Trincao wasn't taken on permanently by us.
Can anyone remember how much it would have cost us?
He went for just €7m to sporting

Eventually sporting will pay 13 million euros and barcelona have a buy back clause. I think we were being charged 5 million loan fee with 27 million euros to complete for trincao.
The fool did not learn from the semedo fee.

I think we had a £25m option and had to pay a £5m loan fee when we didn't take up the option.

To be fair, his value would have dropped after a disappointing season with us and he would have a year less remaining on his Barca contract, further reducing his value.

As @Liamburns1993 points out, the €7m fee is for half of his rights, which puts his value at €14m, roughly £12m.

Maybe a bit on the low side, but Barca are desperate for the cash now!

So you've worked out that having a terrible season in the PL damages a player's value?

Jeff trusts Jorge but all the evidence is we seem to overpay to recruit and get poor value when we sell -Fabio,Trincao,Guedes etc which is the complaint that clubs have when they use Mendes.But it's not just him -what were we going to sell Coady for?

So you carefully don't mention Jota, perhaps Neves....
