i don't understand the reason why they extended that contract. yeah it does save a few millions per season, that's all right. but is it worth compromising an additional budget because of it? you really should be in the same room with those people who made that call to understand where this is coming from. will arthur get his current salary spread over that 3 year period? I that case i'm fine with it obviously, otherwise it just doesn't make too much sense
I don't think there is another reason for renewal with a dumping of contract.
Lowering Arthur annual costs that right now are 22-23m/year while with this renewal they might go down to 15-16 per year.
Everything in hope that a 26years old manage to land a normal season and someone willing to buy him for a sum that allow us to not make a loss

yeah i wish we had lord paratici and we could continue overpaying both seller clubs and agents so that we'd have much more unsellable duds like arthur
all hail lord paratici
all hail lord paratici
The Arthur deal is a very underrated one imo. Not only we got rid of our last good mid, who was otherwise unsellable, we also got back a potential Xaviesta about to enter his prime. Paratici outdid himself there, but some unlucky unpredictable things like COVID really screwed us over. He was building the next 2013-2018 Real otherwise
we had to balance the books because we signed ronaldo, we signed way too many duds so results started to fade and started to overpay our players. you seem to forget that paratici brought back bonucci on high wages, raised the salary of tek, sandro, rugani, extended with mandzukic, khedira, signed useless ramsey, expensive de ligt (good signing but still fucking expensive), while he couldn't even sell dybala, who was a proper player with actual market value back then. the whole squad was unsustainable under your idol, that's the first thing you have to keep in mind.
still, it doesn't mean that juve had to pay 80m for fucking arthur. it wasn't the only option. barcelona wanted pjanic for years, psg also wanted him, we could have sold him plain and simple. yes, the fee would have been significantly lower, so what. not only half legged pjanic was a superior player to injury prone, unprofessional arthur, the costs of that deal are unforgivable. we also had a squad full of players with actual market value, including dybala, ronaldo, de ligt, sandro, bentancur, demiral or even rabiot. downsizing instead of further increasing the costs of the squad when covid hit the whole football was an incredibly dumb decision. it was already explained on tuz countless times how these stupid plusvalenza driven deals only defer the costs to following years, so only offer short term semi solutions to much longer issues.
so the club had to balance the books, but not by the dumbest deal ever. if you can't see in 2023 how signing arthur was a terribly bad deal then there's really nothing to add
