The man is worth £25 million net, realistically £700k isn’t going to make much difference!
It's not £700k, is it? Liverpool seem to say he's getting £300k, so let's split the difference at £500k, each week. He was paid £200k a week at the dippers but he was payng tax on that, so his real income is £100k, each week and in Saudi,where there's no income tax it would £500, each week.
The value of a 52-week contract from 'salary' alone to him would go from £5.2m to £26m, probably worth more since the Saudis will be paying him in US$, which remains a stable currency.
If you're going to pillory a person, be sure you understand what you're pillorying him for.
And he's a MACKEM, not a Geordie, which is really unforgivable; although it suggests he's too thick to realise what he's giving up. Tough world.
