Palmeiras Investment: Almada Request Raises Concerns

In these terms, the Argentine would be valued at 40 million euros (R$ 249 million). Cruzeiro just broke the record with the signing of Gerson, who was at Zenit — Raposa will pay a fixed 27 million euros (R$ 169 million), plus three million euros (R$ 18.8 million) in bonuses for goals achieved, which totals R$ 187.8 million. Proportionally, the Argentine would cost “more expensive”.

In the negotiation with Barcelona for Vitor Roque, for example, Palmeiras paid 25.5 million for 80% of the player’s economic rights, but will have to pass on a percentage that varies according to the value of the operation.

Barça has 10% of the athlete’s economic rights if the proposal is up to 34.9 million euros. In other words, any proposal up to this value, Verdão would receive 90%. The Spanish team does not have a fixed 20% of the player.

If the proposal comes in between 35 and 40.99 million euros, Palmeiras will transfer 15%. From 41 million onwards, the transfer will be 20%. In other words, there is no sum of percentages, but rather a fixed transfer range

Atleti paid 21 million euros (R$135 million) to take the player from Lyon in the middle of last year and kept 100% of the athlete’s economic rights. And he only wants that for half now.
