    Probably delaying so that if the rest of the transfers fall on their arses can at least have him as a deadline day signing.

    25k PW is bang average squad wages for the biggest teams, if not actually on the low side. Insanity, I know, but it is what it is... :39:

    Yeah, but if you can't afford it, which Barca can't, you don't do it.

    True, but the point is, Barca are in a financially precarious position, so there is that to take into account also.

    Whatever the loan fee agreed between the clubs, it will not purely and solely be to just cover wages, as Barca will probably look to pocket a portion of that to be used elsewhere. Football at this level is a business after all, and loans in business happen but even with favourable terms and goodwill between Celtic & Barca, they are not a completely charity and a loan deal is not purely out of altruistic benevolance.

    Wouldn’t surprise me at all. Did that with Jota when he first signed on loan.

    Some bottles crash easier than others it seems @Notorious. Every confidence in your announcement. Transfer thread has been full of scattered glass all summer.

    How you going to get the traditional photo from your hospital bed?

    They really need to announce this one tonight. If they're keeping it till the last day it's an embarrassment.

    For whom the bell tolls, Crow. The ban hammer shadow hangs heavy over his hospital bed. The biggest pain he feels is the one that's yet to come.

    Passed his medical yesterday. 24hrs later still no news...no wonder folk are fed up with club.

    Cam we delete this and then do another when he signs.... like a newco welcome thread.

    Cancelo isn't going back to Barca, that wouldn't effect this would it?
