New contract to drive up the fee when the vultures come calling ..... plus he is two years into this one so will be interesting to see how long any extension is

Got to be, surely. Excellent news if that's the case!

Talks over this have been confirmed by Percy and Tanner in the last year so it's only a matter of time before it's done. Great news if true.

Our first ₤100M player.  And yes, get that contract signed and let's bump consideration of a sale out to 2022.

Sorry to be pessimistic but there's not chance he'll go for that fee without being a home grown player. That mark is most likely to be broken by Maddison or Barnes but they too would have to improve a lot until those figures are talked about. They are young and homegrown and attacking players so they are the only ones I could possibly see eventually achieving that.

I think CB is becoming more of a premium position -- at least for the select few who can play the ball and pass as well as defend.  Cags is already elite or close to it in most statistical categories.  In addition to being one of the fastest players in the PL, which is ridiculous given his size and strength (and position).

 

Put it this way, if VVD was on the open market, he’d cost over 100M.  We’ll see where Cags is at in a couple of years as he nears his peak.

Was Coutinho's fee 130 million?  I know it was a different position but he was not home grown.  If Real Madrid or Barcelona wanted him enough, who k ows what they would pay?  Man United would pay a lot if they wanted him enough.

Coutinho is a different level of transfer. I just don't see it to be honest

Coutinho fee was extremely dodgy, tantamount to money laundering.

Excuse the bump but there’s a lot of teams right now that look like they need a CB (Man Utd, Liverpool, Man City, Barcelona?) 

 

really surprised there doesn’t seem to be any speculation as he’s really a class above most Centre-backs in this League bar van dijk and maybe Laporte?

He has already said he doesn't want a move and this may well be reinforced (even if only slightly) by his BFF arriving

No need to move right now. Happy here, regular starter, making a name for himself, new contract on the table (or will be at some point this season), best mate just joined the club. 

[Ric Flair]

New deal surely will be announced within the next few weeks.

[moseeds]

New deal announced, departure during 2021 Summer transfer window unless we end up in the Champions League/win Europa League

Don't get too attached. The vultures(them and us) will come calling eventually......and they must be fed.

Things can change if we continue our current trajectory.

[Hollyfox]

If Cags leaves after us signing his best mate, I'll eat my Fez

I honestly believe that cags will end up at real, juve or barca. CBs peak in late 20s so he has time yet

Ünder would have every right to be pissed if he did.  Not sure that's a factor but you can't rule it out.

I was talking about the future if he improves a lot. The main point I was making is that it will take a home grown attacking player to break the 100million mark in my opinion.
