Barcelona have told Frenkie de Jong they want to annul his existing contract and return to the deal he was on before, alleging the terms given to him by the club’s previous board involved criminality and provide grounds for legal action against those involved.

Braithwaite is the nephew and business partner of the Danish-born, American-based, real estate developer Gareth Roger James Smith.

You are thinking of Flamini.
According to Forbes, Mathieu Flamini net worth is $14 billion. He is the co-owner of GF Biochemicals, a biochemical company which produces Levulinic Acid, a molecule pulled from plant waste and can serve as a substitute for petrol. He runs the company alongside his partner Pasquale Granata.

I didn't know anything about German football and I just found out that Bayern Munich are 1/6 to win the 1 Bundesliga this year and have won it for the last 10 years. They have won the German league 32 times with 31 wins in the Bundesliga era (since 1964). And I thought Scottish football was uncompetitive lol.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundesliga

The Bundesliga is the number one football league in the world in terms of average attendance; out of all sports, its average of 45,134 fans per game during the 2011–12 season was the second-highest of any sports league in the world after the American NFL. The Bundesliga is broadcast on television in over 200 countries.

Bayern's record against VfB Stuttgart is 90 wins, 28 draws and 36 losses.

https://www.bundesliga.com/en/bunde...iga-is-the-world-s-best-supported-league-3745

Borussia Dortmund lead the way in terms of individual clubs, with their average in excess of 80,000 per match ranking them ahead of the likes of Manchester United, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

The Bundesliga also has the highest goal-per-game ratio and the lowest ticket prices in Europe's top 5 leagues! Standing is common in the Bundesliga, it's being brought back in the PL too.

After 6 years, he is still being considered. Good to know.

I’m surprised it took this long for his name to pop up again.
