I think the issue is that we need a RW now whereas these clubs are presumably looking at Minteh as a prospect for the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that weird. We obviously need to sell before the PSR deadline and while we need a RW, he looks very raw and is untested in a major league. Obviously I'd rather not sell (fuck PSR) but it seems no one is banging down the door for out other sellable assets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 if we get an offer close to £20m for miggy or longstaff this sale may never go through. but thats unlikey to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 (edited) 3 hours ago, Conjo said: He's been brought up at a top flight club in Gambia, moved to a top flight club in Denmark at 18, played a full season in one of the best teams in Holland under the guy who is now manager at one of the biggest clubs in the world and earned his first international start 1.5 years ago. Unless you mean in general for players of his age, what on earth makes you think he has little tactical education with his experience? What on earth makes me think he has little tactical experience? It’s pretty obvious what I meant. Even Arne Slot himself when talking about Minteh a couple of months back said something along the lines of how quickly he has improved his tactical awareness and decision making when in Gambia where he grew up as a footballer they didn’t really focus on any tactics whatsoever so he hasn’t had the same education as other players of his age coming through in Europe where it’s totally different in this department. So he’s had to learn quite a lot in a short period of time but has done it pretty quickly. Edited June 23, 2024 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novocastrian Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 I hope it’s Roma or another foreign club and we have at least some type of first dibs on a buy back option. Baffling decision otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 Terrible sale in isolation. Huge backwards step, but so much going on in the background it's hard to know where this deal sits in the grand plan. Gutted though. Probably the same feeling Chelsea had with Hall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

black_n_white Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 You’d presume selling minteh will mean we can spend up to 60 million in a right forward this summer? I don’t like it one bit but the club must be forced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 The sooner people accept that deals for players like Minteh, Harrison, Kuol etc are just as much about grabbing assets we think we can flip for FFP purposes as they are getting future NUFC players the better. We’ll be doing a lot of this over the next few years, especially with the way we’ve been aggressively hoovering up young talent to pad out the youth teams. Don’t get attached.

If we need to sell Minteh before the June deadline due to PSR, and we won’t have Europe football next season, why would people got their hopes up that we could spend big on someone this summer? We are already in the PSR red zone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted June 23, 2024 Share Posted June 23, 2024 You would hope we have a reasonable buy back/ sell on clause. In that case it’s probably a good solution to tick a few boxes. Young player gets game time in the league, helps PSR and we get either a % of future sale or the option to bring him back. Have to say if I were Minteh I’d be unimpressed with us and generally it’s farcical that we have to act this way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea have essentially created a second business with Livramento having around a 30% or something stupid selling fee and then hoovering up talent to loan out or sell.

We bought him from a Danish club and gave him incredible exposure on loan at Feyenoord. He's going to end up on probably ten times the salary he was on when we picked him up. I doubt he's unimpressed. I'm sure he understands the process. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
