Foxin_Mad Posted 23 August 2023 Share Posted 23 August 2023 I am open to selling anyone at the correct price. Now in the later stages of the window id say 20million for Nacho but only if we have a plan who to bring in. Which we probably dont. Id rather concentrate on shifting the deadwood and bringing in another winger, then we are very almost there with the players coming back from injury too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athleti valued felix at £100m one season translates to be 20m on five year amortisation that’s where they got the 20m from what value player would we be looking at to replace kel ?

Slimani was a £30m player who we were amortising at £6m/season kel is currently worth around £10m max for because he’s out of contract next summer So he’s not available for a loan anyway why are we discussing kel’s loan value ??

It would take a stupid offer we couldn't refuse. I'd be fascinated for the club to explain these decisions. What benefit did we receive for Tielemans running his contract down? Even had we stayed up, I'm not sure the club could use that as reason to have kept him. The cost of replacing him is from a starting point of zero, rather than x (the transfer fee received when sold). It's stupidity and very few clubs have ever benefitted from numerous important players running their contracts down. It's a masterclass is disaster. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I read somewhere that we didn't receive any offers for Tielemans last summer. If so, we didn't have much choice in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
