Is this guy for real?
I guess you rather put him in a SEP, with a PPL Pilot who is a plumber. McKay does not come out of this very well. Sala was in his care, until he was supposed to join up with Cardiff.
Published e-mail from McKay to Sala.

'We do not say 'we are like a father to a son to our players'. No, if you had not been a footballer, these people would not be interested in you.

'In the end they are only interested in the money. What we all want a lot of, of course. That's why we like to work with just the clubs. No sentiment, we're just doing business.'

He had no interest in Sala’s welfare, it was just “business”
