As we seen with Chelsea and the Enzo deal they’re tough negotiators and would probably want it all upfront to trigger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 My worry with Silva is letting his agent anywhere near our club. Picking a player with great character is very important but not far behind is the agent also. Not keen on Mendes though I know there are possibly worse.

Ginola Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Harwood-Bellis would be ideal if Lascelles did go. Quality CB that can play out from the back and wouldn't need to be starting immediately.

gbandit Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Targett at Fulham makes sense but more so as first choice rather than back up. No word of Robinson being off? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burn, Hall, Richie and Dummett can all do a job there. Not specialised but if it allowed the flex to do the Williams / Silva dream ticket along with Lascelles, Hendrick and Hayden bringing cash into the coffers or wages saved, then all for it.

Wouldn’t want to see either Ritchie or Dummy playing especially not at left back. loaning Targett doesn’t make any sense for us on the face of it.

Doesn’t loan to buy with certain criteria allow you to book a profit for FFP? Makes sense financially if not positionally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall them saying that the Lewis Hall deal would help Chelsea out as they’d be able to do that, but maybe misconstrued. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toonfanman Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Makes complete sense to remove a third choice specialised left back on 100k/week. It would massively benefit us on FFP if we could get someone to pay the majority of his wages this season, getting him league games/exposure and sell next season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, given he’s only been here 1 year a transfer now might end up putting us in a worst position FFP wise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only signed a 4 year deal, so we’d have to only recoup half his fee next season to be even. Then we’d still have his wages as FFP savings.

Also from a squad strength (in depth) perspective selling him now makes little sense, whilst Hall has not yet even made his debut. I’d revisit the situation in January.

Displayname Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Either sell ouright or keep. Selling could hurt us a little with ffp this year, but not a significant amount. He is still useful for the squad, so no point loaning him out at his prime age. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Said it before but I'd be shocked if Targett is still here come September. Without him we have; Burn, Hall, Livramento and Trippier (and Dummett if we are feeling suicidal) who can all play left back. You don't always get a choice on the best time to cash in on a player. If we get a good offer now, he's gone. I wouldn't let him leave on loan unless it's an obligation to buy. If we get 12m+ I think we sell and it may free us up for one more. ?

Hanshithispantz Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 (edited) Aye us turning down a loan would suggest he'll be sold imo like. It's a shame how it turned out for him after the injury, but he's far too good to be a reserve fullback.
