Transfer Rumour Yankuba Minteh

Red flags everywhere regarding this transfer....

You might wonder why a teenage winger supposedly really want to sign for a club with a manager that never really have played with wingers.

Financially you'd expect signing for a Premier League club to be much more lucrative than signing for a French club. For both player and agent. Yes, he is already under contract with a Premier League club, but when a player goes from being a 7 million player to a 30-40 million player in 12 months, there will be expectations that his wages are increased with several hundred percent. And if the player makes 3 or 4x the money, his agent does the same.

And his agent doesn't really represent other players (of value). But I am sure he can secure him self a very good income for the next 4 or 5 years if Minteh signs for Everton. He would not need to represent other players. No need to work. Which maybe explains why player and agent seems to work to get a transfer within England asap.

Also. Feyenoord's manager was Arne Slot. He should know everything worth knowing about Minteh. If Minteh is all that and Newcastle are desperate to sell, why aren't Liverpool getting this done. They love a spreadsheet transfer. They need to start looking for Salah's successor. And they will have a position in their team that suits Minteh.

Pretty much all these players that comes in with high expectations after impressing in the Dutch league fail to make an impact in England. That doesn't mean Minteh will be poor, but any signing comes with a massive risk. Even for a price at the third of what is quoted a signing seems like a punt.
Interesting points but to some degree the price is academic if it closely relates to what we get for DCL ( the deal doesn't get done otherwise).

If DCLs true worth is say £25 million then we simply have to satisfy ourselves that this player is worth close to that .

The price isn't academic when he is benched because he can't defend, have no resell value and cost the club 10 million a year.

Because that's not how football works.

What a strange post.

If course we have to satisfy ourselves that he's decent and fits Dyches system, that goes without saying ( or should)
