Gerard Deulofeu - Once a Blue, always a Blue

[Dutch Toffee]

I've heard someone's always got their hand in your pocket in there one way or the other..

That's where it normally starts.

Fully expect him back in an Everton shirt next year, probably on a permanent for around £10m.

Worth the gamble, @FCBarça's hyperbole aside.

Beginning to think it might happen as well, especially if Enrique stays as their manager and they add in a buyback clause. If the deal did happen might also smooth a loan move for someone like Adama Traore as there would be a friendly face to help them adapt to the club.

I agree with this, he 100% wont be retained by Barca, unless their transfer ban still exists?

Cant see us ever agreeing to a buy back clause for anyone.

Not sure Barca will sell him at a price we can afford without one though. Iirc their transfer ban lasts until the Jan transfer window.

Deulofeu on a perm for £10m would be a nice piece of business. Can't see Barca letting him go for that amount though. Would be an immense upgrade on the winger front compared to McGeady.

Barca dont care about money, this is a Club that paid 45m for Ibra and gave away Eto'o at his peak for free.

Think a buyback clause would be less about protecting them from money loss and more about providing political cover for selling an academy player that has been touted for years at a bargain price.

But hope you are right and they don't care about either.

a buy back for 35mil would be the same as a release clause.
