The Prophet Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 https://twitter.com/philipphinze24/status/1665762908012257280 Dominik #Szoboszlai publicly flirted with a transfer last week. @NUFC would like to negotiate down the €70m clause. Magpies can spend around €150m on transfers this summer. Potential transfer income included. Financial fair play must be taken into account. @SkySportDE Right on cue.

SUPERTOON Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I’d be surprised if they let him go for less than the release clause. They don’t need the money having already sold Nkunku to Chelsea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I think we’ll have a summer window here that brings Martin Samuel’s recent article to the surface.

The player himself liked our instagram photo after defeating Brighton 4-1. That’s a very promising source if you ask me. Botman liked our Instagram post when he was still a Lille supporter player.

SUPERTOON Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Without bringing up the whole debate again, I think 40 million for Lavia represents better value than spending any sort of money on Mctominay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRaspberryJam Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 When someone says to me, would you rather spend 40m on McTominay or 40m on Lavia my answer is always the same: they're not mutually exclusive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Nottingham Forest can spend €150m, any figure below £200m will be a big mistake and a missed opportunity to establish the club in the top 4 right now, not later.

City have a match any offer and a buyout back for '24 for Lavia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

J7 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 We've already spent over £200m without bringing barely anything in. That said, I agree not to spend this window given what kind of attraction we will be with Champions League football would be a mistake. It's the perfect opportunity to take a leap in terms of quality that might not be there next year if we didn't qualify again, which is still more likely than not I'd say.

I think the club have identified ASM as an asset worth trading if it loosens the purse strings for quality in other positions. ASM is at peak value now and won’t get any better as he relies on his pace! If we can get 30-40mil for him, I reckon our budget will allow us to go big on 3-4 targets! But then you have to replace ASM as well, probably at the same cost, so it doesn’t really create any extra funds If there are other reasons fair enough, but I don’t see the club being willing sellers of anyone who would actually attract a fee as they would just need replacing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Anyone significant missing from this in terms of recent links that seem to have some amount of substance to them? I know some are unlikely or maybe even already ruled out (like Phillips and Veiga), but trying to get a sense of the overall picture. AM/CM Dominik Szoboszlai - £60.3M (release clause) James Maddison - ~£40M Rayan Cherki - £40-45M Arda Guler - £17.3M (release clause) CM Kalvin Phillips - £40-45M Romeo Lavia - ~£40M Scott McTominay - £40M? Gabri Veiga - £35M (release clause) LB Kieran Tierney - ~£30M CB Kim Min-Jae - £51M (release clause) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
