"Under this premise, Nasri remains a valuable asset to the team, and simply letting him go is not wise from a commercial standpoint."
Belgistan deliberately emphasized the words "commercial standpoint" when he mentioned them.
It was obviously said for commercial director Belada to hear.
You are the commercial director, don't you know that players are listed as asset numbers in the team's financial reports?
Seeing Belada's indifferent demeanor, Belgistan patiently used a metaphor to explain to him:
You have many cars in your garage that you can't drive all at once. Do you choose to scrap one with a hammer, or sell it to a used car dealer?
Even if Nasri is a hopelessly battered car, he still has resale value!
However, Belada insisted on his view that Nasri must be released from the contract.
