LFEE Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Selling Ba for 7.5m and getting Abamuyang for 6m would be pretty incredible business, can't see it though. I think it was nearer £4.5m for Ba... Apparently we got the lot and Chelsea paid him the £2.5m. No... We got about £4.5m... Ba got £2.5m... Agents got 500k of the initial deal then insisted on another £2m from Chelsea so deal cost Chelsea £9.5+m is what I understand... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Surely the release clause refers to the fee that the selling club receives? Presumably why it took so long for someone to activate Ba's clause was that there were a load of extras for the buyers to pay to Ba and his agent(s).

Teasy Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 As long as the release clause has been rumoured it was public knowledge we would only receive around half of the fee... The clause fee has never been reported consistently, either £10m or £7.5m depending on the source (it was even reported as £15m at one point..). The only thing that has never changed is the £2.5m to Ba's reps. So it seems we've either received £7.5m or £5m. That Sullivan interview is the only one that's ever mentioned 50% and I really can't make much sense of it. “I’m told he’s got a £7 million get-out at Newcastle and he gets half the money over that. If they get about four million, half will go to him, so if they sell him for £7 million they’ll only net about three because they paid his agent £2 million to get him out of here. Getting £3 million is not bad, but for a player of his quality it’s not fantastic.” (You can say that again, Dirty David!) Am I missing something or does that sound like gibberish to anyone else?

geordie2000 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 quite often clubs are insisting on the buying club paying the loyalty bonus due to the fact the players agents have spent months touting their client around. we have had a few deals that have stalled in the past due to who pays the loyalty bonus.

That only happens when the clubs have to agree a fee, in this case all Chelsea had to do is offer the amount in the clause and there is no requirement for us to agree anything. We could claim that he's broken the clause agreement somehow by touting himself around, but I don't think we did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to make sense to me and is how it's been reported... As for the overall fee it's consistently been reported between £7-7.5m... My guess is we got around £3.5-4.5m out of it...

Teasy Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Doesn't to me, he says Ba gets 50%. Then he says if we sell him for £7m we'll end up making £3m because we had to pay £2m to get him in the first place. I also haven't seen any other sources mentioning 50% going to Ba. Everyone now is talking about £7 or £7.5m but for quite a while it was reported as £10m. You can take a guess at what we've received for him, but it certainly isn't clear.

Everyone now is talking about £7 or £7.5m but for quite a while it was reported as £10m. You can take a guess at what we've received for him, but it certainly isn't clear. Give or take a few thousand quid he basically meant... £7.5m... we get £3.75... Where i guess he didn't explain himself well is its nearer £2m once you take away the original agents fees... Or did he mean that doing the deal via the agents we didn't pay Hoffenheim at the time the £5m they wanted (Stoke) and waited for West Ham to do loan deal then strike the deal once that contract had expired leaving both Hoffenheim & West Ham out the loop... Either way from following the saga the fee 99 of 100 has been reported between £7-7.5m... There was talk it escalated after end of July and that is when there was a little talk of £10m which might be so giving NUFC a couple of million insurance policy if you wish when trying to find a replacement so late in the window... But come January the fee seemed to return back to the original figure... In a nutshell and AP said as much himself NUFC got nowhere near £7.5 from the BA deal and i'm guessing that taking away his original agent fee to get him to sign we've probably made around £2m on the deal... Though if you chuck in his reported wages they probably come out few hundred thousand short which isn't bad considering the goal return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
