ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

It’s not like it’s an obscure number, oh he’s number 318, or even 8+1 like zamorano.

He’s been given 19 ?

Litterally wvery professional team has assigned this number

Time was I couldn't stand Liam (always been in the Noel camp), but I have to say I'm warming to the guy more and more...

Over £15m mate.

They bought him for £7.25m.
Bought at 24. Now 27.
Played some league 2 sides in the cups and played 5 mins here and there in sewn up league games.
4 goals in 30.
Sold for over £15m. More than doubled their money on an abject failure.

It's a bit more complex though.

When buying from Leipzig, normally fees to agent, player etc is normally substantial (easily be 5m+). So the fee is likely to be closer to 15m.

Paid him 60k basic, but he will be priced in on the squad bonuses, so again over those 3 years probably 20m in wages.

If the 17m they've got. Will be a 10% sell on for RB so that's down to 15m. 10% to player for loyalty payment, so thats down to 13m. Probably paying the agent 20% as well, so take another 3m off.

The payment will largely be incentivised as well, so seeing next to nothing up front after the fees are paid out. Doesnt make a great headline though.

Of all the guff that is on that post the biggest is the hashtag at the bottom '#Liverpoolarethebest'.

It is like something that a 6 year old ends an argument with, no we are the bestest in al the world [cries while running home to his mum and telling her that all the kids are being mean and saying nasty things about Liverpool].

They definitely are living in the happy world of Haribo

The concept is good, but I don't think you can claim they are paying the agent fees for both buying and selling

When dealing with RB franchise youd be surprised mate.

CBA. Doing the maths, but his transfer fee, on top of the wages he’s had, and going to get must add up.

@EverTheOptimist can you help hun?x

Apparently its less than £400k per wk but heavily incentivised should he hit certain numbers.

Well at least we can be thankful for the RS loving media for burying the story of Richy leaving.
Small mercies.

350k p/w for a 30 year old ?

 

[Toffe3m4n]

£350k a week ?

They desperately want a fee for him next summer, don't they?

Did I dream it, but wasnt it rumoured that Van One Leg has a contract that guarantees he is their highest earner? Serious coin for him if so.
