AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Don't see any reason to believe he prefers Marseilles, except pessimism. Not that I know more than anyone else obviously. I thought there were reports from France that his preferred choice was Marseilles but they had asked him to be patient and wait until his contract had run down and then they would be able to bring him in at a lower fee and meet his demands. He's stayed at Lyon so that makes me more pessimistic definitely. Totally missed that if it was the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled in Texas Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Probably hadn't worked out the tax issue. Less salary in the UK might still have given him more take home pay than in France. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I would have thought NUFC pay a higher salary to our top players than the French teams (apart from PSG and Monaco) pay their top players. Wasn't Gomis wanting £80K a week mentioned at one point? I wouldn't have thought that was true. I doubt Gomis is on £50K at Lyon. I think Gomis' quotes could be related to the fact that Lyon didn't want to pay the 5% fee they owed Saint-Étienne from a sell on clause as well as all the agent fees. NUFC may well have agreed wages with Gomis but when they were asked to pay the Saint-Étienne sell on clause fee they probably wanted Gomis to take it out of his wages.

Aulas had said last month: "We saw Vincent on August 2 and I asked him to stop his manoeuvres. "But Marseille continued, and it was only after I verified that they didn’t want to invest the sum that was demanded that I asked for an explanation from the league’s Commission for Legal Affairs." Labrune had hit back at the claims by saying: "As I said to Jean-Michel Aulas, I’m not going to shoot myself in the head because players are interested in the sporting challenge at Marseille.

That ties in with the (sane) Kinnear interview where he said the problem with the Gomis deal was that other clubs were in there as well, it's not hard to figure that Marseilles were the main competition.

Hmm... if it is true that he will be 8 million euros less then we may up the wages we offered previously. Although I doubt it. Depends what other teams are offering.

Teasy Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 We could offer him the same wages and top them up with a €3m signing on fee to sign a pre-contract for next summer and still save €7m from what we offered a few weeks ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 http://sportwitness.ning.com/forum/topics/more-murky-claims-on-gomis-to-newcastle The president of Lyon Jean-Michel Aulas has told the French media that Newcastle United’s attempts to bring Bafétimbi Gomis to England broke down because of the player’s agent. There have been reports in France that the transfer never happened due to a disagreement over the salary Newcastle had offered the French international which is something Aulas has denied Le10 Sport have reported on Aulas' claims that the transfer fee and the salary had been agreed with Newcastle. He revealed discussions had progressed well with the Premier League club but all of sudden the deal was pulled by the club because of issues with player’s agent. In the end he said Gomis had to return to the French club and start the season with Lyon. Aulas believes if there wasn’t any interference from the forward’s agent then he would now be a Newcastle United player. He said that any president would have done the same thing if they were in his position and pull out of the deal. "There was no problem with wages and no problem on the transfer fee with Newcastle .There was other problems why Bafé could not leave. It wasn’t a problem with Newcastle but there was a final discussion with the agents and this is why Bafe failed to leave. Obviously he had to return. All club presidents would have done the same thing. I think if there had been no interference by a number of people in this case, Bafé would have gone,” said Aulas on the situation.

Guest Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Aulas version of events take III. (Canal Plus tonight) http://www.20minutes.fr/sport/1223211-20130915-transfert-avorte-gomis-aulas-denonce-role-agents In the latest episode between Pierre Menes & Jean-Michel Aulas regarding Bafetimbi Gomis, the Lyon president has found a new target: the players' agents. The Lyon president, invited to a live debate with the Canal+ columnist, he explained why the striker did not leave for Newcastle during the transfer window. "Gomis' departure to Newcastle did not fall through because of transfer amount or his salary. The 5% payment to St-Etienne, his former club, was also agreed. The only thing which blocked it was the relationship with his agents." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
