Why has Lawwell not done the deal yet?. . . . It's called being an good and vastly experienced business man.

PSG could sell a reserve or two and raise that figure. Folk really do overrate Peter Lawwell, and go to desperate measures to big him up. He does his job, but needs to step away from the football side of things and stop interfering - which I believe he will have done once again, should Edouard not be here; Rodgers rates him, as shown in the games he started him in.

Surely that ruling puts pressure on PSG to maximise the sale value of its players? If they are to work towards "break even" they cannot afford to let anyone go cheaply, or am I just being thick? ( a fair possibility)

Not sure PSG give a eff about Édouard in the context of raising that sort of money. They’ll sell a few squad players and raise that easily.

Don't think they can change the goalposts now unless they're making it cheaper.

We may be involved with the jiggery pokery they'll no doubt be up to. Inflated fee and PSG paying Eddie something for a while or the like.

I take it people do realise that any contract for sums of money running in to the millions takes time to get over the line?

Even when the basic terms of a transfer deal are agreed in principle you have at least three parties involved - both the buying and selling clubs will have their legal, commercial, finance and purchasing teams going over the small print in detail and trying to negotiate away any clause they don't agree with, and the player's agents and lawyers will be doing the same.

Add in complications of dealing with both French and UK/Scottish legalities on the deal, translation of documents every time something gets updated and the possibility that PSG may view this as priority number 10 out of the 12 deals they are currently working on then it's easy to understand why it might be a wee bit more time consuming and complex than just phoning up PSG and giving them our credit card details.

It's when you realise that any contract for sums of money running in to the millions takes time to get over the line that it really becomes a worry.

A few journalists were saying on L'Équipe TV that the Édouard deal will probably be the complement to one or two bigger deal to pass the 60m bar. Guedes to Valencia, Krychowiak to Seville and Édouard to Celtic.
