I'm starting to doubt this loan will actually happen... if I'm not mistaken Valencia has refused to pay him more than 2M, what probably corresponds to little more than 20 or 25% of his total salary.
Think the Valencia loan is off, but a Brazilian club could come in I guess and we'll pay the majority of his salary. E
Pjanic sits on the bench at Barca and Arthur will need re-start his career a mid-table club or go back to Brazil. Two player career destroyed and Tici got a new job at Tottenham. Whooptie whoo.
I feel rather sorry for the players involved in that shady deal. Pjanic's time over here was gone, he was regressing and replaced by Bentancur. He didn't need to join Barca who had Busquets and FdJ as their deepest midfielder. Both players were much better than him. Pjanic should had gone to a smaller club instead.
Arthur didn't even want the move. It was probably forced upon him to balance the books. He probably would had benefitted that Koeman was gone, he actually seems suited to the game Xavi wants to play
