You’ve got players going for £20 million who’ve barely played any senior football. It’s not much of a stretch that Greenwood is worth £26 million.Its pretty amazing you have managed to wangle out such a good financial package for him but I suppose also shows how morally bereft the footballing world is.
As an owner, you either accept him or you don’t. You’re not going to think ‘I’d take an alleged rapist at £15 million but not at £26 million’. If Marseille made peace with having them in the squad, his footballing abilities are easily worth what they paid.
They also know the club will get more eyes on it now, at a time when French football is struggling.
