Gerard Deulofeu

[Toffeepot]

yep. I don't think he can go to Barca B or be loaned either. he has to be part of their senior squad for a year

difficult to enforce one way or the other once they have him...was a weird deal from the start but maybe we'd not have got him otherwise...was really hoping he'd get another shot with us

So he would have gone regardless then

Well done Martinez for agreeing to the buy back clause. Another of his many triumphs...

I believe that Barca cannot sell him for 12 months after they take him back
If they do decide to sell we have first refusal on him
If he goes to another club we get a percentage of the fee
Not sure how much though
I remember reading this when we signed him

And ive said time and time again, I personally dont believe this is true, I think the clause expires in 5 days, after that we retain no rights to the player.

Guess we find out shortly.

Not Clownfaces fault at all, its the only way Barca would have agreed for to the deal.

But its not an issue, we arent losing a player the manager wants.

surely the opposite, if the clause expires we have full rights to the player

 

[Baines' left foot]

The only creative player out of our entire squad and the entire list of linked players. In terms of creative output he's just the level below Fabregas, De Bruyne, Hazard etc., and only 23 years old.

We've been getting by with no creativity in the squad because Lukaku puts away just about every chance. If we lose Lukaku and don't fix that then we're effed, our attack will be toothless.

It's great isn't it.

It's like some people exist in a parallel world lol

I get that some people want him to say, and to be honest I wouldn't be against it at all. But people are 'remembering' things that just didn't happen.

He reminded me of a young Diego on that wing.

If the clause expires and hes still here then yes, I believe thats the case.

I chuckled at that, great to see he is held in such low esteem still.

 

[LABlue2]

Off to fulfill his destiny as starting right winger for one of the best teams in the world. Godspeed Geri.

I'd be very surprised if this happens. Can't see Barca wanting him or Del wanting to sit on the bench for 12 months. Especially with the WC coming up and him having just worked his way into the full squad towards the end of last season.

He'll get minutes.

Not much though.

He wasn't happy with a bit part with us which is why I think he pushed for a loan in January. He'll get even less time at Barca. Even if they came in for him he'd need to agree to the move.
