Thomas Partey

[Santi Claus]

"In October 2016 the laws were changed, with the buyout fee advances to the players no longer subject to tax, meaning only the fee itself had to be paid."

According to wiki for anyone wondering if tax was still required for La Liga release clauses.

I'm craving this guy in our midfield. I hate our midfield ffs.

 

[<<reed>>]

Can't believe some people still think Arsenal might buy Partey

Yep, no way this happens...we really have no ****ing money.

 

[Malky]

So, with this looking dead in the water , who's the back-up?

Thats an awful bump. Do you hate the rest of us?

Yeah according to Spanish contract law expert @Rex Banter we're ****ed.

And we've loaned out Torreira so (whether you rate Lucas or not) we've gotten weaker as a squad. This is a make or break moment for the new regime imo.

 

[GDeep™]

If we don’t sign him now then this is over. By next summer he’ll be 28 and it probably won’t make sense for us pick him up.

Shambles that we've done Atletico a favour with Torreira but we still won't get Partey.

As good as Aouar is, A Xhaka, Elneny, Aouar midfield won't be winning the midfield in a big game. Partey was that guy we were missing.

Imagine being Partey. Being stuck at 0-0 Atleti for life.

 

[Highbury_2006]

I can understand the Torreira deal in itself but the fact that they get a quality player for basically nothing while refusing to discuss Partey ("Pay the clause!" is not a discussion) is annoying as fvck

 

[al-Ustaadh]

Just pay the ****ing clause.

 

[Highbury_2006]

The only positive outcome if Partey doesnt join us is that AFCBell will get a lot of hate and lose followers.

Charity fc at new lows, giving Atletico a player we could have possibly sold to use as funds for Partey. Bullied.

That's not even my issue there, but rather that we spent 3 weeks to get that deal which we could've gotten back then already.

It's probably already too late to get the intermediares stuff done to do so - trusting @Rex Banter on that one.

I guess time's run out.
Hard to see an alternative for him on the market, at least not one that would highly excite me.

If I’m honest think this is Atletico sh*thousing to make sure Thomas stays.

Probably drag the Torreira and Herrera deals out until Monday before confirming.

Hopefully we do one back and the day before just give them 50 million Euros. They can't do anything if the clause is met.

But how, I don't think us buying Partey depends on Atletico taking Torreira on a loan without obligation to buy.

For that matter, they would even more likely do so afterwards. This only applied to a deal for torreira in which we would've at least gotten an obligation.

I’m guessing we can’t really plan until Torreira is out of the squad due to spaces and wages.
