Hadn’t he himself said it’s 18m euros?!

Not seen such Bravery!
Seems a bit odd that the release clause differs so much from previous reports.

Ironically these are reports from Spain via a British based site quoting in full an interview by Brian Owen from the Argus outside the Amex with the Getafe manager after the game on Saturday. Not new quotes.
Brian wrote today "The expectation among many who follow Getafe closely appears to be that Cucurella will end the month as an Albion player."

We're in the pipe, 5 by 5
I'm surprised Spanish clubs are holding out for such high amounts when they're all meant to be broke?

Can you blame them for trying to play hard ball with a club who have just trousered 50 million? As we all know TB will walk away if he doesn’t like the rising price. I can see this transfer falling through.

No but i think this is just poor reporting. Multiple outlets all summer have said his release clause is £15m/18m Euros. It either is or it isn't.
They can't have just upped it cos Ben White has joined Arsenal.

Didn't the player himself say it was €18M?

Might be the LB solution when we are playng a flat back four (March as LWB when we are going three at the back)?
But 30M euros? **** off!

The bloke was at Barcelona with Firpo, who got the nod over Cucurella who then went out on loan. Leeds just signed Firpo for c. £12 mill. Top whack for Cucurella is €18 mill. €30 mill is a fantasy figure rhat nobody would pay.

Its worse then that. This has been an absolute disaster of a transfer window, a real calamity. We are weaker going into this season then what we finished last season and the season starts Saturday.
A real shame, all that pre season enthusiasm has just evaporated.

In that interview the Getafe manager said “I sincerely believe Marc will stay with us".
Might be brinkmanship but it is odd that there are conflciting reports about the release fee.

God our fan base is fickle. Just grow the hell up and have some patience. That is embarrassing. Entitlement pours through your veins.
