Summer mercato 2024

[Aficio]

I just wonder whether Toulouse can buy Simic?

But they showed up. That's my point. They were there. These guys have literally failed to show up. They are MIA

Well, I just say it generally
Maybe without their appearance is better for all parties, and easier to get rid of them.

But contracts go both ways. You pay someone a salary for a service. It may be hard (impossible) to get rid of them because their service sucks (for example, Origi sucks). But it shouldn't be impossible to get rid of them if they simply choose NOT to provide the service they are getting paid for.

I don't know. I don't think any labor law would alow for something like that. With that said, Origi and FBT may have a leg to stand on because of Milan Futuro. I guess technically they signed a contract with Milan to play (train) with Milan. Not Milan Futuro. So in that sense, if they were only called up to report for training by Milan Futuro and not by Milan, then they may be "ok" and are not in breach of their contract terms.

Either way, there's gotta be something. Because I don't believe you can just refuse to show up for work without consequences.

If they refuse to show up for work in perpetuity, then for sure the club has a case to terminate their deals. What I am saying is, they can't terminate anything if the players miss a few days of work. And if they threaten to terminate the deals, those morons will just show up and train half ass to avoid getting their deals terminated

They are not. They were told they were not in our plans and we are hoping to send then away somehow. I found this, at least regarding Origi:

"As MilanNews writes, Origi has returned from his loan spell but he is not a part of Milan’s plans and has not been seen at Milanello since the preseason began. There is an agreement with the club to train privately while waiting for an offer which has not yet arrived."

If this is true, it's not like he just decided not to show up - I guess then we could probably have fired him. The club doesn't want him anywhere near the training ground or the rest of the squad.

I think that's the plan, to try and push them out. It might have the opposite affect though and make them stay and earn their insane salaries for doing nothing. They are players with little or no sporting ambitions it seems.

Bogarde, stayed like three years in Chelsea just training. They got him on a lucrative contract, from us, he wasn't good or motivated and no clubs could pay him the same wages so he just showed up for training until his contract ran out.

Morata transfer confirmed. Official.

[Leoni9900]

Colombo, now 22, going out on yet another loan - this time to Empoli. Either keep him or sell as unfair on Colombo who wasted a good part of his career bouncing around on endless loans.

I would have kept Colombo this year and not resigned Jovic. Give the kid a chance, he’s from our Primavera. What’s the worst that could happen?

Thank you. Makes sense. This is the part that I was missing. I guess I went by what Zlatan said initially when he literally told the media "they are called up, but for Milan Futuro". 

Hopefully they find a club and leave asap
