WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Definitely feels like there's been some sort of suggestion they're open to selling, it's just going to depend on how much they want and whether we're prepared to pay it.

St1pe Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I know prices are mental at the minute but £45m for him as he’s got 2 years left on his contract seems pretty fair. I can’t see them going for it mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddison bid came out of a clear blue sky but now he knows everything about our negotiations and intent re the player. Sorry, not buying it. The NE hacks we’re exposed as being effectively locked out by our new management. Which is a good thing. None of them have a clue, they don’t break stories these days, they cling to Twitter and social media gossip and forums like this and try and outdo each other to be the first to get something out, then they make a few follow up tweets to keep people engaged and 9/10 their shite never materialises as true. I like Hope and know him, he’s a top bloke, but he has zero inside info within the walls of NUFC other than what they all get fed by our press team which is basically a drip feed of basic generic shite like injuries, monitoring, looking at, hoping to sign, squad happy etc. stuff.

HaydnNUFC Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 If they rejected £40m out of hand and their manager is claiming that bid is worth 3 quarters of his left leg there's no chance they take that. Another £10m might tempt them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 So he said we have around 40 million left in the budget but have bid 45 for Maddison 😂 he knows fuck all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkeye Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I honestly think he is worth the 60Mil. One hell of a player and just what we need. If we got him and Cornet along with the players we already signed this window we should be looking like a tasty team. Frankly signing players and being linked to good players still feels quite surreal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I know it’s not as simple as this but i would happily drop 120 million on him and Barnes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would need to be 50m plus add ons that take it up to 60m. We're still 15m shy of their reported asking price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Magpie Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Really think they will want more of the payment up top. I don't get why we are offering deals like this though because I'm sure FFP is only affected by the total transfer value, doesn't matter if it's paid in installments etc. Sure they know what they doing though.

SUPERTOON Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 If it’s true it’s the clearest indication that Maddison wants the move. Also a sign we are willing to offer big big wages Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not funds they are struggling with, but wages. Actually a spread out deal isn't a bad thing for them. They need to thin the squad though.

I just don't get why we are offering such structured deals but I'm also not a financial expert or aware of workings inside the club. Hopefully this is one gets done though. Him and Werner would wrap up a very good window, Cornet on top of this would be the icing on the cake Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I wonder how much "In Excess" of £45m is. Out of all the players to spunk our load on, Maddison is definitely a great choice, get Werner or Broja on loan and we're laughing for the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) A 5million increase is perfectly reasonable btw. Not sure why people are pissing and complaining about it. Edited August 1, 2022 by r0cafella Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
