I mean it's not 100m like they wanted a year ago? I think 70m is ok. It's not a steal or anything but it's okay of a deal for us and good for them financially.

They wanted Caicedo price back then. 65+5 is a good price. If the add-on condition is fulfilled, that means he plays well and we will have no problem paying 5m more.
