Hi Ed002 if she is around,

What are you thoughts on Mino Raiola recently stating that he expects that within the next 3-4 years for transfers to break the £200m mark for a single player?

Simply put, how can clubs afford such an outlay? Is it simple a case of the new TV deals or are there other factors that are coming in to play?

Thanks in advance.

Big love
Red Sandman.

{Ed002's Note - He has seen the projected income figures that have been estimated for each of the "elite" clubs considering the breakaway - and there is some foreplay going on right now. The thing is that for some of the clubs (several, not just one or two), the figures look way too high for me. Regardless, he knows he is likely correct.}

Think he is just setting market expectations for what he expects to earn in the near future. 😀

If you are in any industry you try to talk up the market when it is in your interests to stimulate it. why should a football agent be any different.

Having said this I do find it interesting that Utd spent the same with Raiola as we spent on our record signing. Apparently Raiola can't play LB either so wouldn't have been worth it for us 😀.

{Ed002's Note - It i exactly as I said Kiddfan. There has been a prediction carried out by an accountancy firm given the exit criteria over three different dates. It was shared with the clubs that are part of the breakaway discussions on Monday Morning - and Mino is basing what he said on that - nothing more. As I said, I would caveat the figures as some seem bery high for some cluns - but supect Mino will be proven to be correct.}

The higher the transfer fee, the higher the cut for the Agent, did you know that Mino Raiola earned more from his wheeling and dealings than Ronaldo earned last year .

These super agents have some interesting names don't they?
Kia (Joorabchian), Pini (Zahavi) and Mino (Raiola) .

Don't think I'll ever become a super agent with my name 😡.

Foreplay? Ed, what Mino does in his spare time is none of my business and after seeing him, quite disturbing to think of.

I can no longer un-read that, Ron. It`s stuck in my brain forever. Thanks a lot, Ron.
