either way that's a lot of corn.Canal+ reported it as €60m + €20m bonuses.
€30m in transfer bonuses is what we currently account for our whole squad.+€10m if he plays at least 25 games this season with ManU
+€10m if he gets more than 10 caps for the french NT as a ManU player
+€10m if he can be rated in the top 20 of the Ballon d'or as a ManU player
Think we got our wires crossed.forgot, sorry, arsenal
Martial did cost €50m + €30m bonuses. And if you are interested to know exactly, the various bonuses are ;
+€10m if he plays at least 25 games this season with ManU
+€10m if he gets more than 10 caps for the french NT as a ManU player
+€10m if he can be rated in the top 20 of the Ballon d'or as a ManU player
So realistically he's going to cost €70m. Maybe €80m but that's not expected before several years.
Cruyff to Dumbarton not far off either!Michael Essien to Burnley the oddest one on that list.
