STM Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I know Ryder is saying more of what we want to hear but I'd wager that he's got better contacts at NUFC than Luke Edwards. Ryder is so Anal with his reporting that I'd be surprised if he ever made anything up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) 3 hours ago, The Prophet said: Re-read Ryder's article and they're definetly both guessing. "Talks have taken place between Ekitike's agent and Dan Ashworth over the last few days". Edwards - "Phonecalls are being ignored by the player and his agent". Why would his agent be ignoring phonecalls? I can understand Ekitike, being that he's on holiday, but unless the agent is also on holiday the absolute last thing he would be doing is ignoring phonecalls regarding a ~£30m transfer of one of his clients.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I think if you’re a football agent you should maybe go on holiday when the transfer window closes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I dont think Ryder lies to mislead intentionally but I do think his imaginary friends and contacts dont really call him with info. He's usually not in the office much as they send him home so often to make him put some fucking clothes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I think he might be grasping with the message, but if he's back in Reims, we should get some clarity on this shortly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 2 hours ago, The Prophet said: If reports are correct, his agent being a dick is pretty unforseen. The agent works for Hugo, not the other way round. Surely there comes a point where the player can just say I want this move, make it happen. Let's not lose sight of the fact his agent doesn't make a penny if there's no move and the lad just stays put. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Can't help but think Ekitike is represented by Darren Lamb - phone unplugged, masturbating over the pen with the nude lady on it and telling Ashworth that he should sign Barry from Eastenders to play up front instead because "he's so versatile".

Nine Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) If the reports about stalling over moving here are true it makes you wonder why the dream they sold Bruno and Trips isn’t enough to convince this player or any other that’s at this sort of level, it obviously might be for personal reasons but I would love to know what’s actually being promised.

Trippier said he didn't get sold on anything, wanted a move back to England and preferably the north before we were even in for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe that, at least not fully. That may have been a big part but if he thought there was no hope he'd have found someone else. I think both can be true, they sold him on the project and he wanted to go back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 If we're sorted with Reims and it's literally just a case of the agent trying to get more cash out of us, you'd think a resolution should be pretty achievable. This could happen time and again though throughout the summer, so you wouldn't necessarily bet against our guys making an example of the situation and refusing to bow.

KDT Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Anyone know who else his agent has on their books? It sounds like a case of them having an unknown youngster shot to near stardom and them trying to milk it for everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's this geezer, only seems to post about Ekitike but looks like he might have a smattering of other young players in Ligue 1 under him. So you could be right, he's seeing this as the big pay day. https://www.instagram.com/tv/Cd3tEWkgx5J/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY= Only the one player listed on Transfermarkt so that obviously isn't up to date: https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/overtime-sport-agency/beraterfirma/berater/5287 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 You get the feeling that even if he signs, if he doesn't bin his agent off, we'll have trouble with him going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Aye, he clearly thinks because we’re Dollar United he can play hardball for more cash. I’m glad we’re not being pushed around.
