10 years of FIFNot the same for every markets. Deal with the Germans then, they say exactly how much they rate one product.
Italian or English market are ridiculously overpriced.

10 years of FIF
Nostradamus
Most Passionate MemberNot the point.
The concept is that if a club like Inter is after my player, I can ask for 30m because that means there's at least 2 other similar clubs after him.
If a club like Fiorentina is after him, 15m is the most I could get.
It's even worse when agents are whoring their clients on free transfers.
Hi Empoli, my player is available for 400k
Hi Roma, my player is available for 800k
Hi Inter, my player is available for 1.5m
Same player btw.
Please let them have him and deal with the potential prison sentence

10 years of FIFThis.
Player market is not grocery shopping where you go to a store and buy a pot of yogurt, which has a listed price. It's highly inefficient marketplace.

10 years of FIFAnd that's the Italian market lmao. Give me an example of the German market if you guys wanna argue against.
What I saw last summer, Inter can negotiate for the whole month, wasting time on nothing. But Sommer and Pavard only left at what they said initially. Remember how fifers were angry at Marotta not able to reduce the price?
They don't bargain. Pay it or leave.

10 years of FIFWell they wanted more for Pavard than what we ended up paying, something like 40m.

10 years of FIFNope, this is from February:
Bayern want 30 million euros for Benjamin Pavard
The French right back is in a bad spot but his club are still demanding big coin

10 years of FIFNostradamusMost Passionate MemberIt's not the Italian market.
No idea why you have this concept.
Same agent, for same player, will offer the 8th place German team the player for 500k, to the 8th place Spanish team the player for 600k, to the 8th place Italian team the player for 700k, to the 8th place English team the player for 900k.
That's how it goes.
I've worked with an agent who was whoring a player for peanuts a crap league, where I had some common contacts with him.
Something like 40k to a relegation battling team, 60k to a midtable team and 80k to some of the top sides (median contract there was something like 50k-90k-130k for each "tier").
Nobody from the middle or higher wanted his guy because he was a non-EU player that had 0 apps at international level for an African nation that no one had heard of (in terms of football)
Eventually he signed for one of the worst sides and he was one of the best players in the league.
One of the teams that rejected him for 80k ended up buying him for something 200k and then gave him 250k in contract.
It's just how this market works. And this is why I always say, Inter is an end boss. We are not a selling club. We are a buying club and a shedding club.

I’m afraid Chiesa isn’t the player he was during the Euro’s 21’ anymore. Injuries ruined him. Shame for him tho. Was really talented.
Inter isn’t an end boss, we used to be but Inter cannot afford the wages nor even remotely the transfer fee that would make the club so… Inter sits firmly right under it because Inter now can only spend fraction of what the top can spend… holding on to Italian teams being some sort of end anything is holding on to a past that has gone, this false belief and putting your up on a pedestal where you do no longer belong is contributing to the lack of given youth a chance.
One of the main reasons we still are somewhat relevant, is because Italian players at large still prefer playing in Italy, If Italian behaved the same way western, Northern Europeans behave they would have found themselves in a very deep crisis.

10 years of FIFThe final cost is 32m+, close to his market price. Also what they paid for Stuttgart.
Price fluctuates, media numbers are reported differently. But German never ask double what they really want, as you claim how the market always works. Only so Italian market.

10 years of FIFMarket price was 32m, that's what the market paid for him. 
I don't know what's your point is anymore. Seller asks something, buyer is willing to pay something. Germans not asking double of the eventual price? So what? I don't get the point.
Torino asked 45m for Buongiorno, Napoli ends up paying 35m+bonus. Eventual price wasn't half of the initial ask.

10 years of FIFRead again what your post you reply to first. It says the seller asks double for one team then sells for another later for half. You claim it is how market works. I say it is not. Then Pavard and Sommer proves my point.Market price was 32m, that's what the market paid for him.

Initiating bullshit price to waste everyone time is Serie A specialty. German deal in a more gentlemen way. Price is there, negotiating around that, straightforward.
