Why do we never talk about this sort of stuff? So much murky shit has come out over the last few years, but none of the City aggregators, podders, or big accounts go anywhere near any of it. Is it healthy for a fanbase to just amplify positive news and ignore all the bad stuff?
New.
Qnet, an official partner of Manchester City since 2014, has been implicated in human trafficking investigations, and faces ongoing allegations that it is a Ponzi scheme which contributes to suicide and financial ruin.

@MWeaver72139842@DalaiPalmerMCR There's simply no truth to the story. The terms of the deal were a €5m down payment, €10m per summer in 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026, and a potential €10m in performance-related add-ons, so it's right that Barca have paid €15m so far. Completely made up.
Our best XI by the end of 23/24 will be at least five players different from our best XI when we won the treble. Cancelo will win his place back, Alvarez will play every week, Foden will be pulling the strings, Grealish will have been dropped, Phillips will be playing a lot more.
@Citizen_baker Because the funds simply aren't yet due. The agreement was €5m down payment, €10m per summer in 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026, and a potential €10m in add-ons. It's a nothing story.
@city_rabin @FodenCTID I don't think it is. If memory serves the deal was only €5m upfront, €10m each summer each subsequent year, and a potential €10m of add-ons, so it would tally that we've so far received €15m.
@simon_hand@Newhayparis@koryloco97 Nobody found him innocent. That isn't how it works. Your lack of knowledge of even the very basics of the legalities is problematic in the least.
@lloyd_scragg We'd be mad to spend big this summer for what will most likely be Guardiola's last season. Summer 2024 will be a big reset, imho. Also think the £300m thing is a massive red herring. A quarter of that we already owe to Barclays, and (guessing) maybe a quarter will be bonuses.
