Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

I don't know if it's true or not, but you have to have evidence if you say this stuff.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

You can't just say, you know, these narratives that people chuck out there, especially in times of war when there's so many unknowns, I think are really, really irresponsible.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

um you just hope that all these people stay safe and i think you appreciate the normality of women and men being able to play sports and this gets taken away from them

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

It's time!

It's time!

It's Texter time!

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

Aries, the fund who wisely loaned our pal John Texter money and now controlled the assets since he didn't pay them back in time, or in some cases at all, is figuring out what to do with the clubs.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

RWDM Brussels, which, of course...

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

Our hero, John Texter, briefly renamed as Daring Brussels, which is actually Molenbeek, right?

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

It is Molenbeek, yeah.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

They're up for sale.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

Botafogo might be up for sale as well, although they need to go and open up all the books because how much of Botafogo's assets are actually Leon assets and the other way around, it's not clear.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

Lyon probably won't be, at least for now, George, because it's worth a lot less than it could be, right?

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

one option for Aries is to just keep the shares and let Michelle Kang.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

Or maybe sell them to Michelle Kang.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

Although of course, Michelle Kang at that point would say like, all right, but then I get these at a discount or whatever.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

So I mean,

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

Yeah, OK, I thought this was a little weird.

ESPN FC
Gab & Juls Show: No Mbappe, No Problem for Real Madrid

but he says that messi he says like you know i meaning inter not you inter miami but obviously he's the i think he's the majority shareholder yeah he says so we he costs we give him 70 to 80 million dollars every year but he's worth every penny um so i thought how does he get to that number so i thought it was interesting and this kind of gives you an insight on how these people think so

ESPN FC

He has a $12.5 million base salary in MLS, and he makes probably up to $10 million in bonuses, depending on how the season goes.
