Player Valuation: £70m
Deulofeu’s buy back was set at a price that Barca could guarantee they’d meet when selling on, even after a year of barely playing, back with them.And not many transfers of such value that includes a buy back fee.
The point was in response to Mina not necessarily being the long term stable option. Chelsea can take Zouma back, just like Barca can.
If Mina does well, there's every chance Barca could do a Deulofeu. Buy him back, sell him on. Barca were always going to exercise that buy-back clause for Deulofeu...
If they buy Mina back from us for £60m, it will have been a fantastic bit of business for us, because we’ll have made a big profit, AND he will have been boss for us for at least 18 months.
