He will be almost out of contract, we lose the player's loyalty and chance to renew his contract and at best, we lose the 10mil we gave for Vidal.
So again the 10mil, at this particular moment,as a tactical loss of available cash, when we have other other needs that should be set as priorities but were sacrificed, stand.
And chances are, that most if not all, of the 25mil investment, we made on Melo, will be lost too, in the future, as a strategical loss of capital. A financial strategy that makes our club smaller season after season, trnasfer failure after failure...
The 25mil for no particularly good reason, is a grave strategical mistake, an avoidable one.
And the 10mil loss of the acute invesment, do not only reflect on the this particular position, but also influence and undermine our chances to improve our problems in other areas, because we now lack the cash to fix them.
This is a double loss, no matter how you see it, that will hurt us both know, if we dont buy a CB+LW and in the future, depending in the money we will lose from Melo's sale/release.
As for his Melo being a mercenary, go back and check his comments after every match, the will to win smth with us, from the first day he joined us reflected on the field and post match comments and the frustration and bitterness for the betrayal from our management in his comments when he realised that he was given the boot...
This is not how betrayl loooks like, look at Zlatan, and Vieira to see how a real mercenary behaves.
