The newspaper "Manchester City Evening News" revealed that Manchester City is anticipating new financial gains during the summer transfer window, thanks to resale clauses that the club included in the contracts of a number of its former players.
The newspaper explained that City may benefit from the Norwegian player Oscar Bobb's transfer again, after his name was linked to a move to Roma following his joining Fulham last January.
In the event that the player is sold for a higher amount than his purchase value, Manchester City will receive 20% of the resale value, which could grant it about 600 thousand pounds sterling if the deal is completed for 30 million pounds sterling.
It added that the club is also monitoring the future of the Argentine Julián Álvarez with Atlético Madrid, amid interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona in signing him.
Manchester City holds a clause that grants it 10% of the value of any future sale deal, which means it could receive about 3 million pounds sterling if the player moves for 111 million pounds sterling.
The English newspaper confirmed that Manchester City's policy of including resale clauses has become an important source for enhancing the club's revenues, and could provide it with significant financial returns during the current mercato without the need to sell any player from its squad.
