We weren’t going to go two seasons without selling someone and with Haji injured and no one biting on Sheaf where else was money going to come from?

Wrong summer to sell Sheaf too. Ideally he would have gone last year but he’s tanked his value by being injured or shit for 12 months.

So is this the money to sign Doyle?
Binks plus MVE

Well yes exactly. Only one i can see who went for anything near £15m, who didn't have premier league experience is Matt Cash.

Thats why I said that 8 figures was extremely unlikely, and £6m or so was much more believable.
Click to expand...
Djed Spence is one - about £20m I think. He did help a team achieve promotion so that probably upped his fee

We place ridiculous assumed values on our players
Click to expand...

It's definitely not woeful.

But £3.5m reportedly on the initial fee, SC Heerenveen sell on will be at least 10%, possibly more, and his wages throughout his time here means there's not really a great deal of profit upon initial purchase.

Then again, if we're receiving all of the fee up front then it allows for immediate access to funds for squad reinvestment or to cover operational expenses.

And this is the model, and sometimes we'll get it wrong.
Though I'm confident KKH will be a good signing but we'll see.
Click to expand...
The little I have seen of KKH he has pace and he actually looks to try and beat the opposition full back and whip a cross in and obviously he took his goal well. I always thought Milan wasn't actually great at defending but his pace usually made him look better than he was but he seemed a great character and popular with the other players so if he does go good luck to him but it seems a little strange if we only make a small profit on him!

I would’ve put the mark at closer to £8m, but this is probably a classic case of someone (or thing) only being worth what someone’s prepared to pay.

If you’re looking at the modern game, a return of 4 goals and 9 assists in 100 games for a right-back isn’t headline grabbing.

I’ll miss the fella but KKH is a tidy player and if it creates opportunity to invest elsewhere then so be it.

Yes that does seem a bit odd, surely the Club's agree the fee first.

that's not how it works anymore. The club will negotiate the contract terms with the players representatives. Then it is down to the clubs to agree a fee

6.5 M plus possible add ins is bang on. It’s a healthy profit. Unfortunately, being popular and engaging with the crowd at the end doesn’t add any value. Defensively he was just above average. KKH is a better player.

If it is this rumoured 6.5 million, I anticipate it’s being accepted because it’s instantly about to be spent on new incomings?

different position though. Full backs don't go for as much as strikers, it's as simple as that

Oh I agree, but this is the age of absurd transfer fees irrespective of position, particularly when English clubs are involved. I'm just quite surprised it isn't a bit higher.

KKH has played a similar number of Championship games and attracts the 'english premium' and was £3.5m. In that context £6m+ looks good, albeit MVE had played in the dutch top flight as well.

All we've had is hearsay so far. Even those who have mentioned or have been told an amount might not have been given the right information. But yes expected at least 8m myself

The flip side with KKH's fee is that Villa probably compromised on it to get the money in time for FFP purposes.

I guess we’re probably compromising on this fee somewhat, to get the players in the positions Frank wants before the season starts.

Hopefully it's a few mill higher than the number being banded around.
