2021/22 Jean-Philippe Gbamin

[Kev50]

Been taking lessons from his coach.

a number of our specialist coaches are famous for getting bladdered regularly, which one are we talking about in this context?

The only reason they would do this is if they managed to insure him for more than they pay. In that case it's just free money.

This sounds like a cunning plan that we should be orchestrating and going halves on the profit with the buying club. ?

Operation gbamin out, longstaff in commence.

Operation gbamin out, longstaff in commence.

As much as I don't want Longstaff, he would at least be available for selection most weeks.

 

[Tree13]

Agreed and he is still barley making it - i wonder does the manager just not fancy him.

Could be a grain of truth to that.

 

[Tree13]

It's a stretch but if I were handling transfers for the club I'd be on the phone to Lille and trying to put together a deal where we buy Renato Sanches for £25m in January, and send Gbamin the other way for £18m at the same time.

We'd make a small profit against Gbamin's book value, as would Lille with Sanches. Our outlay would only be £7m. Both players would get a fresh start.

Lille indicate Sanches available in January 2022

No one would pay 18 million for Gbamim.

 

[Tree13]

No one would pay 18 million for Gbamim.

Not normally, I agree.

But no-one will pay £25m for Sanches in January 2022 either, because he's OOC in summer 2023. Both clubs would be inflating the transfer fees for the purpose of recording "profits" against book value. It's mutually beneficial from an accounting perspective.

Plenty of clubs are. No idea if Lille is one of them though.

 

[carolinablue232]

Why do people think anyone would pay money for him? He’s not played in 2 years and has been injured the whole time.

Nobody would pay a penny for Gbamin.

 

[MACCA75]

Won’t play another minute in the Prem IMO.

 

[Stephen Gibson]

Won’t play another minute in the Prem IMO.

I reckon he gets minutes at the end of a couple of matches before the busy xmas fixtures.

 

[Leylo]
