Jeez he never scored goals like that for us. He's getting better and better.
Is it I thoughtc Doug got the original deal changed from euros to pounds.
There is another 3million pounds or euros possible add ons does anyone know what for ?

24 in 27 in all comps at Sporting. Incredible form. I dare say he’s not really being tested at this point. Either that or he’s going to be genuinely world class.
I have read but can’t find it now that he is being offered a new contract with a 120 million buy out claus.
It could get a lot better
I thought he’d do well, but not this well. Fair play to him… and fair play to Robins for spotting the talent that Brighton and Swansea couldn’t see.. bet they must be kicking themselves too
Remember when loads of our fans thought he wasn’t worth a million even though he managed a few goals playing in sub appearances on the left wing, while on loan for half a season at a champ club fighting to stay up?
Those people now don’t rate Haji Wright.

The talk in early January was a new contract with €150m buyout. The fact it’s not a done deal tells me he’s probably leaving for €100m in the summer.
Think we will just get 15% of any fee we get over what Porto paid us be it Euros or pounds.
The point Is was trying to make relates to probability of sale and hence the probability of achieving the add on. Clearly more likely that a sell on offer of €100m will be reached than $150m.
Probably but it depends how many care in for him, get a bit of an auction going who knows, but wouldn’t turn my nose up at 100mill
It’s not your nose that is the issue. If someone offers €100m euro and Vik wants to go, Sporting have no choice but to let him go and pay us the add on. Increasing the sell on reduces the chances of that happening and us getting the cash. Increase the sell on by all means, but pay us the add on
You want them to pay out on a sell on clause without them selling him on?
I'm quite surprised anyone didn't expect him to do so well. The quality of his opposition is lower on average than he had when with us and his team mates are more helpful to him than they were here. He no longer has to get past several players by himself. He chose wisely on where he went.
Not getting excited on what we may receive yet. All good if he sees them as a stepping stone to better things. But if he chose them because it's where he wants to be and they want to keep him and they do well in Europe why would they want to sell him? He wasn't interested in moving anywhere else.
If they've got Porto to pay then Sporting Lisbon really have negotiated a great deal
You have to look at Bruno fernandes at Man Utd. He made a big impact for sporting and managed to get a big move. Dare I say it that Gyokeres is making a bigger impact than Bruno did?
Sorry keep getting Porto & Sporting mixed upIf they've got Porto to pay then Sporting Lisbon really have negotiated a great deal

I thought the Brighton bit was paid but still £9million is better than a smack in the eye & added to the Hamer fee still makes a decent transfer war chest
I keep hearing that, Portugal for a country of just a population of just over 10 million have produced in my football life time about half a. dozen players dubbed best in the world and there are a number of top players in our PL
I swear it’s the beaches that do it. That and the crushing poverty.
Some of the superstars that have come from Portugal is endless. Eusebio, Figo, Rui Costa, Ronaldo,
