And he seems to be happy to come to us too so it doesn't feel like the player is angling for a move somewhere else. Just a protracted negotiation with the selling club. Which we can sort out.

CityRanger Posted 26 August, 2012 Share Posted 26 August, 2012 http://www.gianlucadimarzio.com/calciomercato/ramirez-il-southampton-ora-e-vicinissimo/ A sudden turn, probably decisive. Agent Ramirez, Pablo Betancourt, was in England. He convinced the president of the Southampton to pay 14 million for 70% of the card of the player. Thus giving up commissions to agents just to close the deal. The deal is not yet closed, there are still details. The Penarol must accept that 30% of the card is paid from Southampton. It is 5% for those who formed the player. Expect only the cards and guarantees, but this time just missing. Ramirez is outside the EU, they need a work permit to play in England. That's why his agent tomorrow will be in Rome for the visa, between Thursday and Friday will be in England. To close the Southampton may be the right time ...

S-Clarke Posted 26 August, 2012 Share Posted 26 August, 2012 Surprised it's us that's blinked though (if true). I honestly thought it would be Bolonga who'd have been forced to accept what we offered. But this is pretty solid - both of these guys, tancredi and dimazrio have been very sharp on this all the way through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel=God-Poyet=Sod Posted 26 August, 2012 Share Posted 26 August, 2012 It seems like it will be good business for all parties concerned if the deal happens. If that report is correct, the agent deserves credit for giving up his fees so that the deal can happen. That's of course if it is true, and IF is a word that has been used alot during the 95 pages on this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 26 August, 2012 Share Posted 26 August, 2012 The full release to the Italian media: A sudden turn, decisive. The agent of Gaston Ramirez, Pablo Betancourt, is in England. It 'party yesterday morning, after an intense exchange of e-mail with Southampton. He convinced the president to pay 14 million for 70% of the card of the player. Renouncing its committees just to close the deal. 30% of the tag will remain so at Penarol and the player's agents. It 'a story he worked on in the late evening Peppe Di Stefano. According to sources close to Ramirez filters, then the deal is already closed. Expect only the last bank guarantees, performance bonds on the agreed amount, but this time missing very little. Only the latest details. Ramirez is outside the EU, will serve a work permit to play in England. To that tomorrow will be in Rome for the visa, between Thursday and Friday will be in England. The medical examination would be expected in Italy, with the staff of the Saints arriving in the next few hours. This time, missing very little ..

shurlock Posted 26 August, 2012 Share Posted 26 August, 2012 Never bought the argument that the Bologna chairman would blink first. Logically we have the stronger hand but when has logic mattered.
