Yankuba Minteh (now playing for Brighton & Hove Albion)


Recommended Posts

Wonder if we're flipping him for a fee already. Given the season he's had I would have thought we'd have taken a look in pre-season before making any decisions on his future, let's see.

I wondered if the rumours about us being in the clarts and needing to raise a bit before the end of Jkune might make us cash in on this lad early - hope its not the case he looks really good

Buying players like Minteh, loaning them out and eventually getting £15m-£25m for them is what we’re going to have to do to grow, and to avoid having to sell key first team players. It’s what City do. We won’t be able to compete until we have an academy pumping out teams full of players that can bring in millions in profit.

Their record signing of all time is €8.3m, surely we aren’t selling him to them. We bought him for £8m, we would want at least double that. 

I'd be really disappointed if we only doubled it, without at least a favourable buy back. Not every £8m punt is going to fly like this.

I completely agree, should be a lot more than double. Was more just to show that I can't see him going there permanently due to the lack of money in the dutch game.

 

I think it would be a big mistake flipping him for a 'small' profit now and that we should take a chance on him personally. Go down the Brighton route instead of the Man City route on this one.

Most definitely. And I think he will. 
 

But I wouldn’t mind an FFP hack that see’s him elsewhere for 1-2 seasons to continue his development. 
 

Best to build some relationships in Serie A. 

Worked out so well the last time with Serie A...

I doubt every player in Serie A is a gambling addict. Are you suggesting it's the league's fault? :)

No not the leagues fault. Then again I don't like Italian football. Match fixing, fan stabbing assholes.

 

Okay, maayybbe there's a slight chance I'm biased. ?
