Richmondfox Posted 31 January 2023 Share Posted 31 January 2023 This move will suit him, but Man City never get made to pay top price so not great for the club. If he goes to Man City then that will be no more free kicks again like Mahrez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking resale given thier age I.e. 25/26 and if they are that talented like mahrez and maddison clearly are then there eill still be money to be made even if its significantly less that their previous contracts.

Imo of course.. You only get a sell on percentage on anything more than you sold them for. Therefore they're generally worthless when selling a 26yo to an elite level club. Either they're a success and stay and possibly get sold at 30 for less money or they flop and get sold for less money. You won't find many examples of a player being bought at 26 and getting sold for more money further down his career. Eg sell to Man City for £60m, they sell for £80m and the 20% sell on clause is worth £4m not £16m. Edited 31 January 2023 by Gerard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glorious Leicester Fan Posted 2 February 2023 Share Posted 2 February 2023 I apologise if this is old news, but Man City apparently put an offer in for him: https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-city-james-maddison-transfer-26131862?fbclid=IwAR1Xw4pVwTvENpgQ3Jbnd2sklKLG-QZYW4LKccgGBj4LfS4S5WIHH2SJAzo#ldn69j7aei639dvjf3j 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingkisnorbo Posted 2 February 2023 Share Posted 2 February 2023 It'll be Manchester City. They are remarkably efficient and fast when they know what they want. It's the least offensive option to me. Manchester City of all the potential suitors are impossible to care about which is good when losing a player like this. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc_forever Posted 2 February 2023 Share Posted 2 February 2023 Yeah, a journalist suggested it was a loan deal initially with an option to buy, incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambert09 Posted 2 February 2023 Share Posted 2 February 2023 the problem with him going to man city, is that given his contract situation… i don’t think they would pay the most. I think you’d be able to get newcastle to throw a lot more at you 70m+ from them… man city will probably start at 50 and only go to 60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted 2 February 2023 Share Posted 2 February 2023 No one is going to question Maddison's ability , he is undoubtedly one of the most skilful midfielders in the PL. Why some clubs will be wary is his availability . and paying a lot of money for an injury prone player is never a good idea.That is why Man.City were reluctant to commit.

Im not suyre anyone is stupid enough to try that with Man city, they seem to always get a clear path to players. Plus once someone knows they want them, they wont want to go anywhere else. Even the mahrez fee was pathetic for what he was worth. Edited 2 February 2023 by Lambert09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westernpark Posted 2 February 2023 Share Posted 2 February 2023 With his injury record I can’t see us getting over 50 million, coupled with his contract situation. 45 million gets him I reckon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His injury record isn't actually that bad, not great but certainly not any worse than Harry Kane for example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Away Move Posted 2 February 2023 Share Posted 2 February 2023 If Man Utd come in for him would that be his preferred destination? Seeing as he idolised Beckham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
