Aleksandar Mitrović

[Zero]

I actually wonder how we will play next season.

[Guest covmag]

if Rafa stays he won't be here, we could do with Fulham coming up and they may be tempted to pay £25 million for him 

 

i don't know if its me but i get pissed off at having to then pay for an on loan player    i.e Atsu.  say we have £50 million to spend  i reckon at least half of that will be needed to secure Kennedy AND Dubra  leaving the balance to maybe secure Slimani IF he looks good?

 

it will feel like we have spent nowt 

[Pons Alias]

I reckon he’ll go for 22m

[samptime29]

If Rafa stays, he'll be sold I reckon. £20-£22 million I reckon.

[Figures 1-0 Football]

Can we have a poll?

[buzza]

Get another 7 or 8 goals Mitro and get Fulham automatically promoted, all the better for us when we sell you.

[TRon]

I think on current form if Fulham want to take him on as a Premiership player, he's currently £30million.

 

If he has a good World Cup they simply can't afford him.

 

Let's not forget they wanted £25million for Tom Cairney, a year ago.

I know prices are mental but we will not get £30m for Mitro ffs.

 

Bought him for £13 million and his value has not exactly decreased.

I concur, but we will not get £30m for Mitro. There is literally no chance, I'm sorry.

 

Vehemently disagree given that we got £35 million for Carroll before prices even began to get as ridiculous as today. Assuming he does well at the WC his price would increase even more. The only reason we wouldn't be able to get £30m for him under those circumstances would be the incompetence of our club negotiating with other clubs, which to be fair, is very possible.

 

Carroll was scoring goals in the Premier, and at the time looked unplayable. While I understand player values have rocketed since then, I still think Mitro will need to show some form in the Premier to generate interest at that sort of money.

 

Tom Cairney is rated at £20m+ without a single PL appearance.

 

Strikers are usually more expensive, a striker with a decent PL goal ratio is bound to cost more. Anything less than £25m-£30m would be pathetic.

 

He’s still only 23. Slimani was bought for £30m with nothing but a few goals in a piss poor Portuguese league.

 

No one paid the £25m for Cairney did they? I'm not saying we shouldn't slap a £30m price tag on Mitro, just that I can't see anyone paying it at this point.

 

Why wouldn’t they?

 

See Hans’ post above. He’s increased in value as he’s increased in performance/ability.

 

Name me a young international striker in as good form as Mitro that isn’t worth £30m+. You can continue to dislike him but he continues to score goals and perform well both at club and international level.

 

Even a half decent Championship player goes for £15m+ these days.

 

It's got nothing to do with disliking him, I just don't think a club will pay £30m for him because of what he's doing in the championship. Hans doesn't think so either unless I'm reading that wrong.

Nobody is saying that is the case, it's just that what he is doing in the championships supports what he has already done at international level and in the prem.

 

[HawK]

If reports are to be believed, no-one stumped up 20m for Gayle so I I think anything over 20 is unlikely.

[Guest]

Gayle has nowhere near the reputation on the continent as Mitrovic though. He'll have been someone the top clubs have been looking at from 18-19 if he's improving at the rate he has the last 12 months and scores a few at the World Cup, I don't see why we couldn't get £20m plus.

[Disco]

Very few clubs in Europe have £20m+ to spend on one player. Particularly one like Mitro. Best bet is Fulham coming up.

[Guest]

Could see someone like Wolves being prepared to spare that. Shame he doesn't fit in with Rafa's style man, he's going to be class.

[HawK]

No-one on the continent with 20m to spend would put it on Mitro though, that's the point. An upcoming Championship club will stump up the most imo.

[Heron]

He's probably most likely to join Fulham long term than go anywhere else.

[mrmojorisin75]

Good move for them both if they go up I'd say.

[Heron]

Definitely. Then we'll spunk 50million on Diego Costa and we'll win the league

[Figures 1-0 Football]

Him joining another English club would be fucking torturous. I’d rather flog him for £10m less abroad.

[huss9]

really?

[Hanshithispantz]

Aye I wouldn't accept £7m for him like.

[Figures 1-0 Football]

Obviously that was a sentimental post about how much I love him, rather than a serious football business post.

 

But when Rafa wont get a single penny from the sale anyway, it doesn’t make much difference anyway

[Disco]

I’m at Fulham tonight. Plays absolutely no differently to how he does for us.

[Infinitely Content]

The Discman on scouting duties. Hope you're wearing the badge loud & proud.

[Guest]

He's been the difference between them pottering around 4th-8th and looking capable of finishing second now.

[Disco]

He was a lot better second half but again no different to what he did/didn’t do for us. Fulham fans love him.

He's doing well in the championship, what I'm questioning is how that will make anyone pay £30m for him. His record in the Premier wasn't good, not sure it was any better than Gayle's tbh. International level is decent, but again, in the Premier he's up against defenders who are used to dealing with his physicality. He might well do fine in the Premier next season, just think there's going to remain a question mark until he's done it, so I can't see any team spending £30m. Fulham might give us £15-20m if they get promoted.
