2023/24 Amadou Onana

[TheBigIguana]

Swap for Broja.

Or PSR circumvention him for Broja.

Up yours, PL, etc…

Still asking to add a vomit reaction button.

This would be a disaster just on pure valuations of the players and the upside each has.

 

[TheBigIguana]

I think we'll get about 50m/52m mate, just for potential alone.

For what we paid for him, id say there's only ever been fleeting moments and the odd performance where he's looked like a 30m+ midfielder

This would be us getting fleeced. I’m begging everyone to watch him play for Belgium. There is so much more there when the team plays real football.

Nope. Chelsea pulls our underoos down if that happens.

oops….

I should have known better…no way he was pulling the ball out of Rom’s hands.

Don't get why

Exactly. Don't sell. Keep and build the team around Amadou

I’m not sure we can do this either, and tbh that’s only worthwhile if we’re sacking Dyche tomorrow which I’d say we probably aren’t

Absolutely allergic to Broja

Just mulling over if we sell Onana for £50m, I wonder how successful the club would view his transfer.
His fee was reported to be £33 inc add ons (no telling what they could have been or if they’ve been met)
His wages were a sticking point for WHAM, opening the door to us, these again were reported to be £120k/week.
So assuming worst case he will have cost us
£33m plus £12.5m = £45.5 m or so at point of sale.

Lille are due a nominal 15% or £2.5m on the ‘profit’ of a £50m sale.
Unless he slings in a transfer request he will also be due a loyalty payment when sold I would imagine.

So his over all liability to the club would have been £48m or so, probably a bit lower as I’ve assumed top whack where figures aren’t concrete.

With the club paying that sort of transfer and wages to a 20 year old, I suspect they were gambling on his value going even higher. So while his transfer was great compared to some of our recent activity, it don’t think it can be viewed as wildly successful.
If my calcs are wrong, it’s because I had 8 pints of Estralla and a bottle of cava last night.

Think its 25% on profit, not 15%. Mad to sell at £50mil.

If its that fee it would need to have Amad Diallo on top

This would be us getting fleeced. I’m begging everyone to watch him play for Belgium. There is so much more there when the team plays real football.

A sensible opinion.

Exactly. Don't sell. Keep and build the team around Amadou

I think if we can bring in the likes of Minteh and Gnonto with Onana in the 6 role we'll see a showcase of passing and a different dimension to our play

Just been confirmed on sky that Bayern hold an interest. Wonder if he's the plan B if they can't get paulinho.

 

[LocalNative]

Fantastic player who we’ll never see the best of under Dyche and in this system.

For that reason, any sale involving profit should defo be considered.

 

[Pabbers]

He looks like absolute rolls royce for Belgium, many many clubs will be looking at him, serious player.

 

[lieneverton]

More good performances for Belgium please, Amadou. Do us a solid.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

I sometimes wish this guy worked as hard as his sister does. Absolutely begging a big club to come in for him.

Where has he once come out and said he wants to leave?

I didn’t say he had. I suggested his agent (his sister) is working very hard to keep his name linked with big clubs.
