🚨🔵 Chelsea statement on Enzo Maresca case ends with a line on Xabi Alonso. 🇪🇸
“Looking forward to next season, in Xabi Alonso, we have a Manager who has an exceptional football mind and is a professional of the highest integrity”.
“He has all the attributes to deliver the success the Club’s supporters deserve and expect”.
🚨 JUST IN: IF Chelsea lose Enzo Fernandez, Xabi Alonso would like to have a player like Aurelien Tchouameni.
Alonso was DELIGHTED with Tchouameni in Real Madrid. @latigoserrano
Starlink is reportedly considering launching a direct-to-cell (direct-to-device) mobile service. If it becomes a reality and gets approved in Ghana, it could force MTN to lower data prices and improve its network to stay competitive. Hopefully ASAP 🔥
I like how Real Madrid handled Nico Paz's situation. It's business, even though Como will feel offended.
But look at it this way: Real Madrid never wanted to sell Paz outright. If they had loaned him to Como, they would have paid loan fees for two years before he returned to Real Madrid.
Instead, Real sold him for a low fee (€6m) and inserted a higher buy-back fee (€9m) in the contract. So, if Como develops him, they will get a €3m reward for a job well done.
This method is a glorified loan deal, but it rewards the club that develops him. If it were a loan, Como would have lost money and still sent him back.
The way I see Nico Paz, even at Como, is that he's a Real Madrid player. It's as simple as that. The only way Real Madrid won't activate that clause is if the boy didn't improve and surpass the buy-back value.
They use this method a lot. There is nothing wrong with it. It's Como that got carried away as if Paz was their player. They used him for two seasons and will get a €3m reward. That's better than a normal loan deal.
The boys all dey struggle send money back home. I come here ibi Seevcash Idey take send money to my people in Ghana. Anyways SeevCash giveaway soon !🇬🇭🫵🏽😂
