sempuki Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 SSN saying Sunderland's valuation of DeFoe is £15m... it is going happen isn't it?!?! (Though WH also made £10m bid for Hogan from Brentford). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 West Ham pay 15 million for him, in his first game he tears his hamstring and is out for 6 months , Sunderland buy Efan Ekoku for 15 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 They value Defoe at £15m but would sell Pickford for £8m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shintonsghost Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 They value Defoe at £15m but would sell Pickford for £8m. I disagree that its too much for his age.. 2 decent seasons will bring at least 30 goals...absolute bargain in my eyes.total no brainer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karjala Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Cant see him staying now, just a matter of how much they can squeeze out of West Ham - £8m max? They simply wont be able to replace him with anyone as good, who is guaranteed to score goals, willing to come, and for less than they receive for Defoe. Excellent.

xLiaaamx Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 They're in a corner tbh. He's not even guaranteeing them survival despite being one of the best in the league. Either he leaves, or eventually age catches up with him. Either way it just seems to be a matter of when, not if, it finally implodes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Why wouldn't he want to leave: Going back to club he started out at (surely has some feelings for them), returning to his home, getting out of a certain relegation battle, getting another signing on fee, taking a loyalty fee from Sunderland, getting another contract for at least 2 years on a high salary. No real reason for him to be loyal here, at 34 it's the last chance for him to make another big move. I read on the beeb one Sunderland fan saying they would be better without him because outside of the goals he scores he contributes nothing else. Not sure if that's true or not since I don't watch them very much. Is he really effecting them in a negative way despite the goals ? The problem they will have if they do take the money (they won't get more that 15million because of his age) is how do you replace him ? !5 million (if they are allowed to reinvest it all) does not get you a player with Defoe's goal record (unless they are Defoe's age). However this whole thing works out they are screwed. He's going to be agitating for a move now as time is not on his side, that'll effect his form and the team's. If he gets the move then there's little guarantee that Moyes with his record so far will invest that money wisely in a replacement. If he doesn't get the move it's just going to further aggravate the situation and they will be playing the final few months with their most important player being very unhappy. This is also distracting them from other recruitment activities that may be going on as it could have a huge impact. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
