Menace Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) Never mind - got it wrong “Newcastle didn’t want to sell Ivan Toney to us, they wanted him to move on loan,” MacAnthony said. “But we don’t loan strikers so we invited Newcastle to share in Ivan’s future success with a sell-on fee. "They agreed and they wanted 50% of any future transfer profit. That was never going to happen as we were paying a fee for Ivan as well, so we settled on 30%. We paid Newcastle a transfer fee of £350k spread over three years. "We have received £10 million so far from Brentford and we will receive X amount – I’m not allowed to say the number – of any future profit and Newcastle will receive 30% of what we get from us. We earn money every time Ivan moves and so do Newcastle. That’s how these deals are structured and I’m all for it. It’s like a chain reaction and it’s the best thing.

gdm Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 1 minute ago, Menace said: Ah yes a Reddit post. Peterborough's CEO has said endless times we dont have a sell on. it’s hilarious. As if Charnley would have the imagination or foresight to do that deal to get a sell on of a sell on after 2 transfers. Some people live in fantasy land. We are lucky to even have a sell on with Peterborough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We then get 30 percent of what Peterborough get So say it was 100 million (high I know) They get 30 million. We then get 9 million of that. Pure profit here and yet we still sold Minteh smh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 31 minutes ago, KaKa said: Yes, I've always thought £50 million was a fair fee for Mbeumo. Brentford won’t quote that price since they know we have that amount of money to bid for Guehi. 70m is more realistic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcnick Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Some people have delusions of grandeur when it comes to us buying players, there are only probably 3 or 4 teams on the planet that can almost set there own transfer fees buying or selling, everyone else will pay what the selling team sees fit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 If he fancied it at a decent wage, absolutely 100%. If he wants somewhere close to what he's getting at Barca then it's a complete non-starter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Just now, Beren said: All the Chelsea lot are likely to be on megabucks, right? Apparently not, at least anyone signed in the last 18 months (which is around 40 of them). Supposedly they have a stricter wage structure in place.

Geordie_once_removed Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) Of the Barca lot the only one I would really want is Victor Roque. Otherwise I think the wages will be too high and I'd question their motivation as they might perceive joining us as a step down. But Roque is still young and I'd love to see how he'd do under the wing of our boys from Brazil with Howe and Co's coaching.
