RowlattsFox Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 Value is irrelevant really - freeing up wages is more important. Especially if we are keeping Vestergaard. 1

Well we put him on those wages and paid a lot more! But appreciate the sentiment. Although thought Rangers were linked with a higher fee a few weeks back?

My understanding is that if you sell someone for less than their book value that it’s a negative on PSR calculation - breaking even would be ideal Edited 31 July 2025 by Jazzy_Jeff

Either way, be delighted to get him off the books, even ahead of our other overpaid prima donna centre backs.

Taking wages into account, we’d break even on the year if we sold for £500k, but there is obviously the cost of any replacement to consider. I think if we can push Wrexham up to £2.5m, it’s a no brainer. I’d sell at £2m
Molson Canadian Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 Wrexham make bid for Leicester's Coady Latest from Sky Sports News' Anthony Joseph: Wrexham have made a £2m bid for Leicester centre-back Conor Coady. It’s understood the 32-year-old would be open to exploring a move to the Championship club, if a deal can be agreed. Sky Sports News revealed last month that Rangers had made an approach for the England international. Coady has one year left on his Leicester contract. 1
Noahfence Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 Connor loves the sound of his voice Coady and Wrexham is a match made in heaven
Finn Claw II Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 While I do love a good PSR chat, transfer values do also reflect what a player is worth and reducing the wage bill is a real saving, Would be delighted with £2m and him gone. We massively overpaid for him - both transfer value and wages. 1

Nelson will be an absolutely fine replacement and would prefer him anyway. Just think how reduced our wage bill will be. Edited 31 July 2025 by fox_favourite 3
fox_favourite Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 (edited) I'm happy to accept £2m offer and him off our books. Plays against us then Monga tearing him up. He gets his media attention he so obviously craves and they have a 'big' signing to announce. We get him off our books and one less player in Nelsons way as well. All good from me. They'll be called Leicester City B team soon! Edited 31 July 2025 by fox_favourite

Jimmy Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 if we're not paying any wages to him to make up the difference then take the £2m and start working on getting rid of the plank and sideshow Bob

We would still have Okoli, Nelson, Vestergaard, Faes, Souttar and Aluko which is frankly still too many. 2
