@ColePalmer_CFC7@MadridXtra LaLiga has a rule where all players need to have a release clause.
If you put a 500m clause on a player then you aren’t breaking LaLiga’s rules, and your player isn’t at risk of getting bought out.
However, Barca is free to accept an 80m bid for a player with a 500m clause.
@ColePalmer_CFC7@MadridXtra If a team offers 500m for Alvarez then Atletico have to accept. That will never happen though.
Atletico can accept any transfer offer below the release clause. A release clause doesn’t trap a player at a club.
@ColePalmer_CFC7@MadridXtra Atletico do not want 500m for him. LaLiga has a rule where players need to have a release clause, so Spanish clubs will set it to a ridiculous amount like €1 billion.
@29Idek@fcb_lisco@Atleti Atletico is a direct local rival of Real Madrid and is consistently in the top 3.
The point is that Barca and Real use dirty tactics to maintain the hierarchy of the Spanish division and have failed to bully Atletico into selling Alvarez
