Keep in mind guys, the negotiation hardly went back and forth. A high profile player switching clubs would've carried as a story long enough, had the player pushed for the move alone, with his agent going back and forth between clubs. But by the time this story broke, the player was almost a done deal. There was no further rounds of negotiation. The amount was pretty much fixed like the clubs had already dealt behind the scenes. So yes, to me at least there is a possibility this didn't get out in the open coz the clubs had hushed up the move, coz it couldn't have been hidden too long if the player was trying to make this move happen himself. My view is we still don't know the whole story and I'm not buying Beppe's version of Vidal asking to leave. Especially after he says we are buying an AM in one interview, and then says we are going to add a midfielder numerically to the equation in the next.
Maybe we are trying to break the big player jinx.
The interesting comparison there would come down to the Serie A vs the Bundesliga. The dynamism, movement, pace, and strength of the league to make those stats possible. Assuming Vazquez plays in the harder league, those stats become even more impressive, or vice versa. Either way, he would be a shrewd move at the right price, but in a season where we've lost one big gun too many, we need to buck the trend with the purchase of a more guaranteed marquee player.
They don't need the money, but they sure as hell want Pogba. And if this goes someway in sweetening that deal, they will be more than happy to oblige. And I hope it comes to fruition, coz I think Mascherano and Goetze would turn this mercato on its head, the way things are as of today.
Similar to Enzo Bronzetti, maybe like a Fifa agent that perhaps oversees the legitimacy of the paper work and money being exchanged etc. Dunno, just guessing here.
