That's a lot of money.

It would get you 2 years of A-Rod in his biggest deal.

It'd get you about 120 games of LeBron James on your NBA team.

It's more than Rory McIlroy made in 2016.

It's 50% more than Man U paid for Rooney when he was established with Everton.

It's what Real Madrid paid for one 16 year-old who score 7 goals at the U-17 World Cup (and has played 1 game for his first team in Brazil) for the rights for him to play for their team in the 2019 - 2020 season.

The soccer transfer market is absolutely insane right now.

Just to put that in perspective, at the same age:  Pato was ~$5M; Walcott was ~$3M; Donnarumma was ~$5M; Lukaku was ~$12M.  Those were all within the past decade.

The international transfer market has lost its marbles.

Griezmann's transfer fee is going to be insane.  Sucks -- I'd love to see Athletico continue to push Barca and Real...
