Obafemi Martins joins Wolfsburg for £9m


Recommended Posts

The fee is about right for him. No matter his faults, he's still a 15 goal striker who has pace, can create his own goals, proven in the Premiership and in Serie A, and is only 24. Anything less would be a bit of a pisstake imo.

Will this 9 million help us at all or just go into Ashleys pocket?

 

If it goes into his pocket then his asking price is £91m.

 

Yep, just goes into the club's coffers I'd imagine.

It has to go into the overdraft otherwise the bank will have some serious questions.

I thought players can't move outside the club at the moment ???

 

Who accepted the bid ???

 

Oba.

Just getting in before the Adminstrators slap a legally binding transfer embargo on us.

 

:banghead: :facepalm:

Well you know what I mean. If he pockets the cash from selling one of the club's most valuable assets, the buyers won't offer as much.

Not sure if I'm that excited tbh. If this is a prelude to the club being sold then fine but to me is shows a sign that Ashley's taking the opportunity to make the club sale more attrative, and if he's got a ceiling price for when selling a player does not devalue the club's price, then that does not go well for the rest of the transfer window as we still have no replacements in.

 

The money for the sale will go into the club and not directly into Ashley's pocket, of course but an extra income 9mill over however many years will help balance the books a little so too will the loss of Martins's salary from our wage bill.

 

At this moment in time I'm even more worried than I was before, as if this is true,  and I guess we are still waiting for confirmation, it signals that despite the talk of transfer embargos, every player has his price. This won't be lost on the rest of the squad and their agents, who I'm sure will push on with their efforts to get a move, leaving us with an already paper thin squad even thinner.

 

Don't assume he's selling Martins because the club sale is just around the corner, and that 9million will really help us build the squad again,  he's just looking out for himself as he always has. Need I remind everyone how happy we were with 12 million for Milner only to find the money for that deal not being used in a manner we hoped.

Do you realise that we will have maxed our overdraft once we pay the wage bill this month and unless Ashley puts in money ASAP, we have no cash flow?

 

That is generally when the Administrators come in.
