£8m profit for a player that is rarely trusted to start any of our biggest games is a good deal.
why would we ever sell at the first offer
madness
£8m profit for a player that is rarely trusted to start any of our biggest games is a good deal.
Alfredo would be the hardest for us to replace, we are nowhere near as good without him.No, another season from him and let him shine in the champions league.
Big Phil, Big Joe and Alfie(30-40 million) are the players who are easiest to replace IMO at this time that would make us the necessary money from a business perspective. That’s of course if we need the money.
What are the rules regarding transfer windows?
Or keep him and continue to win football matches and get double that if he continues his progress.15m and a 15% sell on clause and it's a deal
I’d accept that.
Any way you look at it, for a club in Scotland that's very good business.
£15m would be ideal.
Last I read Newcastle United were looking at a bid of £8m - with the Dhims valuing him at.....wait for it....£35m ha ha.And if they get 20million plus for someone like Ajer who leaks goals in Europe, we scratch our heads and wonder what we’re doing wrong.
At the level we want to be at we should hold out for modern day funny money. That is no longer 15m.
There's been one player in the history of Scottish football that's commanded a £20m+ fee.And if they get 20million plus for someone like Ajer who leaks goals in Europe, we scratch our heads and wonder what we’re doing wrong.
At the level we want to be at we should hold out for modern day funny money. That is no longer 15m.
Regardless of the fee quoted, accepting the first offer straight away is just stupid.I’d accept that.
I think this is one of the worst takes i've seen on here in a long time.No, another season from him and let him shine in the champions league.

I don’t think we’d get £20M, and I think we’d accept a figure just shy of it.Seems pretty arbitrary
He was benched for the first two old firm games, home and away v benfica, away in Antwerp and home vs slavia.He started the last Old Firm, Slavia, Antwerp, Aberdeen...
Leads the league in assists, open play chances created, averages a goal or assist every other game, is only 22 and getting better.
No chance.
They’re not the origin of the report mate, they’re lifting it from - I presume - a Romanian website.HITC know nothing. They talk utter pish.
I think around £20m is realistic for him. Age, international player, 2 footed, eye for goal, assists, does well in Europe, eye for a pass. I’d prefer to keep him though.I think this is one of the worst takes i've seen on here in a long time.
Whilst Alfie is perhaps the most likely to leave, given teams are always looking for proven goalscorers and value such a player most highly, you would have to say he is probably the hardest player to replace in the entire squad right now.
On a separate point entirely, it appears the FF collective feel every player in the team is worth £20mil plus and we shouldnt sell anyone for less than £20mil. Not quite sure where this has come from.
I've posted this before, but according to best estimates in the press only 2 players have left Scotland for more than £12.5mil:

Yes, we should try and maximise fees received. Winning an SPL title does not suddenly make everyone worth £20mil +.
Players will move on this summer. Some we will not be happy with. Possibly one player in the squad is worth £20mil+. Unless a desperate club makes a mad bid for a Kamara or someone. Or a player is a revelation at the Euros.
No, we dont need to sell everyone or anyone on the cheap.
A £11.25mil bid that breaks our transfer record and about quadruples what we paid for the player cannot realistically be described as "on the cheap". We might value him more than Lazio are reportedly offering (who knows if this story is paper bs anyway). But around the 4th highest ever transfer fee for Scottish football is not to be sniffed at.
Exactly, this is the model. We have to sell players and Hagi isn’t even a first choice. It would be great business£8m profit for a player that is rarely trusted to start any of our biggest games is a good deal.
This makes me laugh. Especially when the same posters who, for example, have been slating Helander for weeks saying 'he's too slow' or that Aribo 'weakens our midfield' or 'Hagi is too wee/too slow' are the ones saying the bidding should start at £20m....
