Theres not been a real top class player to go there yet, who hadn't already been dubbed a bit of a mercenary.

I'd say that Tevez at 32 is still a top player. He'd get in most, if not all, EPL teams.

Although whether you consider him a mercenary already is debatable!

Chelsea:
Bought David Luiz for £21m, sold for £50m.
Bought Lukaku for £18m, sold for £30m.
Bought Oscar for £27m, sold for £60m.

Tevez has always followed money.

point i was getting at is that he didnt leave a top european league to go to china.

wanted to to retire at boca which is lovely, then you get offered 615k a week , you have no choice but to go get it

he probably does believe in his own ability.

you just cant turn down 400k a week.

doubt he would ever get offered 200k a week in europe, couple of years in china can come back and still only be 27.

good move
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah and it's 400k net. He was earning 100k gross here so his take home pay has just increased 7 times.

KDB as well, not that I wish he was sold

Oscar best paid player in the world. 475,000 euro per week.

Football has gone mad. Oscar makes more than Ronaldo.

tevez on 615k

Ronaldo himself probably clears in excess of a million per week when everything is taken into account. He also gets to win Champions League's and the Ballon d'Or etc

Also why do we always measure footballer's wages in terms of per week ?? Pretty sure it's to make us all feel angry/inept
