AKCJ Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 Such a clever signing. Well in City and well in Rudders. Pereira - Evans - Maguire - Chilwell is a top defence at this level. 4

As long as Chilwell can improve, otherwise he will be a weak link. Fuchs is more than capable to add some healthy competition though. Very happy with that back four and hopefully last season was a huge learning curve for Chilwell
jonny_wright Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 "It is understood the fee, contained in a relegation clause in former Manchester United defender Evans' contract, is payable in two instalments of £1.75m." wow what a bargain... could be the signing of the summer!

Ziyech or Jahanbakhsh. Or both, ideally. Plus Thorgan Hazard, but that interest has cooled down and the player fancies a transfer to a Spanish side. Edited 6 June 2018 by MC Prussian

jonny_wright Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 Wes Morgans long goodbye has officially started, will he even be here come mid August? will he join Dawson at CB in the forest OAP dream team.

I imagine he will stay and see out his contract due to how much he is being paid. He is still likely to get some game time, although personally I'd prefer we sign another CB, perhaps younger with big potential, and have them as our 3rd choice and then try Amartey as 4th choice. Only way I can see him going, is if we agree to pay big part of his wages, especially if he were to join a championship club. 1
StanSP Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 So the release clause is £3m but we're gonna pay two instalments of £1.75m? Why not just pay what the release clause is i.e. £3m? 1
Fox in the North Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 This is a good start to the transfer window. The club have thankfully recognised some of our weaknesses and have acted upon it. Fingers crossed that we keep strengthening before we lose Mahrez!
StanSP Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 32 minutes ago, st albans fox said: Let’s be clear - activating the release clause isnt the trick here, it’s convincing the player to come and paying him enough I don't envisage us having any problems convincing him to come. Wages won't be a problem. It's convincing the agent to drop his fee...
mozartfox Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 Good back-up for Wes for when he decides he does not want to play in a certain game. 2

Why not just pay what the release clause is i.e. £3m? the longer we hold onto money in the bank it is gaining interest therefore over 2 seasons the interest would probably pay for the 2nd instalment. im not saying that is the case but would make sense from a business point of view why teams pay in instalments. 1
jonny_wright Posted 6 June 2018 Posted 6 June 2018 Fully expect Morgan to be starting in the opening game of the season!

Why not just pay what the release clause is i.e. £3m? I read it as - That is how the release clause is structured i.e when written months ago. Not how we necessarily want to do it.
