Summer transfer thread

[I Just Blue Myself]

Sunday Mirror says we've offered 25 million plus 5 million in add ons for Sterling.

That's more like.

Because, come xmas, Sterling can buy out his own contract (We would foot the bill)...and also...It winds the bindippers up.

[Slim]

They can't really reject it. All the media I'm getting over here is how he's a greedy cunt who isn't worth the money Victimpool are offering and he should just take it, shut his mouth and count himself a very lucky boy.

Now if they reject £25M for him, they can't really claim he isn't worth more wages...can they?

Is this 'buying out the contract' thing a concrete fact then; as opposed to a 'maybe' ?

Also; why would City, or Sterling's agent leak this ? No advantage to either.

Liverpool are behind this story.

"Buying out the contract " is a bag load of bollox that is thrown around every week of every transfer window.

So, who was the last top player to do this?

[City64]

Official bid of £30 million for Sterling from MCFC according to this mornings Mirror .

Its legaly possible to buy your own contract out with x amount of time left on your contract.

Raheem Sterling could force his way out of Liverpool this summer, costing the club up to £25million while saving potential suitors such as Manchester City and Chelsea the same amount.
Under Premier League regulations the 20-year-old is entitled to 'buy-out' the last year of his current contract which runs out in 2017.

He can buy it out in december according to the webster ruling. However its not as straight forward as it seems as the panel who decide the compensation as he is under 23 may well say he is worth the market value and put a huge price on him.

They would be unlikely to put an inflated market value on it though, I would have thought, so the realistic value may be close to what we are bidding now. Let's face it; he isn't really worth more than that. If anyone pays more, it is purely to encourage Liverpool to sell, & because of the timing/transfer window, not because of what he's done in football.

Of course if Liverpool wait until is allowed to buy out his contract, then surely his value becomes less than it is now anyway, because he is allowed to buy out his contract, thus no longer subject to a potential bidding war inflating his price ?

I wonder if anyone else will actually bid for him ? Arse/Chelsea have no need & no place for him, rags probably think there is no point wasting their time & Real Madrid probably don't want him. PSG maybe ?

[everyonehatesus]

At first I thought this would be pointless, now however I've had a rethink. He could be a good buy as it would bring a different way through teams that sit 10 men behind the ball, hes a tricky little sod that's got a burst of pace. It could gain free kicks or even the odd penalty for us equally get behind them with some of silvers and yayas smart through balls.

[DoomMerchant]

I think he'd be a cracking little cunt for us. Him and Sergio and Silva? Fuck me.

Cheers

Sunday Mirror say the Club have lined up Lars Bender of Leverkusen and Germany if they can't get Pogba. The scum are also said to be interested.

For awhile there Bender was considered the best box to box midfielder out there.
Wouldn't be bad. Kondogbia sounds like hes off to Arsenal and Pogba to Barca.

Rags have been trying to sign him for years.

[blues2win]

Don't quite see how Barca get round the transfer ban with Pogba. Sale and then loan back is still a transfer. He could stay at Juve till January to suit Barca. I don't think this is done and dusted with Barca as suggested although it will be tough to get him because he's so much in demand.

[Hazy2]

If Barca sign him, the UEFA should have two cheques for 49 Mill out 1st class to us and PSG.

[South Stand Balti]

Last week Real Madrid took the "unusual step" of denying they had any interest in Pogba. Why bother, considering all the players they will be linked with? They want to make it clear they did not lose out to Barca when he signs for them. It would mean him staying at Juve for another season.

he could always just wait until next summer
