by spending the money on 2-3 world class players. Interested to see if this triggers off a transfer merry go round.
Be funny if he gets injured early in the season though.2 -
How much will his agent (dad) get..
Madness really - at some point the bubble will burst I feel but not anytime soon.0 -
Mental money that usually only gets spent when I cheat at Football Manager10

It's a buyout clause in his contract. Doesn't this mean neymar doesn't actually get a choice?Chris_from_Sidcup said:Crazy to think that a year ago the world record fee was set at 89m and now we have a fee that's going to break the record by over 100m!

He can't be forced to join, I think there could be a few legal issues with that! It just allows PSG to talk to him.JoshAddick said:

Of course he gets a choice, you can't force a player to sign for anyoneJoshAddick said:

Not sure this is true. If Qatar pay him that then surely he has to declare it as an income and pay 50% tax on it? Although admittedly footballers aren't too clever at paying their taxes!!ForeverAddickted said:And to top it off...

wrong with what i said? nothing.
the qatar world cup is corrupt everyone knows that, unless youve been living under a rock. have you?
so care to explain your comment? or was it aimed at someone else?
and of course the usual crowd have reacted to it, very sad, not everything on here has to be glossed over by the pc brigade, getting offended on behalf of everyone.

He doesn't live in Qatar though, so won't he pay tax based on him living/working in Paris?Pedro45 said:

My biggest issue with these fees it is that I liked Football Manager when you could dip and dive around, £3/4m here and there on a few players - £8m blowout on a 30y.o. Wesley Schneider.shine166 said:Mental money that usually only gets spent when I cheat at Football Manager
Don't really care in real life, it's stupid - but it's kind of interesting. 'Real' football, the kind where you'd catch Derek Hales in the pub after the game died a long long time ago, we're just watching people kick around the corpse - it's sad but oddly entertaining.2 -
WTF do La Liga have to do with it? Weird.0

You set up Neymar Public Appearances Ltd in Qatar
They charge the Qatari owners of PSG £200million for misc services, maybe a public appearance by Neymar
Neymar is paid an appearance fee for some press party in Qatar, say £2million, by NPA Limited
NPA Limited pay Barcelona £198 million to free him from his contract
Neymar signs for PSG on a "free transfer"
NPA have made 0 profits, no tax there
Neymar has made £2million for working an evening in Qatar, possibly no tax there, minimal if there is any
Transfer is all paid in full, nobody's paid any tax and it's all technically legal and above board2 -
But if it's that simple to get around then why aren't the likes of Abramovich and Sheikh Mansour or any other multi billionaire owner doing the same and building super teams with £100m+ players in every positionrandy andy said:

Listen to this one then; you open a company called the Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club. You take an advert in the back page of some gay mag, advertising the latest in arse-intruding dildos, sell it a bit with, er... I dunno, "does what no other dildo can do until now", latest and greatest in sexual technology. Guaranteed results or money back, all that bollocks. These dills cost twenty-five each; a snip for all the pleasure they are going to give the recipients. They send a cheque to the company name, nothing offensive, er, Bobbie's Bits or something, for twenty-five. You put these in the bank for two weeks and let them clear. Now this is the clever bit. Then you send back the cheques for twenty-five pounds from the real company name, Arse Tickler's Faggot Fan Club, saying sorry, we couldn't get the supply from America, they have sold out. Now you see how many of the people cash those cheques; not a single soul, because who wants his bank manager to know he tickles arses when he is not paying in cheques!9 -

Although I didn't find your post to be particularly xenophobic in this instance (which is unusual!). The Emirate states are using football as a tool to help improve the perception of their lands (they're hoping we don't think about the ill-effects of Sharia law when we're marveling at Neymar in a 'Fly Emirates' shirt), as they look to a long-term future post-oil. They don't particularly care about football, they certainly don't care about the long-term economic harm they might be causing the sport, and certainly don't care about affecting the pyramid structure that we get to enjoy.
Sheikh Mansour, who basically owns Abu Dhabi, has at least done a lot of good for Manchester, set up a world class academy and I believe has had a positive impact in the community as a result, so it's not all bad.
But I believe he, along with the others, will eventually change the structure of the current footballing league set-up, and that's why I wish they'd fuck off.1 -
Report now say that Barcelona confirm Neymar has asked to leave the club.
This really is crazy.. and a complete joke at that too. Almost £200million, no wonder some people despise football.0
