The 'Money' Logic

In the text, we see how a club manages money. Notice these two opposite actions:

  • Bought (Spent money) \rightarrow The club bought Bernardo Silva.
  • Sold (Received money) \rightarrow ...sold him to Como 1907.

Talking About the Future (Possibility)

When we aren't 100% sure, we use might. It is softer than "will."

They might sell Camavinga.

(This means: Maybe they sell him, maybe they don't.)


Simple Desire

To say you want something, use: Person + wants to + action
