AL-AHLI SOLD GABRI VEIGA… AND LOOK WHAT’S HAPPENING NOW 👀🇪🇸
Al-Ahli sold Gabri Veiga to Porto last summer for €19M… and guess what?
@FabrizioRomano already said back in February that Veiga is one to watch this summer, with clubs already interested.
Pretty clear where this is going… They’ll likely sell him for no less than €40M — and the great part? Al-Ahli still hold a 10% sell-on share.
One thing to admit… Portuguese clubs know exactly how to negotiate and sell for huge fees.
