Either Schellas spoke publicly too soon, or River is playing coy, trying to drive up the price.
The comments section on the article I read doesn’t make us sound very good, either. (Chamo, I don’t really speak Spanish – In the last article, did one of them say, “Those Yankees don’t even know who he is”?)
I don’t blame them – if this guy is as popular as he sounds I wouldn’t want to lose him.
Moose, it’s just a fan asking his FO to not let their player go to some unknown “yankee” club.
Fans are fans wherever you go.
