Seen a few people mention its a difficult deal - How can it be if Chelsea signed a player from them? * Apologies if this has already been posted/answered* It was difficult initially because he was a Shakhtar player, on loan at Lyon. So we had to pay Lyon enough to be happy to cancel their loan deal, pay Shakhtar our own loan fee and agree personal terms with Tete. If we were also arranging an option or obligation to buy, that further complicates things. And his contract with Shakhtar runs until 31st Dec I think, so it means trying to sign him in the summer isn't totally easy either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally, with most loans (Unless its a young kid going out for experience) there's an obligation or first option - Would like to think Rudkin has this in place aswell?!

So presumably we have a 17.5m Euro option on Tete now? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen a few people mention its a difficult deal - How can it be if Chelsea signed a player from them? * Apologies if this has already been posted/answered* The difference between Tete and Mudryk is that non Ukrainian players were allowed to pause their contracts and get the fvck out of there. Ukrainian players were not. So Mudryk was just a signing of a Ukrainian player from a a Ukrainian club. Tete being Brazilian meant his contract was paused, so his contract is still owned by Shaktar, and I believe it is on pause until the end of this year, but he was able to find another club and play on loan. As for the option to buy clause, I'm not sure, but it should all become clearer in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 6 February 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 6 February 2023 I still can't get my head around what the difference was for Tete to have his contract suspended and therefore no permanent transfer can be agreed until the summer and the likes of Neres and Dodo who transferred permanently last summer from Shaktar to Benfica and Fiorentina. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is as good as he looks, we’ll be outbid in fees and wage offers. ...it will be down to the player!!! We were looking at him when he became available!!! He chose to go to Lyon when there were other options, not sure if they were the first one to show interest and it was him just being grateful for the interest shown.

copunk Posted 6 February 2023 Share Posted 6 February 2023 Going from his first appearance I'm just happy to enjoy him while we can Everyone can see he has unreal ability and will terrify defenders when he's running at them No doubt in my mind he will go on to play for a "bigger" club If we manage to get in permanently and have him for a season or so it will be a bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were their contracts suspended? or maybe Lyon decided to do a loan with option instead of a purchase with SD’s agreement. I’m sure if all three parties agree, then fifa will cancel the suspension of the contract. anyway, I’ll try and find out on Saturday if there is an option and if so, how complicated it is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only presume Tete pushed for being able to flee Ukraine and playing elsewhere so he actioned the suspension of the contract and Shaktar obviously wanted to protect their asset. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSpaM Posted 7 February 2023 Share Posted 7 February 2023 Personally going to give him a few games before pronouncing him the greatest player of all time Yes he looked good, but plenty of players do on their debut Every top team in Europe should already be aware of players like this if they are that good, they aren't going to see one game for Leicester and go "Who is this guy, we have to sign him immediately" If he's being scouted by other teams, we would have been well aware of that before he signed, and had something in his contract with us to stop him just being poached if he does end up being decent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
