Apparently ,demanding huge fees for our players being the concern that was raised. this would fit in line with us seemingly finding it ‘difficult’ to move players on.. Which is a double edged sword. We were all for it when it meant selling players we didn't really want or need to sell and getting the likes of £80m for Harry Mcguire but it's also a nightmare when we can't shift the likes of Booby Soumare! 2

You can't make clubs bid, but you can also still be proactive in trying to sell players, which we are useless at. He’s not long come back to full training following his surgery has he - think that would have been a huge issue in trying to negotiate and sort of sale at an earlier point. 1

Doesn't help that Rudkin is obliged to open each sales call with an elongated Shakespearian intro, 'our beloved leader,. khun Top, peace be upon him, in his wise, wonderful and merciful duty,.is prepared to proffer, by his kind benevolence, a footballing player for the godly sum of fifteen elephants and a polo hitting stick.....' - and the poor club secretary hangs up. 6
AyewJoking Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 Very hard to deal with meaning clubs think they can lowball us and we should just accept it??

Funny how we don’t get called hard to deal with by Chelsea, spurs or Newcastle when they were pulling our pants down. Shouldn’t be making a deal for someone like mads easy imo! Be easy for faes sure… but not your valuable assets
DZ-LCFC Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 (edited) hope its more than 20m Edited 31 July 2025 by DZ-LCFC 1

I don’t think we dare risk not selling him now.
cityfanlee23 Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 (edited) £25-30m and sadly we have to cash in, he started the season as one of the best keepers in Europe, his form absolutely collapsed when he came back from injury (In his defence he was playing at such a level the fall was always going to look dramatic), still played a huge role and was one of the few players that can walk away with his head held high. Best of luck to him, he played a huge role in us going up, and now he's repaying our faith potentially in a deal that might help to get us out of a PSR hole. Absolutely massive potential on this lad, he could have been the new Kasper if we had stayed up. Edited 31 July 2025 by cityfanlee23 1

He’s been training on the grass, feel he may not have played any friendlies is everyone knows he’s off and that’s why he isn’t being risked in games?

Jakub is a ready made replacement should he go. Weve got AB, we'd probably promote Bausor if he hasnt been already with being away with the first team. Its not that mad a situation mate. I dont want to lose Mads but probably helps us out financially. 1
em9999 Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 Need him gone we have a perfect replacement and the money can be reinvested in a proper striker .. 1
Jazzy_Jeff Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 Would be good business if we can get £25m+. Hopefully this will kickstart some activity. Get this done, Coady gone and we can then hunt the striker we desperately need 1
fox_favourite Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 (edited) What is good though is that we have a ready made replacement in training and has proven he's good enough and we don't have to spend any money. How many teams can do that in the keeper department? Edited 31 July 2025 by fox_favourite 1
Finnegan Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 (edited) Scratch this, I'm an idiot, I forget we only paid about 5m for him. Edited 31 July 2025 by Finnegan
Scoop Dog Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 I can live with hermansen and coady going but not BEK it's not even worth him going financially. Gutted hermansen is going. This club really do like to take 1 step forward 2 back 1

Knew mads would be off and keepers is actually not a bad position for us it’s more the fact would have money to spend a bit earlier and not rush deals any deals through , not that we would 😂 Didn’t mean it to come across as why would we as I knew it would happen 🙂 1
Gloria Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 Any knowledge of a sell-on fee? Feels as though they'll be one lurking...
em9999 Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 I think jakub is just as good 👍 so no problems with any of this
Scoop Dog Posted 31 July 2025 Posted 31 July 2025 6 minutes ago, MPH said: Agreed.. I can still be disappointed to be losing a top top class keeper. Stol is a top class keeper. ? Hermansen is the easiest for me to accept because we have a very good replacement lined up ‘for free’
