I don't think Sullla has changed, but rather he views Mali's past actions as having forfeited that sort of relationship.
Well, there's a couple things you left off - in the demogame PAL was clearly the #1 team during the time RB and Banana developed their close alliance, here Spullla is #1. Also Banana bordered PAL and thus was a natural rival, while Spullla and Danstki border; their relationship hasn't been great but it's pretty good compared to most of the other direct-neighbor relations.
That said, given how much Sullla (with some justification) complained about other teams in the demogame trading with PAL when they were leading, I'm surprised that he isn't working harder to get a swap here. The other comments about how a trade that on paper favors Dantski some still works out for Spullla vs. their main rivals are spot on. Even if Dantski's price is too high, it seems crazy for Spullla not to try to haggle/bargain him down some.
