Transfer discussion thread

[Cruyff14]

I must admit I never could imagine a Leeds-Brighton shitfight ever being a thing on bigfooty but here we are. 2020 is a strange year.

Hopefully both are relegated

Hes only got a 10 yeat window to set himself up for life. Its understandable.

In regards to Rogic.

Rumoured to be the #2 with Paolo sold and Austin #3 to add two HG players to the squad.

Have been short HG for a couple of years and Poch held onto KWP, Skipp, Parrott, Amos, Marsh etc to make up HG numbers. Jose has culled the youth not good enough, loaned those who need football and looks to now be adding experience and HG players

Gareth Bale and Real Madrid now have an option to end their ongoing saga. #thfc are willing to sign the winger due to José Mourinho's insistence on the transfer. People high at Spurs are also keen to make the return happen. | @elbernabeucom

He Is 27... Quite depressing. An Australian club should be taking him

This happened last time. Bale didn't want to take a hit on wages, maybe this time he will to facilitate a transfer. Levy wont be wanting to break Spurs' wage structure.

madrid could pay out the lost wages. i imagine they just want his presence gone.

If he is let go on a free Spurs could get him by paying a signing on fee to compensate for the reduced wages.

Why should bale agree to reduce his wages?

Spurs and RM can pay 50/50

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Just get him a membership to Wentworth Golf Club and job done

Only because it is technically coming out of Levy's back pocket. It's not a really normal situation when your chairman is also your DOF but also owns 25% of the football club.

Maybe because he wants to spend the next couple of years actually playing football? It is possible for a footballer to take a hit on wages. Especially during covid pandemic.

lol. would probably work.

dont mind the idea of it though. probably enables us to sell Lucas and Lamela too

Son Kane Bale
Brozovic? PEH GLC
Davies Skriniar? Alder New RB?
Lloris

He's in the best 11 they just choose to not play him. What's he sposed to do?

Why would he give away 20 million dollars.

They can loan or pay him out, If they want rid of him.

With that line of thinking he'll be stuck collecting wages & playing golf in Spain. Not like he cant get a 200k/ week contract out of Spurs, they could also pay him a signing on fee if RM let him go on a free transfer. He is not going to get his RM wages at Spurs either way.

Ramsdale to Sheffield United is now official

Why isn Tottenham and RM paying half his wage each not feasible?

He played the same amount as vazquez & rodrygo this season - plus plays for Wales.

He is apparently on 350k after tax, 150million contract...

That and golf in Spain sounds quite nice - being "stuck" like that for two more years sounds doesn't too terrible.

On the other hand that Spurs 11 with Jose looks quite solid

Only two years left on his contract. 200k/ week plus signing on bonus makes sense. Real letting him go for free would be them doing their part.

It still can be a good idea for his bank account when he is 33, the money aint going anywhere. Time & time again Aussies chasing money in either the ME or China have seen their career suffer. So many Aussies would give anything to have Rogic's talent, dont waste prime years chasing money. This is a huge problem for the Socceroos also.

There’s no guarantee the money will still be there for him when he’s 33. I doubt there’s must interest in an average player from Celtic who’s 33. 33 year olds that get money are usually bigger names. A player in his prime on the other hand.

It sucks for the Socceroos but the realistically they’re only ever a chance for the Asian cup. Hardly a goal worth being selfless for.

The A league is probably worse than the league he’s going to.

 

[Restricted Free Agent]

i would take Thiago Silvva on a free for a season if we cant get Rice this window.

The experience would be massive for the development of players like Ampadu and Tomori

It's coming straight from the Brighton Athletic scribe Andy Naylor in conjuction with Phil Hay who is Leeds #1 journo.

Do you think Leeds fans are just inventing the fact that White is rejecting your contract offers to piss off Brighton fans?

How do you know Leeds have actually bid on him then? Maybe Brighton fans are just jumping to conclusions on that to?


You can't have it both ways, you act like Brighton are super sleuths when it comes to transfer fee's and contract discussions, yet carry on here when there's a rumored Leeds bid.

Hay has said this is the 3rd and final bid, if it's rejected we will be moving on to Robin Koch, which I wouldn't mind in all honesty.

Hay also mentioned on his podcast that no other club has been close to a formal bid at the rumoured price, so it seems it's either Leeds or he's staying with Brighton.


Both of these guys are respected journo's, they don't post rumours given they are always the first port of call from their respective clubs, they don't sh*t on that relationship:

Andy Naylor is considered a joke by a large section of Albion fans. When he was working at the Argus he'd never break any big news and half his info seemed to come from North Stand Chat.

The club fed him very little over the years in terms of leaked information. So no Albion fans rate him and thus see everything Phil Hay has been spruiking as rubbish if he's relying on Naylor to feed him info.

Leeds fans however have been taking everything he says as legit.

Two year loan. Latest from Dortmund seems to be they are happy to sell.

Coaching bagging him too

At no point have Dortmund seemed happy to sell. They’ve extended his contract and given a firm indication that if they were to sell, it’s for a certain price and by a certain time. Not sure what shit you’re reading

Whats inaccurate about that?

You can't be serious.

I want transfer rumours not a pissing contest.
