Matt Posted 2 August 2017 Share Posted 2 August 2017 I'm hearing the pen ran out of ink half way through signing the contract, the club are frantically searching for another one but so far have been unsuccessful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone must have looked at this thread/s on Iheanacho over the past month and put 'more iron in the fire' to wind some on here up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arriba Los Zorros Posted 2 August 2017 Share Posted 2 August 2017 Signing Ian Nacho is all very well, but a waste of time if we don't have anyone to create chances on the floor for him. Got to hope Riyad stays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If rudders fell in a bucket of tits he would fail to get a nipple !!! the guy is the worst negotiatior in football ! another club would have moved in and allowed the clause to be in there, and we'd have missed out on him..

Rossiman Posted 2 August 2017 Share Posted 2 August 2017 7 hours ago, buzzer_b said: Yeh this signing is a great coup for the club no doubt but he's not got the same profile of a man who's won major trophies throughout Europe and one of the best midfielders in the game at his peak. It's an age thing. Kelechi is just 20 and relatively new to the game. What profile did Cambiasso have at 20? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchandro Posted 2 August 2017 Share Posted 2 August 2017 £50m buy back clause is reasonable, if we get him for the minimum of 2 years. £37.5m sounds a bit shit if he ends up scoring 20 goals a season. Goalscoring strikers are like gold dust. Swansea won't let their free kick taker go for £45m FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City1884 Posted 2 August 2017 Share Posted 2 August 2017 For at least the past week the buy back clause was the only major issue holding up the transfer. The image rights issue has been resolved up to a point where the transfer can go through. Man City wanted a straight £35m buy back clause, we wanted £50m because we felt if Man City did decide they wanted him back, it would only be because he had performed outstandingly for us. We also wanted a time restriction on the buy back so that it could only happen within the first x number of weeks in a summer transfer window, so that if we do lose him back to Man City in the future it won't be in a January window, or too late in the summer to be able to replace him. Trouble is Man City played hard ball, knowing we wanted him before the start of the season, so negotiations stalled for a while. So the buy back clause is closer to what they wanted, but I am led to believe it can only be actioned during certain time frames in summer windows.

I'd have thought the summer transfer window had to be a given Imagine if it was like when we won the title and Iheanacho was one of our star players and Man City and ourselves are first and second and 7pts clear of third and they decided to activate the buy back solely to mess us up.

Leeds Fox Posted 2 August 2017 Share Posted 2 August 2017 6 hours ago, dedlock said: How is a buy back clause any different,ultimately,to a percentage sell on clause,other than limiting the team to which there is a sale? I'm not going to do an arithmetical illustration but the point is would we be any worse off with,say, a 33 % sell on? Because they might actually want him rather than just a small percentage of any profit we make selling him to another club. It's completely different.
