Finnegan Posted 22 June 2017 Posted 22 June 2017 21 minutes ago, Babylon said: A first refusal clause is something entirely different and as I said I'm sure would go hand in hand with the buyback clause to protect themselves. Without it they would leave themselves open to exactly what Finners suggested. With it we'd have no right to negotiate with anyone but them until the point that they decide to not take the option up. But that's daft, it implies they could just not trigger the clause at all while he's contracted to us and so we'd have to let his contract expire at which point they could sign him for free. They shouldn't be protected from the situation I described because they shouldn't be re-signing a player just to sell him on, why would the rules ever promote that? It's daft and it's exactly why it doesn't really happen. Again, they can't force us to not sell him to someone else and they can't force him to want to go back. They CAN make sure that their bids are accepted if they match either a pre-agreed fee OR a fee that we've accepted from another club. That's their options.
brookfox Posted 22 June 2017 Posted 22 June 2017 Mildly concerned it may signal a change in our recruitment strategy. Previously we seemed to do in depth scouting for 3-7 years per player, this seems more "ooh he's available and good" maybe with less diligence.

RODNEY FERNIO Posted 22 June 2017 Posted 22 June 2017 Hope it does not end up like the Aranguiz saga ... hundreds of posts and it turned out he had no interest at all in coming here

They use it a lot in Spain where the lower teams have little money but for the premier league teams don't need to sell. I'll be very surprised if we buy him with a release clause. Although, it is Rudkin, so anything can happen. Kante had one....as did Vardy So we do them

Why do people think it's easy as calling a team up and going "Oh yeah can we buy this guy please? 20 Mill? Yeah OK I'll wire it over, let us know when you've got it and we'll send the helicopter to come get him". It's not a cash and carry ffs.
NotTheMarketLeader Posted 22 June 2017 Posted 22 June 2017 Does anyone has information on his chance conversion % ? This is often more telling than simply how many goals have been scored. Vards this season in on in the PL was around 32% I think.
Finnegan Posted 22 June 2017 Posted 22 June 2017 Love that everyone's terrified of all these clauses yet wants this rushed. If we're genuinely interested and Man City really want all these options, Vichai and Rudkin will be working with a team of contract lawyers to hash out, line by line, every word in a document that Man City's own team will work through line by line to pick fault with. It'll go back and forth numerous times no doubt before one side settles.

OptaJoeVerified account @OptaJoe Follow More 107 - Kelechi Iheanacho has the best mins per goal ratio (107 mins) of any player to have scored 10+ goals in the Premier League. Impact.

(50%) He had 42 shots in total so he scored with 30.9% of his shots.

I don't think that worked out so much after last summer... Iheanacho would give us something we haven't had for a very long time - Someone who's absolutely deadly in the box given half a chance and that could be all the difference especially in tight games where teams nullify Vardy by sitting back.

Can you find out what Iheanacho's numbers are?

Can you find out what Iheanacho's numbers are? I can't find the stats for Kelechi. I do know that he either scored or assisted every 75 minutes though. If he kept that up for a season (he won't, of course) he'd get 45 goals and assists
foxes21 Posted 22 June 2017 Posted 22 June 2017 He plays number 10 for Nigeria, according to Man City fans

Swarles Barkley Posted 22 June 2017 Posted 22 June 2017 I think everyone is avoiding the all important question here if we buy him with a buy back clause, if Man city buy him back, will we have a buy back clause To buy him back?
