Portuguese Sports Chairman talked about the rumors of Yorke's transfer and denied reaching a gentleman agreement of 60 million + 10 million euros with the players' camp.
The chairman of Portuguese Sports said: "I need to explain this matter. Sports director Viana is responsible for communicating with the player's agent. The agent wants to know whether we will insist on a 100 million termination fee in 2025. The consensus reached at that time was that we will not ask for this number. After all, he will be at least 27 years old by then. In addition, we also know that the players want to join a Champions League team. We can understand and guarantee that they will not ask for 100 million euros."
"At that meeting, the agent wanted to set the price on a specific number, and he said 60 million, 70 million. And I said there is no need to set a number because I don't know what will happen in the next year, whether he will be injured, whether his performance will be disappointing, there is no need to set a death number. I am not sure whether it will be 40 million, 60 million or 80 million, but I can guarantee that we will not ask for 100 million."
"I have never talked to my agent about the transfer price since then. I saw various news in the media 10 months later, but Portuguese is reasonable and pledged that we don't want 100 million, but we will also adjust the asking price based on the player's performance. He is one of the best players in the Portuguese League ever. "
"Some people know me, blackmail threat is useless, I can guarantee that Yorke will not leave the team for 60 million + 10 million. I have never made such a promise. The agent's playing this trick will only make things worse. So far, we have not received any offer about Yorke. "
