1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 14th According to Portuguese media Records, the competition between Portuguese and Yorke’s agent team is becoming increasingly fierce, especially on the terms of the contract signed in the summer of 2023.
At that time, at the request of the agent, the two parties signed a five-year contract (until 2028), with the termination fee reaching the highest record in the history of Alvarad Stadium – 100 million euros. If the Swedish striker’s agent submits a fixed offer of €60 million and is rejected, he will be entitled to 10% of the amount (i.e. €6 million).
Coincidentally, this amount is the lowest price for Yorkress transfer this summer, reached behind the scenes. Given that the negotiations are deadlocked and that this right may be implemented at any time (Arsenal made a fixed €55 million plus a floating €10 million during its first contact), Portuguese has also set its own bottom line. That is, if they don’t feel that the player representatives are willing to negotiate according to the conditions they have proposed, the club will directly raise the price of Yorke to the termination level. Portuguese can be priced at 80 million euros, not necessarily a completely fixed amount. For example, the club is willing to discuss a plan for a fixed €70 million plus a floating €10 million.
