Koulibaly is sold for 25m there. Why should Brozo be sold for less? Why is Koulibaly more expensive than him, he is two years older, and is a defender out of form.
What good 18m will do for Inter? Not enough for any replacement and lose Brozovic.

10 years of FIFBrozovic had a 40m release clause, I believe, at that point in time. E.g. Man Utd runmours? And no one paid it. I'd have to check exactly when it was exactly

FIF Special OnesWe apparently have two different definitions of heavily linked. And Neves is still 4 years younger.

10 years of FIFNo one paid because Brozovic didn't want to move.
Remember, last spring he signed a contract with Inter when he was hitting free agency in a few months. Player wanted to stay at Inter. There were no paid release clauses because the player wasn't going anywhere. The initial contacts are always first to the player, if there's no echo back, clubs don't even contact each other.

10 years of FIF4 years younger and 4 times shittier.
Yeah yeah, I'm hyperboling to make a point.
We should have demanded 50m and accept at 35-40m etc.

Best Overall PosterThere were many reports about Barcelona trying to sign Brozovic on a free before his extension and many reports about Kessie-Brozovic swap deal mostly coming from Spain. How would you call these?

10 years of FIFIt's not his price that bothers me, it's the much higher price of players with much less quality.
If we're selling him is probably because he asked to be sold because the massive salary he will get there...

10 years of FIFWe are selling him because we need to sell player(s) to finance our mercato. At this point it's pretty much mutual between the club and the player that he's going.
What I have a big issue with is the price we're getting paid here.

Well tbh would you offer 40 or 50 mil to a club that has to sell and has to sell fast because they need to kick-start their mercato and their targets could go to other clubs? No you wouldn't. You would lowball the club just like they did to us with that 18 mil starting offer and then gradually get to 5 or 10 mil more and call it a day cos you know we would accept it. Why? Cos we are desperate. In a world where you actually have a decent owner with solid financial backing, you can milk saudis for money, but not now.

10 years of FIFYeah, maybe we have started our bargaining at 50m or 40m but Saudis have informed immediately we start from 12m or something.
So I get your point. It's just a shitty situation to be in. I'm not okay with this situation, it's a big issue for me.
Brozo is a class player, this is a steal for them if he goes for 25m.

Most Humorous Member10 years of FIFThe argument that no one wanted Brozovic when he was available for 40 million a few years ago falls flat simply because cashed-up Saudis weren't throwing stupid money at clubs and footballers at that point in time. That's not even considering Brozovic's personal intentions.
The market has been distorted (further). To me, anything less than 50 million is a bad deal. 25 and 50 million probably look the same to someone with a bottomless pocket anyway.
Unfortunately, this club is in the position it is in and will likely jump at a bad deal.

Forum Supporter10 years of FIFWhat does cashed up saudis have to do with it tbh? Clubs like United were chasing him then, and didnt want to pay his release clause. Its not like we're talking about pre-2010 vs post-Coutinho/Neymar? 40m was hardly an extraordinary fee in 2018/2019?

10 years of FIFSo if deals didn't happen that means no team was interested? Nothing to do with Brozovic not wanting to move? And why do you insist on 40m release clause? Which year were you talking about? Because as far as I know and most reports say it's 60m

Man Utd prepare to trigger £43m release clause as club put star up for sale
The international star is expected to be on the move

It was 50mil, not 40, sorry
During our banter era, you'd be insane to turn down a 50mil transfer (Which is why HE wanted it added, we dont add release clauses as standard) to a CL side
Also it was hinted at enough sufficiently - eg here - https://www.goal.com/en/news/agent-...50m-release-clause/101x3j2oi0z6m1dclr5lctshpl
but no one wanted to buy out his clause.

10 years of FIFOk. Just like how Tottenham didn't want to but Bastoni, right? When did football turn into NBA where players *generally* have no say to wether he's traded/sold?The contract before that one was a lower release clause, FWIW

Forum Supporter10 years of FIFIn fairness, thats a bit different. Bastoni is Italian, an Inter fan, so his reasons to stay are somewhat higher than Broz after being at Inter for 2-3 years. Tottenham arent going to be in the CL this coming season, and have the reputation of being perennial losers. I can see why Bastoni would want to stay.
We'll never know the truth of it, but I can imagine that Bastoni didnt want to join Tottenham, no one bid enough for Brozovic to go. Like I said, he's (off the top of my head) the only player in recent memory with a release clause at Inter, ffs. That's crying out "stepping stone club". Inter werent even in the CL then, and it looked like we were still banter era but with higher cost players.
