Right, I've always wondered what exactly goes on when players are in "negotiations" with a club, and also when clubs are in negotiations with each other. These things go on for weeks sometimes, but I'm at a loss to know what they can be negotiating over.
The way I see it, there's only so much you can negotiate, and even then it's mainly over weekly pay. How complicated can these conversations be? Surely its something like:
Vertonghen: I want 50k a week
Spurs: We give you 35k
Vertonghen: 42k
Spurs: 40k
Vertonghen : Agreed.
Why does that take days to sort?
Also, do players really have "must be played" clauses in their contract?
So, is there anyone who has knowledge of these things that could shine a light on this for me please?
