Mole_Toonfan Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I suspect the extra 20% due to all the 3rd party bollocks is what the hold up probably is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I wouldn't consider anything "done" until we see it on the official site, like. I sometimes think Charnley negotiating with foreign agents must be a bit like when Tommy and Gorgeous George go to buy the pikey caravan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza ladra Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Really happy to see the investing in CBs. How many seasons was it that we went with Colo Williams at the back? The entire Pardew reign? Pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 We've spent virtually nothing on CBs in the last 15 years, like. I'm not sure how we thought we were gonna get away with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Boumsong, Coloccini, Mbiwa and Mbemba haven't been cheap mind. Particularly the first two compared to transfer fees at the time. Though the fact that's 4 in 15 years backs your point up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 love getting irrationally excited our getting someone who I've never seen play (other than the scouting report in here) and never even heard of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 love getting irrationally excited our getting someone who I've never seen play (other than the scouting report in here) and never even heard of. Exactly, and i'll be fucking fuming when we don't sign him too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leazes_End_Mag Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Sounds like its more or less done! Haven't even agreed a fee for him so lets not get ahead of ourselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Sounds like its more or less done! Haven't even agreed a fee for him so lets not get ahead of ourselves. I meant the agreement on the fee which sounds to be very close. But Yeah maybe a bit early. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone has spent time on this if it's a fake as presumed.

Chicane Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 wtf is that 30m bit about? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BergenMagpie Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 wtf is that 30m bit about? Assume that Sporting wants to prevent him from returning to Benfica, Porto or any other competing club within 5 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 So in theory if we sold him back to Sporting next year for £20m we'd have to give them £10m to take him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmonkey Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 That's an insane clause if true, but if we agree it it means we're very confident that this lad is good, since if he flops in his first season it means hanging on to him/loaning him out for 4 years due to the risk of him ending up back in Portugal.

Leazes_End_Mag Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 We're unwilling to meet their demands apparently but Southampton are so chances are he'll be off there. Bring on the meltdown. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Can we buy him, then sell him to Gateshead or something for 1 buck before resigning him for 100k? Antirivalry clause is no biggie anyway. There's far bigger clubs and leagues around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
