He's still only 20. For some reason I thought he was older. Looks like he'll be a starter so hopefully we make the right decision on his loan next season.
if he starts for River then Euro teams will nut over him and his transfer fee will be inflated. Send him to river. 18m is odd tho. Why bring him back in December(I know South American cups are all 6 months leagues but still)
That's an interesting deal. So we give River a player for free for 1.5 years and then if he's good enough for us after that, we actualy pay 5M for the loan period. If he's not good enough for us but is worth 5M for them, we get 5M. If he's not worth 5M for them, we just get him back.
I guess we bet on him blossoming so much there that the 5M fee is nothing for us at that point.
edit. Gotta add that I like the destination. He gets to a club and environment which is targeting to win it all.
Strange deal. The economics got worse for Inter than initially reported.
I would say hard to see us redeeming him anymore. What I wonder is can't we really dry loan these kids? They aren't good enough even at B level so that they'd command proper minutes? And that's why we need to give the loaning clubs some incentive in the form of buyback and counter buyback?
He played good chunk at Ternana at least. Maybe the kid just wanted home?
we've had a lot of misses with dry loans in the last decade or so. at least this way there's incentive.. and, yeah, its obviously unlikely he will be worth 12m, but eh. 4m in, or a great player we get for 8m. Happy either way.
Apparently this kid is in a shitty situation. River changed a coach soon after he was loaned there to Gallardo and allegedly he's not trusting our guy that much.
It's just a bad luck but if it looks bad, they should cancel the loan. And I mean the player should initiate it if it feels bad enough, there's time left.
