Please W Ham get this over one the line and then bid for Vestagaard.

Forget it.  Burnley have 3 centre halves at the club and one of them is injured.  We aren't selling Tarkowski unless it's for silly money, and £22m net after Brentford get 27.5% does not qualify as silly money.

How much did you pay for Tarkowski?

Hardly relevant.  We paid buttons for Mahrez but we wouldn't sell him for less than the absolute maximum we could extract.

 

27.5% is a huge sell on fee.  A lesson there for selling clubs.  You have to make the sell on fee reasonable otherwise you'll never get it.  It makes sense for Burnley to just keep him for the remainder of his contract.

Very relevant as the sell on fee is based on the profit, not the full fee.

Perhaps it was a genuine question? Who are you to decide what’s relevant to another individual?

would be taking a step back if he went to West ham team and club in turmoil 

Cant see him going there, it's not exactly a step up in terms of league position and or chance of winning silverware. Only reason he might go is if he was getting a huge pay rise. Depends on whether hes motivated by money or by career prospects. At 27 years old, his next move could make or break his career

Burnley first quoted the Hammers £50m for Tarkowski, having rejected a bid of £40m from Leicester last summer, but it is understood that an offer of around £30m with add-ons would be enough to get a deal moving

 

 

 

didnt realize we bid that much for him..

Don't think it was quite that much. It was less than what we paid for tielemans I think.

£30m seems to be the going rate for both, but which is better value:

 

Tarkowski

Pros

 - proven prem league experience

 - coming into his prime

Cons

 - probably won’t see much resale value

 

Fofana

Pros

 - plenty of time to develop so resale value could be high

 - looks like he will add pace to the back line and is aggressive (similar to Cags)

 

Cons

 - unproven in the prem

 - unsure if he is able to step in right away
