So it works out well for both clubs imo
Romano said 40m today. Either way, I don't really get it. It's basically a loan, but with the added pleasure of paying 30m for him during a pandemic. If he's a flop, you're stuck with him. If he does well, Real takes him away from you. Then you can take a moment and be happy about the 10m profit you've made - and then you can start looking for a new left back, who will obviously cost you more than the 10m you've made.

Don't get me wrong, he's probably a great addition for you guys on the pitch short-term. I like him a lot and wanted him at United, after all. But I don't know why you would agree to a deal like that, it gives all the power to Real and there are very few benefits for you long-term.
