Christantus Uche leaving Getafe?
Mundo Deportivo reports on the transfer situation of Christantus Uche as a solution for Getafe's 'Fair Play' issue. The sale of Christantus Uche is the only option for Getafe to solve the 'Fair Play' issue and have the margin to register all new signings. If Uche is sold for 20 million, it would mean a 4.1 million euro impact in 'fair play' terms. Uche played 90 minutes against Valencia, and his transfer needs to be completed by September 1st to register new players.
The president of Getafe, Ángel Torres, mentioned that Christantus Uche has offers and needs to decide his future. He indicated that the transfer is almost finalized, pending a medical examination and signing. The transfer fee is rumored to be 20 million, which would resolve Getafe's issues under the Financial Fair Play regulations, allowing them to register new players. However, the team's coach, Bordalás, expressed his opposition to Uche leaving, emphasizing his importance to the team.
According to Diario As, Christantus Uche will move to the Premier League for 20 million euros. The Nigerian forward is leaving Getafe immediately, and the club is already working on registering several players for the match against Sevilla.
A sale of Christantus Uche for 20 million euros would leave 4.1 million euros for Getafe. This includes 20% of the total sale and 60% of the player's salary, which is around 180,000 euros. The club would receive 5 million euros if the buying club pays the player's release clause.
The imminent sale of the Nigerian Uche to a Premier League club is mentioned as part of the transfer dynamics freeing up salary space for Luka Jovic at Getafe.
Christantus Uche is another key option for Sporting de Lisboa to reinforce their attack due to his versatility in playing both forward and midfield positions. Uche has shown strength and skill, allowing him to adapt to different offensive positions and generate and finish plays. Sporting de Lisboa's interest is part of their search for a reliable replacement for Viktor Gyökeres.
