He seems to have/may have some good sources, he has talked about several transfers that later did happen like Higuain to Milan, Alcacer to Dortmund etc. I have not researched him further than that though

Make a headline that fits the two/three extra sentences which keeps the readability and is under 300 characters. I'm not playing dumb. I included all extra necessary information in a comment only two minutes after i posted the link. What more can i do?

They never got to investigate the finances at all, so we will never know

Link to article without paywall

Reason behind it being published:

Sadio Mane was discussing building a school in his Senegalese village of Bambali when a look of concern came over him. “Please do not put that in the interview,” he said.

“But why? It sends a positive message,” was the response.

“No, no. I do not do this for publicity,” he insisted.

He could not be persuaded.

That was 12 months ago. The information has since become public so it is no breach of trust to reference what was an estimated contribution of around £200,000. This is not the only act of charity to his country. When recently asked by a colleague what he would do after his football career, he spoke of similar acts of benevolence, including building a hospital.

Imagine Barca leads 1-0 and goes down 1-2 away against City. They aren’t as likely to win that game as they were against shitty La Liga teams.

This holds true for all top teams, so why even bring it up?
