Hi Eds I know you hate talking figures but I'm wondering how do different news outlets come up with different figures for how much a player moves for?
For example with Mane, Chris Bascombe was adamant that the entire deal including future add ins, won't exceed 30mill. Bbc sport yesterday said 34mill and sky are now sayings its 36!
How can there be so many differing versions of the same story?!

{Ed002's Note - The figure will be known when it is registered with UEFA.}

Out of curiosity Ed002, are the numbers registered with UEFA inclusive of all possible add-ons or are those reported separately (or not reported at all? )?

{Ed002's Note - The raw initial transfer fee and then notification as bonuses/add ons are paid.}

Is there anyway that these fees can be accessed once they've been registered?

{Ed002's Note - By those who have access to the data, yes.}

I am not sure why the fees matter. I am sure everyone has paid too much for something before, as well as finding a bargain - just like Liverpool FC has. Does 30mil or 36mil matter too much if he is the player Klopp wants? Not to me.
