Some rumours deal is €65MM plus €15MM in add ons for Joao Felix.

Might be worth a punt if it’s €0 plus €80m in add ons
€20m if he’s still here 12 months after signing
€20m if he’s made 50 appearances in the first 2 seasons
Another €20m if he’s made 80 appearances for us in the first 2 seasons and €20m if he wins a trophy with us at any point….

Joao Felix in today’s market absolutely should cost around £50MM plus. He’s 24 and a brilliant player. He’s not remotely close to us bringing in Coutinho who was at the end of his career.

More importantly Felix is available because him and the manager have issues. Coutinho had years of injury problems and his club were cutting there losses. He was a £15-20m gamble who would add something if we could get enough games out of him.

Felix is a talent that can still be one of the best players in the world if we can coax it out of him.

sell Duran, sign Felix and get in another number 9 and that'll do... Felix on a loan would be preferible

We're still being linked with sock-cutter Connor Gallagher.
The Berkshire Todd Cantwell, hopefully no substance to this .

In accounting MM or mm is millions. Single M is thousands.

Little k, big M is much more commonly used now than MM. At least all the financial statements etc that I look at work that way.

K is from the Greek prefix for kilo or thousand. So more as an instrument to measure weight than used in finance. It has made its way into denoting thousands outside of its original intent. In all financial statements I review, and granted it might be different in the UK, M is measurement of thousands, MM is millions.
