have you heard Carnevali's words about giving Roma an helping hand by buying 2 of their youths for 10m before July 1st to help them with "plusvalenze" for UEFA settlement agreement?
That's all right no? and maybe Roma will buy 2 youths in this summer market from Sassuolo to give them back those money.
Or what? Buy Frattesi for an inflated ammount since they have 30% of resale value?
This italian football. And they deserve every low balll offer they receives.
With those money if they really accept 80% of Serie A clubs and B will go down and I wouldn't mind so.
People with money will survive. Leechers will die and maybe we'll have the chance to finally change a broken league administrated by local mobs
That's very funny coming from a fan of one of the most crooked clubs in football history.
Carnevali wanted both players last summer as part of the Frattesi deal. He tried again this summer and Roma (who had to sell for FFP this time) agreed. Roma simply asked to complete the deal before 30/6. His quote about "giving Roma an helping hand" is about the date of the deals, not the deals themselves.
Volpato and Missori are two of Roma's top youth products. 10m is an absolute bargain. Totally different scenario compared to Juve inflating the value of 11 completely unknown players. Like, who the feck is Kevin Monzialo? Not even a starter in half of his 27 appearences with the Primavera team. Immediately sold for more than Missori who's been a starter for Roma and Italy since U15 level. Yeah right, not suspicious at all. What about Franco Tongya? Sold for 8m. Volpato has been sold for less and he's one of the best players in the Primavera league, and has played some games for Roma's first team. Eric Lanini, a 26yo nobody who played his entire career in lower divisions, sold for 2.4m to Parma (who immediately loan him to Serie C Como), while Roma couldn't find a club who was willing to spend more than 5.2m for a player with international experience like Carles Perez...
Sassuolo has a long track record of buying from Roma's youth system and selling for money later. But despite this apparently good relationship between the clubs, Carnevali has never done Roma any favors in return.
It's Roma asking for a Sassuolo player? 40m is the starting price.
If it's Juve, they bend over, give them better prices and let them get away with things like paying Locatelli over 7 years (free for 2 years, then 5 years installment).
All the circus since 2019 with VAR, Covid, ludicrous in-justice, bending of the games to have different winners and sell Calcio better abroad, plus the NT hitting more and more lower points. Feck. Them. All.
