[Chacarita Juniors]

Eder Alvarez Balanta (River Plate) ---> Club America

 

[poet11]

James and Isco (Real Madrid) >>> ???

Pogba(Juve) and Hazard(Chelsea) >>> (Real Madrid)

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

If it were up to me anyone willing to pay 50m could have Hazard.

Ronaldo -> United rumours are right back on after recent events, is he even a wise acquisition now at the kind of money they would have to pay?

 

[Arnau]

Ronaldo departure in next transfer windows is obvious this season

Its between PSG and Man u because are the only clubs capable to afford his wages (he is not going to city)

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Only clubs that would waste such an insane amount of money on someone my age as well.

 

[Arnau]

Red Bull Leipzig too, that shit is for real.

I think most people currently think or Barcelona, Bayern and Real as the 'big three' clubs in world football, but if Ronaldo goes to PSG does that mean they will take Real's spot, or does being in the French league make that impossible?

 

[poet11]

Personally, think they're already amongst the current highest rated clubs. The team has no weaknesses apart from GK. You argue Juve are close as well.

 

[Arnau]

Actual real madrid is not even top10, first serious team they get in europe will tore them apart.

 

[poet11]

Just yesterday I was thinking Mahrez would be perfect for Atletico and there's a rumour today about Simeone "demands" for him to be signed.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Red Bull Leipzig too, that shit is for real.

They sold Kimmich for like 4m last summer.

 

[Arnau]

Because they were in BuLi 2. They are going to promote that season and invest a lot of money.

First Red Bull big project in football.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

At any point the DFB could pull that license and the ownership in the club would leave Red Bull. It's very tough to know what will happen because they clearly violate the principle of the 50+1 rule in Germany, but their very complex club, similar to a 1910s trust, has so far seen them avoid punishment.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

As far as I am aware they stick to the letter of the 50+1 law if not the spirit...

 

[ShiftyPowers]

They don't have open membership for club members. So yes, those members "own" the club, but their applications to be members are approved by Red Bull. They have three different "boards" with different duties.

 

[poet11]

Ousmane Dembele (Stade Rennais) >>> Arsenal

Kid looks insane,tbh. 9 goals and 3 assists at 18 years of age including a hattrick in his local derby against Nantes. Already the clubs best player by far, apparently, with the likes of Quintero, Ntep and the legendary Gourcuff.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

They don't have open membership for club members. So yes, those members "own" the club, but their applications to be members are approved by Red Bull. They have three different "boards" with different duties.

I thought that technically anyone can become a member, but it's just prohibitively expensive?

 

[ShiftyPowers]

It's not THAT expensive, it's like 900 Euros. So I mean, most people wouldn't do it, but it's not like that's out of the question for the general populace. Board still has final approval even if you pay the fee.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

No I guess no-one would do it whilst they are in lower leagues but if they did reach Bundesliga people might be willing to pay that - they should raise it to 90'000 euros.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

That's probably more than the actual members would be willing to pay.
