Unless it was agreed in the contract that the release clause could be spread, Cunha it was reported it said three payments but United wanted to make five.

I assume that lowering the release clause wouldn't negatively affect Vik, so Sporting could lower it if they wanted, but not raise it as that could affect him.
They could hint that they might lower it to get some interest, but could then raise it again up to the stated contract amount if it suited them, which I assume is what might be happening.

Portugal and Spain have release clauses for legal and taxation reasons. Lameries had a 50m clause. However players and agents can negotiate a termination clause within the contract which is the lower amount

Cunha plays 10 & they still need a 9.
But, despite Amorim knowing him, I would still expect him to play for a team in the Champions League.

Vik is going to a champions league team as a minimum. So Man U never had a chance
