No one believed that Renato Veiga might severely be leaving simply 6 months after we purchased him, for instance. When the concept was first raised 3 weeks in the past it sounded foolish. But right here we’re,

However the numbers required to signal Felix or Duran completely make switch sound very bold for this late within the window.
