Think you are right. At his age money will count and he will go to highest bidder.For what it’s worth I don’t think Nisbett will go to Celtic. He’ll likely have more offers from down south after the Euro’s.

Who offered to buy them last year?They went all in on the 10 & it backfired massively. They were willing to sacrifice the transfer fees for Edouard & Ayer etc for the sake of the glorious Terry Munro. Funny how they were taking the piss out of us for going "all in" to stop the 10 lol
This is exactly right. My view is we should be selling players this season as that protects our financial position going forward.In the SPL and other smaller leagues lots of players need to be signed with the intention of selling for a profit because there is so little TV money. Champions league money cannot be relied on because it is quite difficult to qualify.
In the EPL clubs can afford to sign players and lose money on their transfer fee because there is so much TV money.
The Portugese league is similar to the SPL a couple of big clubs and loads of small ones, so there isn't much TV money it. To survive clubs like Benfica and Porto have to develop players and sell them, Benfica seem to be one of the best teams in the world at making profit from players, in the last 10 years they have taken in about £1bn in transfer fees and spent way less than that so have made huge profits.
We need to be shrewd in our transfer policies too, players need to be sold before they get too old and their values decline and we lose money on them, younger players need to be signed who can be developed and sold on for big money. It doesn't make business sense spending millions on older players in their mid to late 20s with a declining transfer value who we are guaranteed to lose money on.
Shocker.Leicester battling Liverpool and Chelsea for Patson Daka transfer
The RB Salzburg striker is seen as the man to eventually fill the boots of Leicester City legend Jamie Vardywww.mirror.co.uk
Apparently Rodgers now after Patson Daka, Edouard will still be a Celtic player until January when he will leave for a token amount.
So you buy Eduoard for 9mil and a few years later he leaves for nothing.Leicester battling Liverpool and Chelsea for Patson Daka transfer

I’m certain this media just makes up rubbish with them. He was never a £30m player but thanks to them they’ve got the deluded believing they have missed out on Celtic‘s kitty being £30m up, then £15m up and reality will be £1m in Jan if they are lucky.So you buy Eduoard for 9mil and a few years letter he leaves for nothing.
Look forward to his fan club coming back to tell us how they actually make a tonne of profit on that because of amortisation and other accountancy tricks.
They know they simply can’t afford to let that happen. Hopefully buying clubs take full advantage of that fact.So you buy Eduoard for 9mil and a few years letter he leaves for nothing.
Nothing would make me laugh harderI’m certain this media just makes up rubbish with them. He was never a £30m player but thanks to them they’ve got the deluded believing they have missed out on Celtic‘s kitty being £30m up, then £15m up and reality will be £1m in Jan if they are lucky.
It'll be a miracle if they make the CL. He's their highest paid player & hasn't kicked a ball in a year. Celtc will be desperate to get him out the door before he walks free in Jan. Summer 'undisclosed fee' seems a cert.Nothing would make me laugh harder
I still expect he will go this summer
I still expect it will be a deal at about 5mil upfront give or take with clauses that "could see it reach" 12mil or so
And I know it will be an undisclosed fee that the Scottish press will report at 18mil +
They would hate him. Would be hilariousHim declaring he is doing a Bobo would just about cap off the greatest season in sporting history.

They use Leicester quite often to whore out their players. He might go there for a freebie but no way are they paying £15m for him. They‘ll be a lot more worthy players suited to them for that sort of price tag.Daka is more suited to them
Pacey and can finish (Vardy)
See Frimpong as a perfect example....Just playing devils advocate here. Why would they lie about getting more money than they actually are. If their fans see money coming in to the club and don't see it being reinvested then it would backfire on the board, no?
ffs spell his name right.
whit school did you go to?
Rodgers
Full stop.You can’t be digging folk up for their spelling whilst you don’t start sentences with a capital
Why would Gerrard want a sulking Frenchmen stinking the place out? would be my questionWe should tap him up.
Hes French. Hes has no allegiance.
ok
but can you imagine
He'll end up signing a pre-contract with someone, at this rate!
Surprise surprise it looks as if their media have got this wrong, once again.
Every season they try to whore out this player, next season with a £0 price tag and they might finally get it right.
Was pretty confident Leicester weren’t paying £15-18 mil on this guy

Leicester in for that big lad Daka from Salzburg

Lovely stuff. Here’s hoping he and the others with a year left do a Bobo Balde.

I know, its funny. All they are doing is setting their deluded compatriots for a fall.Was pretty confident Leicester weren’t paying £15-18 mil on this guy
Hence why they’ve now gone and tied up the guy from abroad
Celtic’s placemen in the media fcuked them here by setting them up for ridiculous values they could never achieve?
Him declaring he is doing a Bobo would just about cap off the greatest season in sporting history.
It’s worked for them with pushing fees up but now that things aren’t going so well and their fans think they’re cash rich. Now their fans are in a huff and want money back for not getting into games etc. They weren’t that cash rich in the first place as I think they floof their accounts but with the covid hit and player value drop it’s hitting them hard at the worst possible time. Karma, I think they call it.Just playing devils advocate here. Why would they lie about getting more money than they actually are. If their fans see money coming in to the club and don't see it being reinvested then it would backfire on the board, no?
The Australian better have good motivational skills.Lovely stuff. Here’s hoping he and the others with a year left do a Bobo Balde.
??Christie to the sheep on a free.
If there is cash involved I don't think celtic will be buying anybodyThink you are right. At his age money will count and he will go to highest bidder.
Full stop.
they paid £2m + wages for duffy which was an expensive loan deal.Brenda trying to do them a favour I bet but he's been told it's not happening.
Theyll be lucky to get £10mill for him with 12 months left.
The keep anything up to £9 million in total themselves, with an additional 50 or 60% of everything above that, so no, there is no benefit to selling for less.To be clear here i don't want them to make more money but would it not be in celtc's interest to sell him for say 6 million?
No profit so the 40% sell on clause doesn't kick in. They would then pocket the full 6 instead of maybe 3 if (massive) they got 15 for him and had to split the 6.
If they received £15m for him they'd trousers over £12m of it, not £3m.To be clear here i don't want them to make more money but would it not be in celtc's interest to sell him for say 6 million?

if they were offered £5m, their choice is accept it and bank £5m or keep edouard, possibly keeping an unhappy player on the books which they'll lose for nothing in a years time.The keep anything up to £9 million in total themselves, with an additional 50 or 60% of everything above that, so no, there is no benefit to selling for less.
