8 million gross or net? If it is the former, then that is considerably less than what ADM peeps wanted. If it's the latter, well, **** me.

No, rybolovlev had that nasty divorce, and he is not going to dump money into monaco like the qatari are doing with PSG.
PSG are essentially a club financed by a whole country, the ambition is not the same.
Monaco are looking for solid young players with potential to build something for the long term. Dont expect anything lavish and big names coming down there.
I see.Bad news for OM and Ligue Un as a whole.

Re: Official: James Rodriguez to Real Madrid
When they offer you 70 mil for a player just because of WC hype and that hasn't shown anywhere near that level over the past year (James is Verratti level right now), then you take it.S wrote:Yohan Modric wrote:Cerci was linked to them recently.

In any case, they are after Bernard, Draxler, Lavezzi (if available), Pastore (if available), Rodrigo, etc. They will buy 2-3 players without a doubt. All the money is going right back into the team unlike poverty outfits like Juve.
Monaco actually gets better by selling James. As a Madrid fan, it's frustrating that we got duped by the WC hype. But as a Ligue 1 fan, it's fine. Actually going to upgrade the talent on the team as a result.
Only reason Monaco took the sale is because it was too good to refuse and the end game is going to be better for them.

I don't think he's on 8 million but even it were it would mean he took a pay cut if I'm not mistaken.
Also, paying James 8 million cheaper than paying Di Maria 8 million.

If it's 6.5 then that might explain why the club felt this was reasonable.

Re: Official: James Rodriguez to Real Madrid
I can not think of any logic behind this signing. If they have so much money why not give it to poor or develop talent in 3rd world countries.
In the future ppl will forget these signings they will remember clubs doing good for football.

Re: Official: James Rodriguez to Real Madrid
please dont bring out that image rights BS. how much we pay player needs to translate on the pitch. Last season Di Maria was good enough to be man of the match in CL final, let's see how good James can play for us with his big wages.

To an extent yes, but return on investment is a real thing. Paying James big money will be cheaper in the long run.
As for on pitch performances we'll have to wait an see but I know for a fact that there were games where Di Maria did not look like a 9 million a year net player, some of them were even last season.

i dont know where you live but every young adult with a job and parents with kids pays those 70€ to support the club and get the official jersey
china makes profit out of basketball jerseys which are better than the official imo (i hate those 2cm tails they put on every jersey smh)

Re: Official: James Rodriguez to Real Madrid
you care about return on investment or silverware?
let me ask this? what does an 8 mil player look like? because that's according to Di Marzio what he wanted.
isnt an 8 mil player someone that shows up in big games and makes a difference? someone that can slay barca, atletico in cup finals, in champions league final? someone that when no one else in the team is responding can with his own ability turn a game around?
or is it someone who looks fashionable because he can sell shirt and looks good?
please tell me

Re: Official: James Rodriguez to Real Madrid
sadly thats the difference, di maria is a player with bad sportsmanship that doesnt have the looks of a superstar.
james is the opposite. a true superstar. its a shame we went for the materialistic player instead of the true footballer but thats the football era we live in now

My friend have you ever been to columbia?
90% of those people are going to go to the flea market buy a ronaldo, james, bale value deal for like 40$ and maybe stop by the movie section and buy some bootleg while there at it.

I'm all for proper wealth disparity but you're asking a football club, a privately own football club to give out money. Their revenue stream is but a drop in a bucket when compared to the real money makers in this world. If I were to ask (demand) for proper assistance to countries that aren't too wealthy, it would be them and not a Spanish club.
I understand Z's optimism but at the same time, this transfer really is not necessary...if it pans out of course. Luckily, the little Italian boy in Carlo knows football really well. Hopefully he could figure something out.

Why can't we have both?
James is a good player and it's not like we can't win trophies without Di Maria.
There's no need to be upset about it, the fact is the marketable signing you are complaining about is probably the reason you are a Madridista in the first place.
Also lol at Di Maria slaying Barca and Atleti. Without Ramos and Bale we wouldn't have won chit.

my friend is colombia the only country we are going to sell his jersey in? james is the next international superstar, he will get the same treatment özil got for us. he has it all, superstar passes and superstar goals.
his name and looks will also help, im 99% we are going to see someone wear a james 10 jersey on worldstarhiphop oneday he is going to blow up in america and worldwide. can already see it
