They would always have known that certain players could be targets for other clubs. Players in the last year of their deal are sending a clear message that they want out & clubs know that they will be cheaper !! im sure they do, but to get a replacement in and the whole deal wrapped up in 3 days, be nothing short of a miracle for us so the words no and chance come to mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Legend_in_blue Posted 29 August 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 29 August 2023 (edited) 37 minutes ago, Ian Nacho said: Long-term we’d be better off selling him now than losing for nothing next year, especially if we don’t go up. I'm not sure selling him now is a good look in terms of our promotion push. We shouldn't be thinking of what might happen if we don't go up, we should be putting everything behind the opposite of that. £15 million gained now having not replaced him adequately (or not at all) coupled with a heightened risk of not gaining promotion as this season plays out is far worse than £15 million lost as he walks away for nothing at the season end.

I'm not really sure the club have planned for anything for quite a while. It's not FM. They won't be sitting on their behinds doing nothing during their workdays. Of course we will have some targets lined up, but as we know very well, getting the right one, at the right time, for the right price is rarely easy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he might partner him? Tbf Awoniyi looked an absolute donkey until the second half of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens to every club, they don't all sell their African players. It's not for long, we'll cope like everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Maresca just does not want Daka anywhere near the team irrespective of whether a move is imminent or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silebyfox_89 Posted 29 August 2023 Share Posted 29 August 2023 Sell. I like Kels but for its purely a business decision. We cannot allow good players to leave on a free again, we should've got fees for youri & cags. If 15m is on the table you take it & reinvest in a replacement that Enzo wants. I don't think he'd down tools but he'll be gone for AFCON & won't want to get injured before end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the transfer window closes in three days and clubs will be unwilling to sell at this late stage, what makes you so confident that we'd be able to recruit a replacement that Enzo wants? And if we sold Iheancho, failed to adequately replace him and missed out on promotion, what kind of business decision would that be? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy wanted out from the moment we went down, so the prospect of him leaving this summer transfer window was nigh-on an inevitability. He was just a bench warmer to Maresca, nothing more. Daka, however, seems to have no future here either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were never going to buy a fourth striker and we could only have sold Daka or Iheanacho earlier in the summer if we’d had concrete offers, which it seems we didn’t.
