Also, they are not stupid to let him pay. City won't pay the 45m if they can't use him in the CL.(LOL, the thought of City in the CL still makes me laugh)

Who cares if they registered him? He needs to play a game, right?

True, he has to play to be cup tied. He can even make it to the bench and not play and still he won't be cup tied.

they say they don't want to bench him so they can sell him to city

It doesn't matter if they don't want to sell to City specifically. If they use for that game, they probably don't intend on selling him at all.

They still have the buyout clause though which entitles them to sell if someone matches it.

Right. Well, they wouldn't have a choice then. So yeah, he's going to City.

yes i think they just want to hurry clubs for making a ''good'' offer

They would only fuck City up if they let him play on Thursday by making him cup tied. I don't know if he has the right to refuse to play if he wants to join City/keep his options open.

That would be a breach of his contract.

Of course, he wouldn't refuse to play, though; he'd just feign some minor injury.

 

[IrishZebra]

Interesting, if they name him in the starting line-up is he down as having played?

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

That would be a breach of his contract.

Or he could do like Gallas and threaten to score an own goal.

Atletico threatening to play Aguero can, to me, only mean one of two things:

1. They are trying to rush City into making a big offer; or

2. Aguero is pretty much a Juve player and Juve, as part of the deal, have agreed to let Atletico use Aguero for these qualifying games since Juve don't care if he's cup-tied.

No.1, clearly, is more likely.

1) I don't they would really need to tempt City to go much higher (if their bid is around 40) because that's the buy-out clause.

If it's number two, I'll number two.

No.3 could be: Atletico don't want to sell him at all.

But that's just as likely as #2 so yes, it's #1.

I don't think Man City have bid.

They keep dawdling, waiting to see what happens with Tevez, so Atletico are forcing them to make their mind up.

No.3 could be: Atletico don't want to sell him at all.

But that's just as likely as #2 so yes, it's #1.

Yeah, thought about putting that No.3 in, but can't see it being the case.

Even a declaration of not wanting to sell would just be a nogotiating tactic at this stage, I would say.

2) would mean he will arrive at the end of august

 

[IrishZebra]

But if they are waiting to sell Tevez they won't have him sold by the match will they?

 

[JCK]

That would be a breach of his contract.

Well yes, this can always be a possibility to avoid any contract violations.

It can easily be a combination of both, Juve have agreed with Atletico to let him play but at the same time did not reach a final agreement which makes Atletico in a position to press City on to making a fast fat offer as soon as possible.

Who do Atletico play on Thursday?

I guess Atletico do not want to sell him anyway unless they receive a lot of money for him, they need him first for their qualifier.

They play the mighty Stromsgodset, so I would think they could manage without him.

It's just them putting the pressure on.
