  3. fuck darmanin, but do you know why these taxes were even applicable in the first place? because laliga refused psg’s money for neymars release clause pulling out some dubious shenanigans, just to stall out the transfer until the window would’ve closed.

    so they had to transfer the money first to neymar’s account, who then payed his own release clause and thus circumventing the only thing making laliga’s case hold some ground. and exactly this transfer from psg to neymar was subject to these enorm taxes and obviously the club tried to reason by arguing how much tax income his salary would create.

    shady? absolutely, the rich playing by another book is always shitty, but that whole drama could’ve been avoided if tebas didn’t whine like a little child after taking away his toy…
