Ayatollah Hermione 14617 Posted June 7, 2024 Share Posted June 7, 2024 Seems strange when we’re dying for an upgrade on the right wing and he’s there to at least try in pre season. Wouldn’t put it past Edwards to just make a rumour up based on the Feyernoord connection though tbf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 18928 Posted June 8, 2024 Share Posted June 8, 2024 Is anyone going to pay 40 mill for an untried youth in the era of PSR?… Brennan Johnson cost Spurs 47 mill last summer.. 120 games as a pro, including a premier league campaign for Forest where he appeared in every game… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7587 Posted June 8, 2024 Share Posted June 8, 2024 This is exactly why we bought Kuol and Minteh tbf. If we can make £30-40mil pure profit then that means we have wiggle room to keep Bruno/Isak AND buy an Olise or similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antony went for £82mil at 22 years old. Minteh is only 19! Edited June 8, 2024 by Kid Dynamite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cole Palmer had played 19 league games for City before he went to Chelsea. Endrick, Vinicius Jnr, Rodrygo all plucked from Brazil aged 17-18 for massive fees after barely turning professional. There's a race amongst the big clubs to beat each other to the next superstar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 36617 Posted June 8, 2024 Share Posted June 8, 2024 If he’s that highly rated you’d think the club would be doing everything to convince Almiron to go to Saudi Arabia. Rather than flog this kid to a PL rival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might turn out to be class but it’s someone else’s gamble and we can reinvest the cheddar elsewhere. We’re going to have to sell some players as long as this ffp bollocks is in place. Send him packing along with Miggy and Wilson and we’re looking at a decent war chest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven’t produced a youngster as good as those you mention since Gazza and we’ve done precisely fuck all to help Minteh’s development apart from by him from Odense who will obviously get a cut, lowering the PSR benefit. Maybe Edwards is doing some typical football journo maths ie Slot + Minteh + PSR = transfer . Maybe there’s something in it. It would be fuckin galling selling him to those fuckers mind 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
