They arent obliged to both accept an offer and pay him loyalty bonuses. Im surprised they didn't because they've ended up much worse off but its 1 hell of a cheek to think you are both entitled to a move and to all the loyalty paymentsStirlingBlue wrote: Wed Sep 16, 2026 8:23 am ...but for all of those offers Spurs were unwilling to pay him his contracted payments

Re: Richarlison
I think they are obliged under the way contracts are worded though, the loyalty bonus is only forfeited if a player formally hands in a transfer request - which is why so few players do it.777Kidnappings wrote: Wed Sep 16, 2026 6:13 pm They arent obliged to both accept an offer and pay him loyalty bonuses.

Yeah my point is you cant really complain about not getting a move if youre not willing to give a little to get itStirlingBlue wrote: Thu Sep 17, 2026 9:33 am I think they are obliged under the way contracts are worded though, the loyalty bonus is only forfeited if a player formally hands in a transfer request - which is why so few players do it.
Yes hes entitled to a loyalty bonus if spurs want to sell him but spurs are also entitled to decide that deal doesn't suit and keep him. Weird 1 because no one has given an inch and everyone has lost significantly

Re: Richarlison
I think his situation was that he'd like a move if it suited the club, since they clearly wanted rid of him - but if not he'd keep playing. Same thing happened last summer and when he didn't get his move he played 30+ games for them.777Kidnappings wrote: Thu Sep 17, 2026 11:26 am Yeah my point is you cant really complain about not getting a move if youre not willing to give a little to get it

This summer they're trying to force him out to recoup some funds before he goes on a free, and they're trying to save money by not paying his loyalty payments by threatening to not play him. He called their bluff and they both lose out

Re: Richarlison
I'd love to be in a position where I could sit on my arse for a year and collect £100k a week. AFAIK, they haven't even given him a squad number this season have they, so he's clearly way, way down the pecking order and highly unlikely to be seen in a Tottenham shirt again. They can strip him of his squad number, but they cannot stop paying his wages.777Kidnappings wrote: Thu Sep 17, 2026 11:26 am Yeah my point is you cant really complain about not getting a move if youre not willing to give a little to get it

Re: Richarlison
One of the few Spurs players that gave a shit and dug in last season. They've treated him like shit since. I'd be demanding what's owed to me too.

Re: Richarlison
Yeah, regardless of your opinions of him as a footballer, he gave them 100% last season and they want to screw him on what he’s owed.
