Dahnsouff Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 10m with a 30m-35m buyback would be my guess, seems to be a new strategy by such clubs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excuse me for being ignorant but we've sold £80m worth (excluding addons) and signed, what, £25m worth? If we want this lad we can buy him A lot of the transfer fees coming in will be covering the massive wage bill that we have this year with so many staying on, so we don’t have as much to spend this year as it would seem.

sdb Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 You'd hope our relationship with City, plus our stronger looking squad, could sway this in our direction. Soton have the money but the squad has been significantly weakened, for now. You'd hope shifting 4-5 of our big earners would fund this and a RW.

ARTY_FOX Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 Southampton can put the money up all they want. Doesn't mean he'd go if he'd rather work with maresca. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALC Fox Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 Loan with obligation to buy upon promotion might be acceptable to Man City. I'd have thought the Enzo factor will mean we're first choice for the player, it's just convincing Man City that our offer is the best. Leeds and, to a larger extent, Southampton might be more able to offer a permanent transfer right now which Man City might be more amenable to. If we can quickly line up a deal for Faes, Soumare, Castagne, Daka or Souttar then maybe we can be persuaded to cough up now as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy 5 for the price of 2 or something?.. Car boot sale perhaps? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack1993 Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 Are buy back clauses beneficial to anybody but the selling club & If they were banned would it be bad for football? I feel like they really shouldn't be a thing but I might be missing something that actually makes them beneficial to the game rather than just convenient for Premier League / Richer teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Souttar it appears doesn't really fit this criteria so will be out the door first perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clever Fox Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 Just get Bellis bought even for 10 million. Then just move the others out before the window closes. It seems a no Brainer, He has a lot of upside and we need to get the team settled asap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vestegaard, meanwhile, seems fated to remain here until his contract expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
