Press conference and Team for Stoke

You have no idea. If it brought down the starting price they may well.

"It was also agreed that United would pay PSV up to €5million (£3.9million), or 10 per cent the difference of profit, should Depay be sold on in the before summer 2020."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The way I read that is that if Depay is sold before 2020 United will either pay 5m Euros or 10% of any profit. As a profit has not been made does that mean that we are still paying the 5m Euros?

Strange clause if worded that way as United would have had to have sold him for 50m Euros more to match the 5m Euros they'd get anyway. Approaching Ronaldo money!

Love it how people use transfer fees to claim higher ground

We only paid £5 for such and such and you paid 80m for Fellaini, we may not have won anything but still... net profit...

Jose on Depay

“I think it’s difficult to say where it went wrong because it didn’t work last season.

But he was a fantastic pro. So if someone thinks it didn’t work because he wasn’t, they’re totally wrong.”

Very interesting comment. It seems Depay has received a lot of unnecessary stick for his alleged "bad attitude" which wasn't called for.

Those 'poor attitude' reports all stemmed from the Dutch media when Depay was seen wearing a baseball cap on international duty.So trivial.

I think it's particularly badly worded. However, I would guess at it meaning that United would pay 10% of any profit, up to a maximum of 5 million. I don't think we'll have to pay anything on a loss

That's exactly what it is, it's clear in the transfer doc itself.

Still doesn't mean they thought they would ever have to pay it.
