5 amazing players with cheap release clauses
A buyout clause or release clause refers to a clause in a contract which states the amount of money you need to pay when you want to buy a player who has a contract running with another club. Basically, it is a clause that stipulates what must happen if another club wants to buy the player from his current club. The most important thing in the release clause is the fee which needs to be paid to compensate the current club.
This clause is a way of securing your player from the interest of other clubs. Because of that, many teams set very high release clauses for their main players. However, clubs often make mistakes and put a low release clause for a player who then becomes an integral part of their team. In this article, we bring you a list of 5 amazing players with low release clauses.
#5 Kostas Manolas (AS Roma)
Clause: £32 million
This list starts with Kostas Manolas, the 27-year-old centre-back from AS Roma. Since coming to the Italian club, the Greek international has established himself as one of the best centre-backs in the game.
His marking and tackling attributes make him an absolute rock in Roma's defence. In addition to that, his positioning also stands out.
Nowadays, the prices for defenders regularly go up to £50 million. Manolas' release clause amounts to £32 million, which looks like a real bargain on the market.
If your team needs a strong and assured defender for a relatively low amount of money, then there is no better option than Manolas. He can be a quality addition to any top European club.
He has already been a target of Arsenal and Chelsea. The latest club that is interested in signing him is Manchester United, the team which has big problems in their defence.
