As they reported on the BBC article, it shows how keen they were to get him off the wage bill. I haven't read the release but is it true the payment is spread over 5 years lol?
Talking about "on our terms" is a load of hot air that they all say, but sometimes not on your terms is better. PSG are turning down €170m simply because they can, but I think it's obvious that Covid hit us hard, and once he made it clear he was leaving (how recently was this?) it put us on the back foot right away.
