Comparing the price we are going to sell him for to the purchase price is meaningless, we will be recording a pretty big profit on the books though (book value should be around 35m). We just significantly overpaid 3 years ago, and not by a little. Yes he was 19 years old and knocked both us and Real out in the CL that year, but no one in their right mind would pay 85m for a defender from the Dutch league.
Having said that, this is the first bid and I expect us to squeeze another 5/10m and ship then him off.
