Frimpong leaving Celtic

[Laudrup97]

I am just waiting for a Record exclusive from him when he is over there saying he couldnt settle in Glasgow as he kept being branded a peado.

 

[Russell]

No doubt an “undisclosed fee” which then shows up in their accounts next year as 2.5mil.

Yeah 2/3 million max anything above it’s a crazy. His defending is brutal & his final ball is worse.

If he goes for 10 million what is Tav worth??? We should contact Ping Pongs agent & cash in this summer for 20 million up front.

Celtic have a long history of over-egging their player sales. Dembele when he went to Lyon was rumoured to be £35m-£40m, but is now quoted at just £18m (still a lot but half what they claimed). Tierney is similar.

I think they had up what the deal could be - so forecast future sell-ons etc - and then add on the players wages for the deal to inflate the figures that get banded about.

Just to back up my own point:

'Fee could be'. So based on future sell-on clause, appearances, international call-ups etc. Reality is they'll be getting less than half that. The fee is also in Euros so £9m take away all the potential add-ons etc.

Who kerz if we loast rah 10, wur sellin oor assetz n wur teems twenty free poynts behind rainjurz coz weer tap ae the transfer fee table bhoys

No the funny thing is we don’t have players queuing up to leave, might be something to do with being 20 points clear or maybe just being a well run club

 

[cambridgeblue]

Confirmed Leverkusen for 10 million GBP.

By who - Leverkusen ?

 

[RichF]

It was my thread earlier that got chopped.

Yes £10m to Leverkusen is the deal.

This now means our top players value much higher you would think.

Crazy money.

 

[Williem2]

Him leaving makes them stronger.

Would rather he stayed, he is beyond useless.

 

[Cyberniv]

As my father would have said "just open the gate for that one"
A bit unnerved that they appear to be strengthening their defence.

 

[rfcforever]

If he’s properly coached and start to learn how to cross the ball he would be a very dangerous player.

I would guess that this is the reason he wants to go somewhere else. He sure as hell is not getting any kind of coaching at the current shamble.

 

[sheddensbear]

If Frimpongs agent believes a club have paid £10m for him, he will want that reflected in his wages.

 

[Netherburntrueblue]

£10m. I Smell Shite......... Decimal point missing...

 

[EndOfDays]

We will find out in their next set of accounts how much they brought in on sales so no point guessing or listening to tims.

Wont be close to £10M or they would be revealing it IMO.

Fee could be 10million Euros.

 

[Leopold]

Confirmed Leverkusen for 10 million GBP.

Source?

 

[giogaddi]

Celtic describing it as a "robust" offer

 

[makingwaves]

I thought this was quite funny until I saw that ridiculous fee quoted!

10 games without a win !!

 

[cooperman]

a good coach would have made ping pong a very good winger

 

[LordCraig]

Crazy money.

and who told you its £10m?

 

[cambridgeblue]

Fee could be 10million Euros.

Which isn't £10m pounds - falling already..

 

[steve1873]

IF it is £10m then Borna must be worth at least £20 if/when we sell him.
Ping pong looks decent going forward and can beat a man but his final ball is pish...just like his defending.

20?

If Frimpong is worth 10 then Borna is worth 60 million.

 

[Coopertrueblue]

€10m is £8.8m.

 

[Leopold]

Fee could be 10million Euros.

So that already knocks £1m off the £10m quoted. Take off City’s 30% and we are looking at around £6m and that’s without taking add ons into consideration.

 

[delboi]

I'm sure whatever fee they get it will be reinvested right into the playing squad by Lord Peter of Lawell

[Rangers Bear]

Oh my days !

 

[skf]

The very fact that they have 1st team regulars who want to leave their club is music to my ears. Speaks volumes as to the state of things at the phiggery!

 

[Hurricane Run]

So could be €10M, which means the fee is probably around the £4-5M mark with add ons, and they still owe City 30%. Not the amazing business they will claim it is.

 

[Gio#56]

Man City have a 30% clause. But I honestly cant understand that value on him if true.

 

[SuperGers07]

Confirmed Leverkusen for 10 million GBP.

https://twitter.com/x/status/1354065966481727488

Euros. Even then that will be the full package of fee, wage, payment structure and then a 30% cut thereafter to City

Could be around 10 million EUROS which is £8,800,000

And city are meant to have a sell on of at least 30% so around £2.6million of that goes to Man City?

Even if that numbers right it will probably include add ons and certainly won’t be payed in a lump sum.

Not quite the great deal it’ll be made out to be

 

[Punpun]

€10m is £8.8m.

30% going to City mind

 

[Mac72]

Even if the fee is reported as 10 million I'd be very surprised if it is that upfront.

It will probably be 4-6 million upfront
1-2 million after 30&50 appearances
1-2 million after his first international cap

That's how deals are structured for guys Frimpong's age these days. Then you take Man City's 30% of it aswell.

 

[Northwest Ranger]

in a fast car

Bravo

 

[Brasstacks]

€10m is £8.8m.

Minus Man City's 30% on anything over £0.3m. Still, represents a £6m profit in just over a year.

 

[Careca]

They're claiming on kds its for £10million to Leverkusen.

Ridiculous if true.

Can only hope we get them in the Europa.

He must have a good agent. Borna must be worth £80m at those rates.

 

[Kilsyth Unionist]

If that's the case with his contract then he goes this month also.

No way will they let it run on and lose value or the risk of a pre-contract.

Cannot see eduward hanging around for another year, he will go in the summer imo.
They sell him just now then their will be another riot.

 

[Cooper11]

He obviously didn't want his young player of the year award...

It’s from December lol, you can find one of us posting happy birthday to Candeias before he left lol

 

[9inaBo]

I very much doubt the 10 million fee quoted.

If it is, it’ll include add ons like Leverkusen winning the World Cup etc!

 

[Cuthbert Dibble and Grub]

£10m? Someone is using the Seville Calculator.

Transfermarket (for what it's worth) has pingpong down as €4m.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Fee could be 10million Euros.

'Could be' suggests a ceiling of 10 million Euros - subject to milestones and add-ons I'd suggest. And City will get 30% of the actual fee, which could be much lower.

 

[bigy]

Neil Lennon on Frimpong leaving - 'I wouldn't say he was unhappy, just ambitious maybe'. That's a big admission that a 20 year old that hasn't stood out too much is too ambitious for Celtic.

[Our Man Flint]

Don’t know if been said earlier, how much did the Stinkies pay for him!

 

[Chris01]

So 10m euros is around £8.9m

take 30% off for Man City And that’s the filth getting £6.2m

And that’s best case scenario will all the money up front.

 

[SuperGers07]

So that already knocks £1m off the £10m quoted. Take off City’s 30% and we are looking at around £6m and that’s without taking add ons into consideration.

Just over £6m aye

 

[GF1]

The exodus has started. I wonder who will be next

 

[DoubleWhopper]

He's quick and direct but thats it. End product usually lacking.

If thats all Leverkusen are after then we should be contacting them to say Brandon Barker is available for £15 million.
