The College Dropout Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I reckon we would sell at £120m-£140m. His book value is down to £40m and would be looking at £80m-£100m book profit. Arsenal doesn't have that FFP bandwidth though. Even £100m doesn't help us with FFP substantially. Bruno is different. His book value is far lower so would mean a bigger FFP profit at £100m compared to Isak at £100m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 (edited) Didn't Rice only have a year or so left on his contract ?. Seem to remember he did so West Ham had no choice but to sell really . We hold all the cards with Isak and I would be astounded and also disappointed if we even entertained an offer for £100 million . It would basically mean we have no intention of trying to close the gap on Arsenal. Edited April 19 by Geogaddi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Shouldn't be asking anything below something crazy like £160m, a massive 'get fucked' price. There isn't many quality strikers out there, he would be the hardest player to replace for us by an absolute mile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 I’m increasingly of the opinion that neither Bruno or Isak are going anywhere in the summer. Their contracts are long enough there’s little risk to their value. I reckon the club will want to give it one last heave and see what we can achieve in a season without a freak injury list before we do any trading.

Keegans Export Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Hasn't Isak got four years left on his contract? I also think the transfer clause in Bruno's contract will make us even more reluctant to let any other big hitters go. What if we sell Isak for £100m, then at the last minute Real Madrid come along and activate Bruno's clause? I wouldn't blame Arsenal (or anyone else) for asking the question but I think for what we'd want they'd look elsewhere for £20-50m less (Toney, Osimhen etc) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 With Isak, unless the player is pushing a transfer, its not going to happen. By all accounts he's happy and settled and although it may be naive of me, I don't think there are enough "pull" factors in Arsenal's favour. It'll either by headline filling or Arsenal trying to unsettle him, or a bit of both. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesnt strike me as the character to force a transfer unless its to a truly elite club, not Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF that's just bad journalism. Talk Sport bosses must have really low standards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the new FFP rules are great for Arsenal when they come in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingxlnc Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 To be fair, their wanting Isak (because of Henry) is like us wanting Paqueta because of Bruno It's not really grounded in reality, it's just what the fans want The reality is the club probably can't afford it. Isak is up there with Osimhen, Mbappe, Haaland as the most expensive strikers in the world. Osimhen may be up for sale this summer - that's it as far as the uber elite go.

Skeletor Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 £150m is the starting negotiation price, but in reality will be higher than that as they will have to "come up" from there in negotiations. Arsenal, you ain't got the money, so fuck off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
