Ryan Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 85k a week, yikes! Looks like he'll be spending a year in the Championship if he's demanding that from a new club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Can't be true man. He's apparently frustrated by QPR for pricing him out of a move. He wouldn't then price himself out of a move. We simply wouldn't be interested if those were his demands. He'd be getting twice Mitrovic's wage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin has responded on twitter today, too... http://twitter.com/chazaustin9/status/625339654775177216/photo/1 Metro reporting a £15m deal 'could' be sorted this week - the chronic reporting this too. But then again, I 'could' win the lottery too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 A lot of rags circulating rumours today that Austin would prefer NUFC move ahead of any of the other options (West Ham, Leicester etc). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Must admit, I was all for Austin until we signed Mitrogol. That money must go elsewhere before we think about getting another striker. I'm surprised Ashley sanctions this move, considering he's an injury concern and will never return the £15m back in sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 If we sell Cisse, I'd take Austin in a heartbeat with the money from Cisse sale. I'd rather spend £15m on a new winger or CB. Can see Austin being sold on transfer deadline day as someone (ie, Liverpool) gets desperate and offers daft money for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 People keep talking about £15m in this thread, but clearly we aren't willing to pay that for him anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 People are talking about that price because that is the price they have put on him, doesn't matter if we are willing to pay it or not, people are mentioning it because that is what they want.

mrmojorisin75 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 People keep talking about £15m in this thread, but clearly we aren't willing to pay that for him anyway. Only way it goes near that is with add ons surely, maybe some nonsense about CL qualification etc. 10-12m cash bid is my guess and they'll try and peddle Cisse for as close to the same as possible.

The College Dropout Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Must admit, I was all for Austin until we signed Mitrogol. That money must go elsewhere before we think about getting another striker. I'm surprised Ashley sanctions this move, considering he's an injury concern and will never return the £15m back in sales. If he scores 15 a season for 2 years more, or close to that he'll be worth more imo. There's always an Aston Villa or Sunderland that will pay big money for guaranteed goals in the division.

Well I'm reading things like "£15m would be better spent elswhere" or "He's a injury risk and we may never recoup £15m" as reasons why we shouldn't go after him. Just pointing out that we aren't even willing to pay £15m anyway so its pointless to look at it with regards to that fee. QPR can put that price on him if they want but we all know we won't pay it anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 It won't be too far short of £15m though. £13m-ish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 It won't be too far short of £15m though. £13m-ish. This. QPR have already turned down £12m from Leicester so there's only £3m wriggle room at most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Probably, might panic them into £12m? I mean I would rather spend £12m elsewhere I suppose, but I'd still be happy to get him. EDIT: They've apparently turned down £12m, but that was with loads of time left to sell hoping for a bigger offer. What if a bigger offer never comes?, they may change their minds.

But it does seem that we are his preferred club of choice, and we are probably using that to keep the fee as low as possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
