Denis Suárez fee (Marca): £850k now, £685k next year, £685k per first team game up to 10 apps. Total: £8.4m + 20% of next sale + 1st option.

@City_Watch

I know there's a Twitter thread ( sorry Gillie ) just thought this was relevant to this thread.

Sad he didn't get more of an opportunity here. Best of luck Denis.

One that may come back to bite us. Quality young player - we shouldn't be selling future prospects.

Fee rising to 7 million (not sure if Euros or Pounds) reportedly, if certain criteria are met, with a 20% sell-on fee. Not bad at all, in my opinion (although admittedly there's no sell-on fee if he goes from Barca B to Barca).

The best outcome for everyone. He is a long way behind Nasri, Silva, Jovetic, & would soon be overtaken by Lopez & Pozo.

If we had a B team playing in the Championship, then he could have stayed, but he didn't do enough pre season to merit a place in the 1st team setup, in front of other young players, & he needs to be playing football.

A young lad happily flying off to Barca, with a big smile, saying 'thanks for everything' is a great advert for our youth setup; showing that we try to look after our kids & do the best for them, even if we can't use them.

Not long till we have a 'B' team in New York. We might push harder to keep these lads when we do.

Good deal for us overall though.
