RoboFox Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 Everyone's for sale for the right price. We have a financial model and I trust the club to replace him with someone of equal or higher quality. Could debt-ridden Barcelona afford a top-rated Premier League centre-back? I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post martyn Posted 8 June 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 8 June 2021 (edited) To be honest, along with Maddison, Soyuncu is the other player likely to command a big fee that i wouldn't be too upset to lose. His form has dropped off quite badly in the 2nd half of the last 2 seasons, and he hasn't been able to consistently maintain the high level he set once he originally broke into the side after Maguire left. I'd be pretty confident we could sign as good a player as him, for half the fee we'd likely sell him for.

Popular Post Walshy5 Posted 8 June 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 8 June 2021 This might be an unpopular opinion but if we could sell him for more than we could buy Tarkowski for then I'd be OK with it. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spudulike Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 I think there are only 6 clubs in world football that are able to afford our star players. Barcelona are not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aus Fox Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 100 million pounds please! If that sort of money came in, we’d have to say yes and let him go to Barca. Brilliant player and I love watching him when he’s on song, but not irreplaceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee7 Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 Like another poster has said i think if he went i wouldn't be too upset as he is replaceable. Out of Evans, Fofana and Soyuncu i see the latter as the weakest link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 Too early to happen IMO, will sign a new contract then go next summer or 2023 for pretty big money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's replaceable, especially if we go back to 4 at the back. If we could get 50m-60m, bring in a CB and RW it would be good business.

moore_94 Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 (edited) 2 years left on his deal so really we need to decide now as to whether we cash in or give him a new deal Barcelona don’t have any money so any deal will probably include a player as well (Trincao) - even the rumours around Laporte from Man City going to Barcelona included Sergi Roberto going the other way If he goes now then we would need to sign 2 centre backs this summer - ideally one would be Tarkowski and then another youngster (Collins?)

lgfualol Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 The injury ruined his season and I dont think he is comfortable in a back 3, but he is still top class and a much needed nasty bastard so I'd be sad to see him go for anything under 60M.

Realist Guy In The Room Posted 8 June 2021 Share Posted 8 June 2021 Wouldn’t be happy to see him go but on the flip side, for the right fee, it wouldn’t cause us too many issues if he did as long as Tarkowski comes in and Justin recovers well.
