Sol thewall Bamba Posted 17 April 2023 Share Posted 17 April 2023 He'll have a career on and off the injury table now, we should probably sell for that figure. Plus if/when we go down we're going to get absolutely raided, even for our squad players, so expect to see plenty more links like this one!

Stadt Posted 17 April 2023 Share Posted 17 April 2023 Is he actually that good? He had an excellent 20/21 (?) but he's not been that impressive since, even accounting for his injuries. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filbertway Posted 17 April 2023 Share Posted 17 April 2023 £20 million for a player that can't stay fit would be insane, unfortunately I can't see it happening 1) I imagine an Italian team would not give us anywhere near that amount and it'd end up being about £4 million up front with 16 in impossible add ons. 2) He'd almost certainly fail his physical.

MPH Posted 17 April 2023 Share Posted 17 April 2023 3 hours ago, Beachyboy said: I seen something about the finances before the Leicester v Brighton game in January. The Brighton fan who had a grasp apparently on football finances was asked by the Leicester fan, if Leicester were to be relegated how badly financially would it hit the club. The answer was although it wouldn’t be good, it wouldn't be as catastrophic as some make out. It may explain why Top didn't act sooner to get rid of Rogers sooner when all evidence was that it wasn't going to turn around. idont think Brighton have many players on 100+k a week… so it’s hard to make the comparison… plus we’ve shown ourselves to not be very good at shifting deadwood recently… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimJams Posted 17 April 2023 Share Posted 17 April 2023 Unless it's some sort of new Roma business strat of buying young English talent, making them look good in a lesser league and sell on back to England for big bucks, I can't see them being willing to fork out 20mill.

Jaspa Posted 17 April 2023 Share Posted 17 April 2023 JJ's a great lad aswell - you want to build squads with his character & intelligence a key part of it ... That said if his injuries put him at too much a risk and they're offering that sort of cash we'd be silly to turn it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 17 April 2023 Share Posted 17 April 2023 A knock on to basically freezing our transfer business for a year, and contracts is that even players we'd be better off taking an offer on we're probably not going to be able to due to the sheer numbers that will move on this summer. I don't think we'll be capable of signing 12 players in a summer. We haven't got competent enough heads. It took us 3 weeks into January to buy somebody from the Danish league. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supergray22 Posted 18 April 2023 Share Posted 18 April 2023 I am not convinced by the arguements put forward to sell Justin. For me a sell on fee of £20 m is the sort of figure we would be looking to spend on a replacement with comparable upside and talent. He is young and we know he fits in well at our club. He has had a few unfortunate injuries but nothing that is likely to curtail his potential at this stage. He has been unlucky so far but he is not done. The replacement risk for me overshadows the sale and I would keep our best up and coming talent. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare isn’t it! Do hope that this means he can spend more time on strength and conditioning and come back stronger and fitter. Didn’t feel like we got the proper JJ last time he came back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he would have made the difference, he has never really jumped back to previous levels when recovering from injury. Better for him to come back stronger next season with plenty of time to prepare his body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Giallorossi manager Jose Mourinho is looking for defensive reinforcement for next season and rates Justin highly. According to CalcioMercato, the Serie A giants have met with CAA Stellar, which is the agency that represents the right-back. The company has a clientele that also includes other Roma transfer targets, such as Fiorentina's Sofyan Amrabat and Chelsea's Ruben Loftus-Cheek. During that meeting between the two parties, Justin's name arose as a potential prospect. And Mourinho was very impressed with the England international last season when Leicester and Roma met in the Europa Conference League. The Portuguese tactician watched the 25-year-old in action during the semi-finals, which saw the Special One's players knock the Premier League outfit out. And Roma are keen to make a move, despite the defender's recent injury woes. The Romans are hoping they can agree a cut-price deal with Leicester due to Justin's fitness struggles and club's potential relegation. That is why Roma are planning a €20million (£17.8m) bid for the ex-Luton star. Wouldn't pass the medical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(we do need to bounce back and selling everyone isnt the right thing). lets say JJ is one of those. lets say his salary is currently 90k. lets say he has an automatic reduction of 40% down to 54k. if i'm his agent then i'm creating 'interest' in my client with clubs who are prepared to pay JJ 75k+. so i'd say to the club - look JJ is prepared to stay and help the club get back but only with a salary reduction of 20%. that doesn't necessarily reflect JJ's feelings but his agent should be taking control to ensure his client suffers minimally financially. he wont be the only one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
