Holy hell, no wonder we (Chelsea) said NO to buying Haaland and went for Lukaku
Link to tweet
that is £827K ($1.136 million) gross spend per week just in salary
so the total cost over 5 years
assuming a £150m transfer fee and around £50m total in bribes to that bellend Mino and daddy Håland
would be............ £415m ($570m)
£440m ($605m) if a £175m transfer fee
and Mino demanded an escape hatch clause after 3-4 (never could nail down whether is was 3 or 4, but knowing Mino it was 3) years with a set percentage above our buy price that would determine the max we could sell Håland for (so kind of a modified release clause amount)!
thank fuck we said NO

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
