This aged well
Benzema €200m per season
Ronaldo €200m per season
Messi €400m per season
Kante €100m per season

...Lukaku €19m

Even an injury prone, 32 year old, defensive midfielder who hasn't played in 2 years is being offered FIVE times more than the self-proclaimed top 5 striker in the world.

Stop being such a nerd, seriously.

Lukaku would be going there for the love he has for the club though and to prove that he would still be the king even in a league with Benzema and Ronaldo.

With zero budget? I am not sure!
it's not like Lukaku doesn't eat any budget so far. if anything, Lukaku had absorbed most Inter budget have since last season.

Benzema, Ronaldo, Messi, Kante.. you'll notice they've all won the Champions League, unlike our friend who did his utmost to avoid it.
Good Lord, you were right! Even the Arabs question his worth. Well done.

Doesn't matter the offer came. Your statement got proven wrong just a day after you made it 😭😭😭

The self claimed king deserves more than 19m... according to himself.

Don't have one.
He ain't going nowhere... we will play it safe and make an easy deal with Chelsea, and he will not want to leave a country and league where he still has a certain reputation because of that scuddetto season.

This quote is so weird because it actually always was good form. He lacks the critical qualities and characteristics to be able to enter that group and I think it'll be more and more blatant as he gets near the later part of his career because all these guys were monsters until late in their career. Benzema is still a top top player as is Lewandowski and I assume Kane will still keep performing quite well as he has qualities that don't tend to fade away with age. Suarez was nuts even at atletico.
Come on Al Hilal, show some ambition ❤️

They approached him directly, avoiding agents. Why Marotta is not doing that? Why he has to talk to agents? They are all rats, who destroy many deals. Just from single one deal, they make millions. In many cases, agents get more money than player, when contract is signed.

The disrespect from some of you guys towards the person who single handedly ensured we'll be playing in next season's Champions League is disgraceful. You deserve Scammaca, Zapata, Dia, Ratatouille, 38 year old Dzeko and all the rest of these bums that we're being linked with. Bring them to replace Lukaku and we'll see where we'll finish next season
I really agree with this post. Yes even we all know that Lukaku is a big game bottler but why did you or what made you bestow him with the right and pressure of a Tournament winner. he is not that. He has never been that. But give him enough confidence he will get you to the latter stages of these tournaments. And then the rest of the boys can step up, if they have it in them. Dont blame it all on Lukaku. What did Djeko or Lautaro do in the finals. What did Barella do?

Thats exactly the mentality of a small organization or a small club, blaming it all on a single person. Why did Inzhagi start with Djeko? When we all know, he brings his body and he holds up, he does some link up play, he will never outrightly make you win the game. Why did he wait for so long to replace Hakan? Why did he even buy that Argenentinian Lazio forward?

Secondly, you have to put the context on. We are not a financially,cash rich club anymore, we dont have the finance to buy the next Crespo,next Vieri,even next Milito so need guys like Lukaku to help us to transition to that next phase whenever it comes, if we leave out Lukaku whom we will base this transition on? Dzekos holding up play, whatever that means or that Lazio guy..

He spent the entire season here, Marotta and Lukaku can't get more direct than that.

Imo, most of Marotta type deals happen because he actually has good relations and reputation with agents, it's always the same he is dealing with after all.
