I agree. Clearly off somewhere else, but don't blame Barca either as they know they can sell for a profit.

Quite small time for them if they're just going to sell him on for a small profit. Being one of the richest clubs in the world and all.
 

I think Barca are getting so much stick for letting Sandro leave without even offering him a deal, they had to be seen to be trying to get Del Boy back, he is seen by the fans as "one of their own"
 

Good riddance Deulofeu. WTF do Milan and Barcelona know? We dont want your skills here, we've got Bolasie and Lookman.
 
I dont think he had much of a say in it. It sounds like they have re-purchased his contract, which is why there is only 2 years left. Dont think he can reject it tbh.

Cant see him getting much game time there though, has not been that outstanding for the U21's. Think the manager may want a look at him in pre-season before making a decision. We get a chunk of any sale though so we may make more £££ if they flog him.
 
My take on what's going on.

We don't want and are looking to sell.
Barca don't want him but are looking to make a quick buck.

We could sell him for 15m and be done with it. Barca buy him back for 10m and they sell him for the 15m and give us half the profit.
Barca have basically made 2,5m for nothing. Also pound is weak at the moment which may make it better all round for Barca to do the selling (if it works like that selling in euros).

They'll be paying his wages for a year which will take up a massive chunk of that 2.5m. ( if not all)
 

The fact that this will be the 5th season in last 6 where he'll be starting a pre season with a different team to who he's ended the previous season with tells its own story.
 
I'm quite soft and sentimental about Geri. I think both he and Ross need a bit more time to mature, and with also immature Rom as a focal point, did not do as well as they could have. One more year of them three working together, or with one senior pro in there, I think it would be a scary front 3 Ross, Rom and Geri, with of course Klassen, Schneiderlin and Idrissa behind

Goodbye Geri...

Thanks for the sporadic displays of fantastic ability Ged. I'm sure you'll find a manager happy to let you stroll around for 75 minutes somewhere.

Have to be happy with a profit on a player Koeman doesn't want.
