Correction The initial fee paid
for Di Maria was 25 million Euros, Which at that time when the
value of the Euro was half of the pound (I know this because i was in Portugal, when this news broke) equates to around 12.5 Million, Plus a further 11 Million Euros # 6.5 Million
If he won a title in his first season which they did, So all in all 19 Million pounds (Wow what a
tremendous amount of
money to spend, Jesus Andy Caroll cost more than him in the same god damn season)... Falcao's had a release clause of 45 Million, One which they paid
money to him and his agent in order to instill in his contract, This is a sour note
for most Porto fans because, he jumped ship having signed a 5 year deal In July and he left in August
for less
money for his buy out clause.
