Isn't the image right problem not due to future use of his likeness, but the lawsuit between him and that firm? So it's basically about taking on the risk of the lawsuit which could potentially be a liability of 40m. Hardly peanuts.

I think we need assurances a solution can be found but I question the validity of the reports saying we're against time to do it, if everybody within the deal is being forthright then maybe the final details can be ironed out after we register him depending on prem laws.

Sky playing down the Dybala move which to me shows it’s not happening. As if there was a chance of us signing him still they would be hyping it up like anything

I can almost guarantee you if United had the same level of links to him that we have right now, they'd be doing a 20 hour segment on him to United. They only focus on what will get them views.

This is so close it's going to be so disappointing when it doesnt come off. My faith is wavering

Thing is, a 40m liability is never a fine detail. Needs to be solved before we can commit.

Everyone seems to be pedalling this 'image rights' issue. I hope its accurate as im certain it can be resolved. However i do get the feeling its just an easy escape for those in the press who labelled it as a certain deal scenario.

Thats what i mean we need assurances to make sure the 40 mill liability isnt that but if its a case of paperwork come the deadline we might be alright.

Yeah they were just dancing up and down for Ndombele. :rolleyes:

True but that wasn’t with less than 24 hours of the transfer window remaining though. This would be one of if not potentially the biggest move of the day if it was to happen which would create viewing figures. You would think if there was the slightest chance of it happening then would think they would be hyping it up like they usually do not down playing it.

Are we all blatantly ignoring the fact he’s playing in a friendly game with the captains arm band?! I highly doubt this signing is gonna happen, regardless of how much I would want him to sign.

They leave it low tonight then Jim Shite walks out on deadline day afternoon to hype it back up again. It’s a 24hr channel, it’s how they work

If it was United than sure. We simply don't bring in the viewer numbers regardless of what we do.
