Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but apparently we have to pay £200,000 compensation for O'Hare to Villa. Not saying we shouldn't buy him, but it does make it more of a gamble.
I thought compensation only applies if the player is offered a contract by their club which they turn down? Villa are apparently not offering him a contract so he would be free. That said I'm sure his agent will ramp up any signing on fee.

More than worthwhile to pay that fee. I'd say want he wants in wages is far more important regarding the risk. Hopefully won't be asking an extortionate amount but he may have been on a decent wedge at Villa even as a back-up/reserve and may be a wage cut to join us from there.

They offered him two new contracts as far as I'm aware and he rejected both, at which point Villa decided not to go back with a third and released him at the end of his contract.

Agree with that and think we should sign him. Just slightly cringing at the twitterati acting as if he will be our savour for next season. To survive we're going to need our attack to improve, which I'm sure Robins recognises.

Not quite... He would have played his 5th game for Wigan u23s, after not being able to break into the 1st team, when we hit the magic ton

Think with the coronavirus situation the security of a contract could be a big incentive to sign asap.

If Callum O'hare is free now, just wondering if there are any developments or updates about his signing for us ? Very quiet so far.....
