I see Sporting Lisbon have paid us circa £2,5m as a one off to reduce the future percentage from 15% to 10% in terms of profit. They wouldn't do that if they didn't think he was off. Good news for us overall.
I’m wondering (hopefully) if this also explains the demonstratively tight lipped responses to transfer enquiries from the club? Basically, we’re about to spend a shit ton of money on players off the back of Vik’s sale…and we don’t want to tell you that.I see Sporting Lisbon have paid us circa £2,5m as a one off to reduce the future percentage from 15% to 10% in terms of profit.

Mmm...is that a little foolhardy? Like you say they wouldn't do it if they thought he was off. Will we now make less money when he does get sold. Depends of the fee, of course.I see Sporting Lisbon have paid us circa £2,5m as a one off to reduce the future percentage from 15% to 10% in terms of profit.

£2m now is better than £3.5m over the course of 4 years IMO, as I assume sell-ons are paid over the same time period transfer fees are.Mmm...is that a little foolhardy?

Cash is King, I think you mean.Cash is king really i think
It's possible we didn't have a choice. Remember the original wording, 15% that can be reduced to 10% at Sporting's discretion, or similar wording.
I assume Sporting read the thread on the percentage on here and thought 'this is going a fkin nightmare to work out, let's offer 2.5m and call it 10%'It's possible we didn't have a choice. Remember the original wording, 15% that can be reduced to 10% at Sporting's discretion, or similar wording.

Yep, that’s how I read it.I don't think we are getting £2.5M now by the looks of it. Turner's article seems to imply that's what we have earned including payments last season for appearances/goals scored, etc. So might not be as lucrative as it seems. So only €1M payment.

Panic over, the Mensa boys are on the case.If you ever think the chats about what we will receive from the Vik sale make no sense on here, i've just read a discussion about it on the Facebook forum and had a stroke.
Why would they pay 2.5 million for the fun of it if they can reduce it at their discretion?
Nobody would agree that it makes no sense.
Arsenal were reported to have structured a deal of £76M a couple of weeks back?If they owe £2.5m on the add ons, then it’s worth them buying it out if they expect him to go for £50m or more profit. So £70m total.
I read yesterday that Liverpool & Tottenham are also in the race to sign Vik.Arsenal were reported to have structured a deal of £76M a couple of weeks back?
Sshhh!!!I’m wondering (hopefully) if this also explains the demonstratively tight lipped responses to transfer enquiries from the club? Basically, we’re about to spend a shit ton of money on players off the back of Vik’s sale…and we don’t want to tell you that.
Don King?Cash is king really i think
Wouldn’t be shocked if the club had some inside info on any deal involving himI’m wondering (hopefully) if this also explains the demonstratively tight lipped responses to transfer enquiries from the club?

It seems kinda important that they would right?Wouldn’t be shocked if the club had some inside info on any deal involving him
If so, this €1 million plus 10% profit would see an extra €9 million for the pot if it’s the release clause being met. Could do some very useful business with thatIt seems kinda important that they would right?

Hopefully we’re in a position to put deals into motion quickly when Gyo’s transfer is confirmedAround £8.1m if the Arsenal offer wins!!
