Bilal El Khannouss (Stuttgart loan, official)

Spuds bid for Eze today, £55mil plus 5 in add ons. He's going to one of either them or Arsenal, so looking like goodbye BEK.

Eze said goodbye in front of the Palace fans on Sunday at Chelsea, he is going. We must demand top money for BEK after the fee they're going to get, either they pay or move on to other targets. If we sell him on the cheap I'm done

If you only got £55m for Eze, you'd not spend over half of that on Bilal IMO.

Pinch of salt, obviously, because nobody *really* knows, but according to capology: 8 of the highest 10 earners currently in Championship squads (possibly 7, depending on Coady's new wage at Wrexham) play for us. The top 3 of those - Winks, Soumare, Pereira - have weekly wages double those of the players in places 12-18. Think a lot of people really, really underestimate the financial mess the club is in. Still.

 

That’s not unexpected given we’ve been a PL club for most of the last decade m, and these big contracts were signed when we were pushing for regular European spots.

why i think Palace might walk away, as the club will be looking for at least the £30mil(+) release clause(that expired)

Agree

they'll surely not go north of 25m and I think we may accept that (with a sell on clause )

It's not unexpected to offer those salaries if you're pushing for Europe. It is unexpected to offer it to shite, though, so we can't shift them on. Also to offer these salaries way after challenging for Europe is realistic, is the case for several of them. The latter two are the problems and are not what serious football clubs - without financial problems - do.

Those thinking the club won’t sell for less than £30m might be in for a shock. We’re in fire sale territory. The clubs in freefall.

tbf he did call about BEK coming to use in the first place, the rest has been really hit and miss

[An Away Move]

He’ll go for around £25m I expect. 

[Stuntman_Mike]

I'm actually at the point of not caring if he goes at all. It's only Abdul that would genuinely leave me gutted now.

Maybe he has a relationship with BEK’s agent ??

[OntarioFox]

I'll be shocked if we get more than £20 million for him, not because he's not worth more than that, but because we don't have a pot to piss in right now and teams know it.

I'm exactly the same usually i have some element of optimism that we are going to try and improve the team but this summer has been the worst in a long time.

That’s assuming

a) thise bids were actually made

b) that may have been pre RC expiry when we’d have simply said ‘RC is £30m’ 

 

I know a lot of you think that means we can ask for more but I’m afraid it doesn’t look like anyone thinks he’s worth that 

[funkyrobot]

If I was a Palace fan I’d not be too happy with Bilal replacing Eze. They are worlds apart at the moment Elk needs a season in The Championship

[mozartfox]

Get Rudkin gone.  He is as much use to this Club as a chocolate fire guard.  He got us into this mess and will not get out of it.  Change change change is required.
