CrispinLA in Texas Posted 15 January Posted 15 January Looks like strikers are hard to come buy, everyone's looking at getting one.....even Everton are thinking of getting Cannon back 😳
DerbyshireFox Posted 15 January Posted 15 January If we can sell Cannon for £10m rising to £13m and by some miracle someone comes in with £15m for Faes, that would really give us a great chance to bring in reinforcements in this window. Whether we do or not is up for debate, but it would certainly be a boost PSR wise and free us up in the market 1
sharpylcfc Posted 15 January Posted 15 January Just heard and I don't where this has come from but apparently we're getting between 12 and 15 million for Cannon.

Bryn Posted 15 January Posted 15 January It’s a shame we’ve not given him a proper crack and I think we might regret letting him go if we go down. But if we’re not going to give him a fair chance best for all parties if he’s let go. 1

Surely it can only do one or the other?

DezFox Posted 15 January Posted 15 January If we can get this sort of money for cannon it just shows how beneficial it is to buy young players for relatively cheap with potential. He hasn’t exactly set the world of fire yet we make a profit. I cannot stress how much better this approach is for a club like ours than buying your, vesty’s, Ayew’s, BDR’s, Bertrand’s, Coady’s, skip’s. The list goes on of players that have ultimately hit their ceiling, on the decline, on massivr wages and little to no sell on value at all, not to mention the hunger and desire to deliver and prove themselves. I understand you can’t do this all time and there has to be a mixture but when we already have experienced players in the squad it should be our direction. for a club like ours, I believe it really is the only to remain sustainable and competitive. 1

You can see it now can't you, we'll be back in the Championship with no Vardy and only Daka as our main striker and Cannon will be scoring in the PL with his new club. 1
coolhandfox Posted 15 January Posted 15 January (edited) If we turn a profit it good business. He is limited. Outside of Fatuwa, Hermansen, and El Khannouss, the club should be open to offers for any of the first teams that turns a profit. Edited 15 January by coolhandfox

Because any profit we get all goes into this financial year, but anything we spend can be split across the entire length of the contract of whoever we sign. Hence Chelsea dishing out 8 year contracts. 1

Simonb Posted 15 January Posted 15 January (edited) 8 minutes ago, JimJams said: Dunno. Is he automatically on pens? Exactly this. People keep saying about how he's scoring goals.. but a massive portion of them are pens at Stoke aren't they. I think the lad will turn half decent in a few years, but we don't have the time to wait. Take a profit, buy someone for now and develop an academy lad instead Edited 15 January by Simonb
Verumex Posted 15 January Posted 15 January (edited) Let's breakdown what this profit would actually be... Assuming that it's the £10m+£3m extras figure that's being floated. The extras we likely won't see this year. let's assume that Everton have a sell on percentage, because why wouldn't they? We'll say 25% because it makes it easier. So that's £4m profit this window, with £1m going to the Scousers. That only leaves us with a £3m profit. What even is the point of selli- Oh FFS this is how we're buying Woyo isn't it...?

les-tah Posted 15 January Posted 15 January (edited) Wow could be making £7 million profit and times that by a 5 year contract and we got roughly £35 Million to spend in January already Edited 15 January by les-tah

Don't know what the deal is with Everton (woooooo) but normally a sell-on clause is only on the profit made over and above the purchase price. I think.
TheGoldenGod Posted 15 January Posted 15 January We moan we can't sell players on the periphery like other clubs yet moaning we aren't keeping him. I don't get it, happy to take the money if its around what we're hearing is being offered! Not part of our current squad, strike while the iron is hot and if it can help us strengthen now, it's a must! 2
moore_94 Posted 15 January Author Posted 15 January All permanent offers then rather than loan with obligations 2

Agreed and to be fair, if anyone came in with a large bid for Mads, we'd have to consider it. As much as I want to keep him, he's too good for us and could play for most teams in the world, so we need to accept he's likely not going to be here past this season and if selling him now could fund us bringing in 3 or 4 good players to Improve the squad then it would have to be considered. 2
