2023/24 Dele

Suspect we will need to pay spurs if we resign him. If so, expect him to go in the summer, rightly
That would be BK’s most spectacular bit of business if we have to pay another club to sign a completely free agent. Its contractually impossible, but still feels like it would happen.

It’s some ask for someone, regardless of circumstances, to regain their previous high levels after so many years drifting on the outskirts of the game. Would be great for him and us if it happened, but feels a huge stretch.

Think there’s some suggestion that could be the case because of the Barry deal from city, but iirc, we had him on a 2 year loan and a fee was payable if we signed him to a longer contract before the loan was up, ie to prevent him becoming a free agent.
Come the summer Dele will be a free agent and I believe you’re right there’s no way in which a fee would still be liable to spurs as they no longer own his registration.

Gentleman's agreement apparently between Kenwright and Levy.

We'll pay you if we sign him after he becomes a free agent. Promise.

You sure?

Yes lad, swear down, on me life lad.




More fool you, Levy
 
You gotta put him on the top 20 worst signings when you see the return on the £100k p/w he is paid, we`ve paid him c£7.1m since his last appearance!

He last took to the field in an Everton shirt on 13th Aug 22, 71 weeks ago - 71 x 100,000 = c£7.1m

Dele joined in January 2022, we`ve paid him c£9.9m for 13 appearances, £762k per appearance and in another 7 appearances we have to pay Spurs whilst still paying the player £100k p/w.....

It`s an outlay we just can`t afford, unfortunately.
Geeez we get it.

‘ Gentleman’s agreement apparently between Kenwright and Levy, gentleman’s agreement between these two? Something wrong with that statement!
 
It is looking more and more that we will do our best to try loaning him out in January to save some of the wages we have to pay him. Levy not budging one bit as expected...
 

The Dyche magic has worked on Gomes but getting Dele to play well would be
too much for even Harry Potter's leadership group.

He was utter crap before his injury so he would need a massive improvement injection.
No, EFC is saddled with the professional victim/playboy/chancer until June.
Horrible comment.

He was very brave to tell his story and ask for support. He may never play for us again but I trust he will leave as a more content person.
 
You sure he said the nature of the abuse was rape?
No excuses for child abuse in any form, or victim shaming, but not sure categorically stating he was raped as a child helps either.
I was abused physically and it took me till mid 20s to talk about it and also stop me going out for fights when drunk an ending up.in prison. Abuse happens in many forms and people making a joke out of it need shooting it's not funny or a subject that people should make assumptions on so fair play to you for pulling up someone on it
