The result is the same. But the reason and the emphasis is very different.
That's precisely how papers / talkbrick etc. spin stories in order to sensationalise them.

I think Dembele would be a good Modric replacement. M'Villa from what I understand is a totally different prospect.
I think we can be confident Moutinho wants to come, so no issue on the players front (comments recently and early in the summer suggest as much)
The Times reported today Moutinho was available for £24m, with Modrics sale well within our reach.
I dont know it thats an assumed paper talk value, or his release clause.
His release was reported early in the summer as £31m, if that were € it would equate roughly to the £24m.
Leaves me thinking its £31m or €31m, not sure which. Either is achievable with the Modric money, so it would just depend on our appetite for the player.

I keep browsing on my phone, often for as long as an hour - only to be confronted with the latest 'fight' outbreak in the thread

In not denying he is a good player. He is. But the Goons will get an inflated price for him like they always do, that was my point.

It has to be.
A release clause of €40m is about £31m. Why would they choose €31m as the release fee?

simpletons will never get it, thats why I didnt bother trying to explain.
Am not ITk but am really not expecting any signings this week. The way the world is now we'd usually know about it already.
GOing to go down to the last 10 days of the window

I must say I have real reservation about M'villa's attitude. He's off field stuff was really serious reminds me of Ravel Morrison. Not a good influence on a dressing room and not sure if AVB would be able to play the strong "father figure" role required. Add to that the attitude issues Ade himself has supposedly had in the past not a good combination.

I get that but the player says he doesn't want to leave. The article is very short and doesnt have any direct quotes, but I see it as....
Levy : Hi, I would like to match the buy out clause for Soldado
Valencia : Sorry we are rejecting that offer.
Valencia to Soldado : We have rejected a bid from Spurs for you
Soldado : I do not want to leave the club
or
Levy : Hi, I would like to match the buy out clause for Soldado
Valencia : We accept
Valencia to Soldado : We have accepted a bid from Spurs for you
Soldado : So I am for sale ? ok, I do not want to move to Tottenham
Both very different, one rejecting the club and one telling us he is happy to be at Valencia, but as you say the player has the last say where he wants to move to.
