Didnt think Levy does written release clauses. He just gives the player his word that he has a release clause and then deny it when a bid actually comes in

Kristof Terreur (a reliable journo) says the people saying it have printed parts of his contract as proof. It's actually €30m

The same leak apparently says De Bruyne is only on £127,000 a week. I find that hard to believe.

If this Alderweireld stuff is true though, we're fucked.

Sorry, just seen you've already said it. Yeah that's always been the rumour.

It's just not his M.O. He prefers his "gentleman agreements"!

Sven Claes (probably the most reliable belgian journo) has confirmed this.

Need to give him what kane is getting and remove that clause

Any club would take him for that.

I was sure we just didn't do release clauses?
Unless Alderweireld's one was deemed ludicrously high when he signed. Sure as shit isn't ludicrously high now given vast inflation of fees and his rep

Sounds like his agent has leaked this to get us to offer him a new contract. Wasn't there news a few months ago that we were going to offer him improved terms. If we were then we'd remove that clause I'd assume.

The part of the claimed Alderweireld contract published by Le Soir doesn't have the €30m release clause on it. That's a claim in text.

Sport Witness ‏@Sport_Witness 6m6 minutes ago
That isn't to say it's not in contract, but that bit hasn't been published. Therefore it's hard to see any clauses relating to the clause

Sport Witness ‏@Sport_Witness 4m4 minutes ago
Eg, it could only be activated under certain circumstances. Without seeing that part published, and it may be soon, it's an unknown.

You'd have to think the €30m is in the contract, but any circumstances and terms relating to it would obviously be very important.
