A key contract in Liverpool star Robert Firmino suggests that Arsenal should not generate its launch fee.
Michael Edwards, Liverpool Sports Director, is responsible for overseeing club transfer policies and is in regular contact with Mike Gordon, president of Fenway Sports Group.
Edwards was very important in signing personalities such as Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk. Now it has been shown that he has written a clause in the Treaty of Firmin, which has prevented Arsenal from rejecting his release fee after a Brazilian travel ticket was transferred from Hoffenheim in 2015.
The provision clause of £ 82.6 million that any club, except the Gunners could throw, was a direct response to Luis Suárez's unintentional offer of £ 40,000,000 while he was in Liverpool in 2013.
Joe Jordan, who worked with Edwards in Portsmouth as assistant manager Harry Redknapp, revealed through Express how Edwards is doing his daily tasks at Anfield.
"Michael does not make any abbreviation, he makes sure when he is warned to look at it and get the correct data and figures," he revealed.
"He wants to make sure that if this player submits to the manager, all the information is in place.
"They are different today 20 years ago.
"Then the coach or trainer ends the training, jumps into the car and jumps to Lancashire, for example, to look at the player.
"Not long ago because the player plays in Cologne or Buenos Aires.
"The work done in the background is huge and tries to ensure that the manager can do his job in the training field with the players he wants.
"Michael is very professional and works well."
