Transfer Rumour Carl Rushworth - Permanent (7 Viewers)

[fatso]

I think some of you need to wise up a bit and work out when you're being wound up.

Still think the music means the ice cream van has sold out?

No ones being "wound up"
You're just being called out as a c**t.

It's brilliant that it looks like we've got him, but in worst case scenario and we
Verbruggen goes to replace neuer...
that move back suddenly looks a lot more appealing for someone trying to get in st George's park.

The only reason Brighton will want Rushworth back is if he does well.

If he does well there will be bigger clubs that Brighton after him

 

[bigfatronssba]

I don't think it works like that. If there is a buy back clause it's likely to be 30% to 50% higher than the original selling price so lets say for an example, £40M.
If another club shows serious interest in signing him for more than that, Brighton would most likely activate the clause, sell him on, and take the profit.
If we get relegated but Rushford has a brilliant season he might want to leave, to stay in the PL, in that case Brighton would have the option to buy back, keep him, or sell him on.
We as the buying club would very likely have insisted that milestones, for example being picked to play for England, will increase the buy-back fee, thus giving us an incentive to develop him and thereby increasing his value, which it turn would benefit Brighton.
Sell on clauses within contracts have to comply with standard employment law so I guess CL would have to agree the contract terms up front.
Another point is the contract must comply with PL rules, so can only be triggered in a transfer window.
Edit: I forgot to add that usually buy backs have a finite term which will be specified in the contract, so possibly that would be the length of his remaining contract?? not sure on that.

If Rushworth has a brilliant season, there will be bigger clubs than Brighton after him

£22.5m + add ons if he plays incredibly well/we stay up. Not really sure on logistics of a buyback - assume it’s worth around £40-50m, his value is unlikely to get any higher than that even if he’s playing for England so not really sure why people are moaning.

3-5 more players likely coming - been a nice start to the summer.

 

[SkyBlueSam01]

The more I reflect on the deal the more comfortable I am with it

The main reason to sign him is for the continuity of having a top quality, reliable, fan favourite keeper who already knows the squad and will bring stability in our first season or two (hopefully) back in the top flight.

If we lose him for a bit of a profit after we have bridged that gap then his job is done, if we get relegated the buy back money will be welcomed, and if he just stays forever then great stuff.

Not sure if it’s been noticed, but one of the posts said it will be the new record signing after Amenda…which means we paid less than £17m up front for Tchaouna.

So, Burnley fans may want to cool their jets over what we paid up front for him.

fabrizio not mentioning a buyback is great

But isn’t he just reporting what Ben Jacobs and John Percy are saying? Percy said Brighton have agreed to a buyback agreement, so perhaps we were the ones who wanted it.

I can't believe some are disappointed at the money we've paid. I don't think I've seen a better keeper play for us in 30+ years I've been going.

I could see that which ever young keeper has the better season becomes England number 1. Tuchel tends to favour the younger player and both Henderson and Pickford will be mid 30s by the time the next world cup rolls round. Gives 4 years for a keeper to settle into that position.

Been going 92/93 and can confidently say he'll go on to be the best keeper to have played for us.

2nd best goalkeeper I've seen in a City shirt by a country mile.
Glazier then Rushworth for me.

Oggy was a fine keeper too and played in the top flight for a long time .

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

His save against Ipswich was the best I’ve ever seen from a CCFC keeper, and he pulled off a number of others like it across the season. That’s going to matter a lot more than his distribution provided we don’t insist too heavily on AAATB type stuff.

Happy Carl Rushworth day to all those who celebrate!

Yeah I was behind that goal that day and it was an absolutely incredible save. Unbelievable reflexes.

Its the best save I've seen from any goalkeeper anywhere tbh. He had no right to get anywhere near it.

Fair fucks Doug, another signing "out of the blue" i didn't see this one coming.

 

[rob9872]

England's England's number 1





If Fabrizio says it's done, that's good enough for me.

Happy Carl Rushworth day folks

Reg Matthews still the best. Sold him to Chelsea in November 1956 for £22,000. He already had five full England caps by then, even though he still played for a third division team. That was the most ever paid for a goalkeeper at the time.

I saw Glazietbplay and indeed went to his testimonial but I was young !! My dad was at Maine arias when he broke his leg and remains convinced that he would have played for England had that not happened. Obviously Oggy is an all time legend but I’m not so sure that at his best Hedman wasn’t better ?

 

[Martw]

Sorry for the typing !! Glazier and Maine Road that should of course say

 

[junglej13]

Nothing about buyback

No mention of a massive fee from this helmet either like when Gyokeres was sold to Sporting.

I note how he mentions a £30m package (basically including all ads ons). Hopefully the £20m package for Loum is structured similarly.

Gordon Banks against Pele the only one better that immediately came to mind

100 pages of arguments,most have probably stopped viewing it, so wanted nobody to miss it. Monumental signing. So happy!

As I don't go on the politics board anymore I completely forgot you existed

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Could be all wrapped up today. Medicals don’t take long and deals been agreed with Rushworth for a while.

Not so much in recent times but we have had some really good goalkeepers over the years.

I’m not going to put them in order, because they played at different times and at different levels, but Glazier, Hedman, Oggy, Kirkland and Rushworth all readily spring to mind. I also think that, provided he recovers fully from his injury and rediscovers his form, Dovin will be very good.

I hope Dovin goes out on loan for the forthcoming season. If we are relegated, Rushworth will be off to a Premier League team (whether that be Brighton or someone else) but all being well Dovin will be a ready-made replacement and we can spend any profit we make on Rushworth in strengthening the team to come straight back up.
