I can see why he would do that.

They have got a lot of very talented players coming through at the moment and he will want to send a message to them that it's not easy to leave and send a message to clubs that it is hard to sign the players.

It's entirely possible that could prove to be worth more to the club over ten years than the 20m or so Juve are willing to offer for Llorente.

He could also scare off the players if he treats Llorente as a prisoner. I don't think any player would agree to such a high release clause after the Javi Martinez and Llorente fiasco.

Well that's part of the gamble.

Not necessarily on the release clauses, but getting the players who have ambitions to play at a higher level to sign a contract of more than a couple of years, if they fear the club will just flat out refuse to sell them.
