Mattoon Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Didn't really want him gone but understand the reason he had to, but that fee is a complete slap in the face. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Selling him in his prime for that price is shocking, but to do it to a Saudi club who are throwing money about for fun is even worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 At least he's not going to a league with any credibility, so we won't have to have a collective cry every time he does a mazy dribble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) There'll surely be some daft add-on clauses in there to get up to €40m. Edited July 28, 2023 by Gallowgate Toon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) There’s a team of leading industry professionals negotiating our transfers and yet people on here know better about what we should be getting for our players. Howay man. This isn’t Charnley getting his pants pulled down cos he’s an overpromoted tea boy. If we got £25m for him that’s cos it was the best deal for all parties. And an indication of his true market value . Edited July 28, 2023 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Al-Hilal signed Malcom for 60 million euros the other day. Same age and long since gave up on playing in a serious league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t believe we couldn’t have got away with a higher fee considering what other players have gone for recently. Fee is well below market value for me.

ponsaelius Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) Other than the free agents (who obviously got huge signing on fees undoubtedly) it's the most undervalued of all the moves to Saudi League this summer in terms of transfer fee IMO.

ponsaelius Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Mahrez went for £30 million to same club. Obviously a better player but he's 33 this season ffs. We've been had. By ourselves somehow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One has nothing to do with the other. Do you think there were other clubs willing to pay more ? Or we should have kept him as an unwanted squad player and not banked the £25 million ? I might think my house is worth £25 million but if no-one is willing to pay it then it isn’t. Thats how market value works.

GeordieDazzler Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Juve it’s just had their season wrecked by inflating transfer fees. I get players like Malcom went for €60m but at the end of the day they are being bought from clubs who aren’t owned by PIF. Regardless of whether it’s his true market value, if their interest is genuine and not just a favour to us, because of who our majority shareholder is there will always be questions of conflict of interests. The club has worked extremely hard to rebuild itself and has achieved great things in a short space of time. They do not want the shine taken off that by an investigation or punishment.
