duo Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Really? Can't see many PL clubs being interested in him - yes when he plays his record is unreal but 'when he plays' which isn't very often. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gives the impression of someone who really backs himself. I suspect that despite his age, the missed games/limited availability, this hasn’t changed.

KaKa Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Wilson has been monitored by Saudi clubs since the end of last year. There's recently been talk of offers of £20 million for him from clubs over there. They will also pay him really well. I think that's where he'll end up. https://saudiworldfootball.com/2024/05/06/benzemas-al-ittihad-line-up-20m-to-sign-newcastle-star/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us to be able to get £20m would probably need an offer of something similar from a club outside of Saudi to justify it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum Wilson is a more impactful player, with a higher reputation than St. Maximin man. No idea why you think we'd get less for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vexred Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 I think £20M passes fair value. He’s been in the England squad in recent years, has good mins per goal etc. More worried about Almiron failing fair value if we sold him to Saudi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Give us 15m, sounds fair to me. 18m for Miggy. Plenty of FFP wriggle room back off that. Perhaps even a 5m for Krafth/Targett too... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 20m for Wilson is mental like. 11 starts in all comps this season. 33 soon. Guess the Saudi league might get two years out of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess the Saudi league might get two years out of him. Folks on here are going to be absolutely sick this summer. There's a lot of talk that Man Utd are going to get £50 million from Saudi for Casemiro this summer. And don't forget they paid Liverpool £40 million for Fabinho last summer. Just for context.

Doctor Zaius Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 (edited) Fabinho and Casemiro have have both won leagues and CL's. Both with a way bigger reputation than Wilson. Which is essentially what matters most - their footballing abilities come second. The fee they paid for ASM, you could easily see another club paying. Nobody else is paying £20m for Wilson. They might pay it like, maybe having a recent England international is a coup worth the 20m. I don't actually think they will though and if they do, it's still mental.

Doctor Zaius Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Wonder if he'd fancy it. Having been at Bournemouth and then signed under Ashley, he's probably not made all that much money for an England international. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got two seasons left in him, so maybe 40 games at a push considering he misses half a season through injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
