People are mad for wasting so much on Joao Mario and Correa. Imagine how fucking idiot you can be to waste this much money on a fraud like Dembele.

Rabiot is set to sign for Marseille.

Marseille is lowkey stacked right now.

Marseille is lowkey stacked right now.

And they only have one game per week. Maybe they could pose a challenge to PSG this season? Probably wishful thinking but one can hope.

And they got rid of Correa

A joint investigation by the German magazine 'Der Spiegel', the anti-crime network 'OCCRP', the Spanish radio station 'Cadena SER' and the Dutch platform 'Follow The Money' uncovered an attempted fraud during the process of Robert Lewandowski's transfer from FC Bayern to FC Barcelona in 2022

At the end of July 2022, the Catalans received an email from the address 'pini.zahavi.48@gmail.com' under the subject "Commission Lewandowski" demanding that they transfer one million euros to a certain Michael D. According to the email, Michael D. was a lawyer. FC Barcelona confirmed receipt of the letter to Der Spiegel. Pini Zahavi is Lewandowski's agent and played a key role in the transfer. However, he himself said he had nothing to do with the ominous email and doesn't know anyone by the name Michael D. It appears that it was a fraudster who misused someone else's identity.

It has not been conclusively determined whether FC Barcelona actually transferred the million requested. However, there are indications that they did. For example, Der Spiegel learned from a source that a transfer had actually been sent from Barcelona to a Cypriot account. However, it was not accepted by the Bank of Cyprus due to the lack of information about the account's owner. When asked whether the money had actually been sent, Barcelona did not give a specific answer to Der Spiegel. The club only stressed that the sender of the email had not received any money

I wonder how it is that a professional football club with possibly hundreds of employees, who may have already done many transfer transactions, are unable to verify these names and addresses.
The email address is already suspicious, yet perhaps they are still unable to detect fraud by recognising the content itself, whether it is professionally written legally or not, and simply took the decision to transfer a large amount to an offsite bank account? or perhaps this club is already used to this kind of practice?

I remember a similar case between Lazio and Feyenord for De Vrij transfer
