with some clear policy. the club wanted to sell him before sarri's arrival, and he's still here. how is it even possible?* back then he had some serious market value, and we knew that he's been flirting with simeone/atletico or barcelona before, so he was open to a move, yet he stayed. now here we are with a player who was rated above 70-80m 2 years ago, and won't get a penny for him if he decides so. look at just two similar examples when the club and the player didn't agree on the future, and the club manage to look a bit better than idiots: even adl managed to squeeze out a couple of millions of the milik situation, and inda sold icardi close to his real market price, even after he was stripped of captaincy and was all but fired from the squad. they probably read better books on negotiation techniques.
*it's how this club operates since paratici is in charge: he gave rugani two new contracts within a year, then tried to sell him. he gave mandzukic an extension, then he pushed him out. etc, i don't even want to get into that. it's just random decisions all over the place. zero transparency, zero consistency, zero vision. no wonder we ended up with a 25-man squad with like 22 places during his first summer. it's like when you put an addict or a pathological liar in charge.
first we want the guy sold, then we give him the armband in both chiellini's and bonucci's absence...? "you're out" should mean the guy's out. same goes for "you're our future capitain". players aren't that dumb, they will understand clear and simple messages. and they'll understand that there's chaos where they hear these two sentences within a couple of months.
