Guys, guys. It’s happening. Real Madrid are going to make a bid for Tottenham’s Harry Kane, according to Don Balon, and the numbers are ‘really spectacular’.
At least, that’s what the Spanish website are claiming on Friday, as Florentino Pérez has everything planned down to a T, including how much the England international’s release clause will be.
Alright, we know you’re eager to find out how much it is, so we won’t keep you in suspense any longer.
It’s *channels inner Dr. Evil* ONE BILLION EUROS.
That shouldn’t come as a surprise, however, considering that’s the amount of the clauses in both Cristiano Ronaldo’s and Karim Benzema’s current deals.
Now that we know how much future clubs will need to pay him once he’s left Wembley and moved to Real Madrid, we need to know how much he’ll be earning.
Don’t worry, Don Balon have that covered too, revealing Harry Kane will see his wage go up to £250k/week before tax.
Considering the top tax rate in Spain is 52%, that means he’ll be walking away with £120k/week, at least before creative accounting.
“But wait, you haven’t told us how much Real Madrid will pay Tottenham!”
Relax, it’s coming.
Don Balón enlighten us here as well, giving us the detail that it’ll be more than €200m, and probably more than the €222m Paris Saint-Germain paid for Neymar.
Cheers, guys. Helpful.
