The world has gone Luis Paulo mad. After Vitoria's naff offer of nothing. I said I would accept 100k, not expecting anything. They then offered 100k, they have given me to the 2nd August for a decision
But I have had an offer for 99k, 93k But the best offer so far is Estoril 150k euros, 25% sell on clause and a guaranteed friendly. FM is saying its worth in excess of a quarter of a million euros.
I am now in a dilema , I can't get anyone to sign for me. But a 150k payable now and a friendly in a couple of weeks will do my profit & loss wonders, also it would release 90k into my transfer budget. But when my team is that small I have not got anyone who could replace him.
Will my wage budget go up with this sale 110k transfer budget, with only 24k remaining wage budget is not going to get me far. But if I stop his move to the superleague will he get upset?
I really dont know what to do.
Armindo has rejected, my offer of a contract, so back to the drawing board for my midfield.
I am going to start looking at loaning a few players, midfield and attackers.
