Transfer Rumour MVE to Wolfsburg (49 Viewers)

[Liquid Gold]

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.

Anybody got news on kkh injury as we deffo need him to be ready by the weekend with mve days numbered

 

[clint van damme]

The same site values Josh Eccles at 7 million

So they sometimes go too low?

 

[Kingokings204]

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

 

[Grendel]

So they sometimes go too low?

True Brad Collins is only 1 million

 

[WebbCCFC]

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.

Djed Spence is one - about £20m I think. He did help a team achieve promotion so that probably upped his fee

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

If it’s true I can’t see how the fee is woeful

We place ridiculous assumed values on our players

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.

 

[stevefloyd]

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.

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!

 

[Woodster]

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.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

All the press is saying is that 'the player' has reached an agreement i.e his agent.. means fuck all until Doug and Frank agree it.

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

 

[CovveeBreak]

Im told its done but the fee is woeful


6.5 million up front, 15% sell on

Terrible business let's be honest

"I don't hear anything anymore...but I do hear intimate details of transfers"

 

[procdoc]

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

 

[Matt smith]

Hang on tho, If @GIMOC was right on the fee does that mean Doyle coming in

In Gimoc we trust

 

[Cally Fedora]

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.

 

[procdoc]

In Gimoc we trust

team flying out at the weekend for portugal

dolan might be joining them. nothing confirmed yet but they hope he will be with them over there

This is who you trust?

 

[Matt smith]

This is who you trust?

It was slightly tongue in cheek

he does get the odd thing right

 

[Alkhen]

He's a replacement.

Exactly, he looks about the best option realistically available. He's young and has had an excellent season at our level already. Plenty of room for him to improve

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Shows how overinflated some fans views are of what players are worth.

I'm quite surprised so many are happy with the fee when in today's market this really is nothing and he's a stand out player in one of the best leagues outside of Europe's big 5. Middlesbrough got £20 million for fecking Latte Lath

How many full backs go for more?

right backs don’t win you titles but strikers do.

 

[Jamesimus]

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?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

right backs don’t win you titles but strikers do.

unless your james tavernier

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

How many full backs go for more?

Not allowing for inflation, over a dozen in the past 10 years

 

[Robinshio]

with binks. Gyok money that is £12-£13m in

bought fees on nearer £6 with grimes

there will be couple more in this week

 

[procdoc]

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

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

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.

I imagine we will have a decent sell on clause as well

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Even so, should be a bit higher.

 

[procdoc]

Even so, should be a bit higher.

I would have thought 8 million would be about right, would be disappointed if it's less

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I would have thought 8 million would be about right, would be disappointed if it's less

I'd take that with a generous sell on

 

[fernandopartridge]

How many championship full backs go for over this?

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.
