Not disputing that, but nobody is talking about that 20% business anymore.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
People who say they would rather have a 23 year old Zidane than a 23 year old Pogba....your chatting s**t! How many of these guys remember him playing in France before he left for Juve?
When comparing players, especially retired ones, people will always compare the player in their hey day, rather than at the same stage of the player they are comparing them too.
How many would have had Becks above Zidane??? SAF did. And Zidane was a couple of years ahead too!

But that 105m EUR is still in line with what was always said - 80m for Pogba and 20 to agent.
All clubs disclose to football association fees paid to agents and third parties. None of those get counted in transfer fees. Yes obviously in the end it is a cost to club and Raiola's reported fee in this case is significantly higher than usual ones but if we have to compare say Bale's transfer to this, it will remain 100 vs 105.
Total cost of transfer can be a new metric which fans who are interested in such things should study. In Madrid's case, it should also include amount they must be paying to AS and Marca to drive club agenda.

Really?! People already waiting for next summer to sign a few players?
I hope this season is a huge success and we don't have to buy a single player next year.
Our squad and staff is awesome right now, how about waiting a few games and give them a chance before calling for Griezmann etc?
€105m to Juventus over 3 years is the key point. What they do with it and what contractual obligations they have with that money is not our concern.
Muppets need verification.What is the purpose of flight tracking really? We know his flight details, is there a need to monitor in the air?
And that it took a legal case to resolve Neymar's and we still don't definitively know the full amount there. Likely, never will.
Not sure if it's just me, but there's something deeply soothing about watching a flight tracker.
Theres a Jet2 flight arriving from Nice at 1.30pm. I suppose we've got to watch the pennies now we've spent £145m on Pogba, right?
What a legend, Di Marzio doing half our work for us, telling us what flight he is on.
I didn't say it was? All I'm saying is abnormal fees (20m worth) should not be ignored when looking at the price involved of bringing a player to the club.
Also, pretty much every big transfer fee involves staggered payments.
You will never know, so it's best to just go by the official fee. And we don't know what portion of the 20% actually goes to Raiola, most of it is probably going to Pogba.
Rumors #ASlies
Imagine we do all this and he fails the medical lol

It's this one. Heading to Manchester airport. Just filter it to MAN airport, only one heading there from the south of France

He is definitely on a private jet because no commercial airlines flying from Nice to England between 10-11am.
Di Marzio is Kermit himself. Even flight tracking, what a muppet!Wouldn't surprise me if he's in fact a member of the Caf. Maybe he's ehsanul - just trying to deflect attention with all the Real Madrid nonsense.
The origin of that flight is Malta, not Nice.
Could be this one too though right? From Nice. Heading north. Looks about 30-45 mins into its flight. Gulfstream G650.

That's a flight from Malta?
I agree. Most likely, they cant keep all that money but need to pay the agent etc. Not our concern though
What abnormal fees are you talking about? We are paying Juventus a transfer amount of €105m. Why you're obfuscating further is beyond me. Any 20m fees paid to Raiola is to be done by Juventus, because of their (apparent) obligations.
It's probably this one.
Yup. I think we have a winner!
That's not what was reported by Di Marzio/other reputable journos. We apparently caved to pay the agent fees for them.
EDIT - I missed this article - so maybe some further info here? http://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/eng/...ogbas-transfer-to-manchester-united-released/
Doesn't load up at work though.
It does look like a private jet, according to google:

I've learned my lesson and will never question this beautiful man again!
Di Marzio you genius thank you for bringing the Pogba saga to us even though I'd always said that you know nothing and this deal won't happen. Let's forget this - it's PogBOOM time!!
No the record books will have the total cost of his rights around 107m.
This isn't being reported anymore! Flat fee of 105m over 3 years is the money paid to Juventus.
OK maybe something has changed (my impression is that we have paid agent fees to Raiola as part of this deal, but we'd need to wait for the details to release. If they ever do).
Just voted yes. I'm getting the hang of this.
Your link says the fee breakdown will be released by Juventus later today (on confirmation of the transfer perhaps).
Where's travelling from? As in where is he at now?
In a private jet, north of Paris right now!
