Talk:Ezequiel Garay

Madrid
I had to change the introduction which stated that he "currently plays for Real Madrid". That is not correct. He is still a Racing de Santander´s player until June 30th. It is true that it has been said that he has already signed a contract with Real Madrid, but that does not mean that he already plays for them, but that he is going to be part of that team since July 1st. --83.213.86.68 (talk) 13:31, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

he is now real madrdid's player as he played for them in the valencia game on 4/23. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27kjmm (talk • contribs) 17:07, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Games for Real
Come on he's played quite a few games for Real actually, because according to a match! magazine he was listed in a Real dream team for next season —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.148.31.56 (talk) 12:46, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Benfica?
Who wrote that he currently plays for Benfica and gave shirt number 19 on his profile?? Where is your source for this? There has been no OFFICIAL communication to say Benfica have acquired Garay for next season. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.152.238.35 (talk) 13:34, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Benfica needs rewriting
This section needs rewriting so it can make sense. Rui &#39;&#39;Gabriel&#39;&#39; Correia (talk) 23:29, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

I have improved it a little bit but it still sucks. Fixed4u (talk) 06:28, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

Zenit transfer
Benfica sold Garay to Zenit for €6 million - "A Sport Lisboa e Benfica – Futebol, SAD (...) informa que chegou a acordo com o FC Zenit para a transferência a título definitivo dos direitos desportivos e económicos do atleta Ezequiel Marcelo Garay Gonzalez, pelo montante de €6.000.000 (seis milhões de euros) (...)". That means Benfica made €2.4 with this transfer, and this is why this caused controversy. Fixed4u (talk) 17:12, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * There is no controversy. Zenit paid €15m. Your own source states Benfica received €6m for a 40% share. I have two further sources which state this. Meanwhile, you are providing an unreliable foreign language source. Stop making further edits. RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 17:40, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * There was controversy in the media and among fans but it's irrelevant. S.L. Benfica announcement to CMVM doesn't state the club received 40%, it states the club received a total of €6 million. Benfica's reports to CMVM and newspaper Record are reliable. Language doesn't matter, learn Portuguese language or translate it using Google. Stop making further edits or provide reliable sources. Fixed4u (talk) 18:05, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * "provide reliable sources" - Benfica's own press-release, The Independent and ESPN vs... what on earth is Record? "learn Portuguese" - this is the English language Wikipedia. If you want to add erroneous edits, go to the Portuguese Wikipedia and make them with your sources. Don't make any further edits to the page without reliable sources as I have provided, and don't revert my edit which includes reliable sources. RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 18:18, 20 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Not a single newspaper in Portugal mentioned a transfer of €15 million and they know Benfica better than Independent or ESPN. Fixed4u (talk) 18:30, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

I have found another Portuguese source stating that Daily Mail wrongly mentioned a transfer of €15 million and that Benfica would have liked it to happen. Fixed4u (talk) 19:08, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

No official source claims €15M! 85.246.179.195 (talk) 03:03, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Benfica 6 million, Zenit 15 millions it seems.1
 * You're talking about rumours I'm using official source. 85.246.179.195 (talk) 13:44, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Use reliable source please, User:RealDealBillMcNeal. To ip user, bleacherreport is not quite reliable as it accepted other people to submit their work, in theory peer-reviewed by senior editors. Matthew_hk   t  c  13:27, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Reliable sources like Benfica, who said they received €6m which amounted to 40% of the transfer fee. RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 16:04, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Can you read? A parcela atribuível à Sport Lisboa e Benfica – Futebol, SAD, representando 40% dos direitos económicos do atleta Ezequiel Marcelo Garay Gonzalez, ascende a € 2.400.000 (dois milhões e quatrocentos mil euros). Football Leak also had the transfer document but not sure reliable or not. Matthew_hk   t  c  11:20, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
