o nosso capitão

he’s still young, not like he can’t reinvent himself.

I believe we wanted him last year but even Real Madrid did not want him to sign permanently and wanted a loan with no buy option, which we refused.

you couldn’t be more wrong about number 2 Jesus christ.

portuguese clubs operate on a loss and have huge debts to pay, operational costs, academy infrastructure to invest in and most importantly, since they do not have the same money other clubs haver from TV rights or sponsorships, they NEED - not choose - to sell their best players for lots of money or else they do not stay competitive and go to financial hell. In addition to all that, taxes are not very friendly as every club needs to pay approximately 40/50% for every wage they pay.

you clearly do not know what you’re talking about sorry.

as things stand we’ll sign Prestianni and Malheiro from Velez and Boavista respectively and João Victor will leave in January. not bad but that CL money will hurt us when buying in January, our midfield still lacks depth imo.

I agree, people in charge are the ones who allowed this to happen in the first place. now it’s a big mess with clubs being in financial doping all over Europe.

and all it took was just billions of ”””sponsor””” money, truly the underdogs of modern football.

of course he expects that, if he didn’t his head would literally roll off his body.

sounds like a Lebron shitpost tbh lmaooo

multi-club ownership is a fucking scourge, FIFA brought this to themselves and now deal with it.

now that the effects are palpable, finding a solution will be harder with so much multi club groups and even if a solution was found loopholes were bound to be felt anyway.
