No resale value at 27? o_O That's like, the start of his prime.
You misunderstood

This assumes that he moves on again at 29-30-31 etc, what could he fetch at that age? A bit more than say a Defoe/Crouch so maybe 15m?

Seriously, what 30 year olds go for over 30m? Only the elite do, Sturridge ain't elite.

30-31 year olds still have plenty of resale value..

You didn't say 'over 30m' you said no resale value.

Sorry what I meant by resale value was the chance of a future profit to be made

Liverpool will make a profit now if they sell him, but it's doubtful his next club will

Because he's getting a pay rise anyway and Bayern wont pay so much for a player with 1 yr left of contract
But if you are giving him a pay rise wouldn't that just equate to whatever he pays out himself?

I have no doubts he is joining Bayern but I don't believe at all he'll be paying anything.

I guess but Bayern probably had already agreed a contract with him, however no deal with Dortmund. Say Bayern offers 30 mill. Dortmund want 33 so Hummels pays the 3 mill difference himself.

I suppose if Bayern then give him a larger signing on fee.

Pretty fair deal all round IMO.

One of the West Ham sources who's pretty good on transfers mentioned an English Striker who's a transfer option for us in his weekly column today. ExWhuEmployee if you look on Twitter.

Batshauyi and Lacazette are still are top options, but we also got linked with Icardi from Inter also.
You will only be able to afford one of Batshauyi or Lacazette.

Batshauyi will probably double your record transfer fee.

Is an absolute gun though, jizz worthy playing in front of Payet next season for Hammer fans if it comes off.

They'd be best advised to get it done before Euro's though, especially if he plays over Lukaku.

Yep agreed, think the club would be happy with either, and it's more to be decided by either Marseille or Lyon accepting an offer.

Out of the 2, I'd probably slightly lean towards Batshauyi because he's duel footed.

Batshauyi, Maksimovic and Tore as the 3 in's alongside Nortdveit would be the dream summer transfer window for mine.

DBAH0 who's this unnamed £20-24m player based in the PL that you are supposedly bidding for according to Sullivan?
Sounds like Batshuayi and Lacazette are their first priorities, and if they can't get 1 of them then Benteke is the back up plan.
"We put in a bid today for €30m (£23.7m) for a player and other bids will be going in. We are going to make a £20m or £25m bid for a player in England this week. So whatever happens, we'll bring a top striker in."
