Transfer Rumour Yankuba Minteh

[jazzy]

If it's a straight choice between Minteh and DCL then I'd retain DCL every time.

But it isn't is it if DCL won't re-sign

 

[Mikey O]

And then lose him for free in a year?

I take your point if DCL insists upon leaving, however, I'd hope he'd stay with the right financial offer

If it's a straight choice between Minteh and DCL then I'd retain DCL every time.

I would 100% agree if he wasn’t in the last 12 months of his contract with no intention of signing.

But it does change things with it being so

Ive never heard of it It's like saying we will do the deal after the deadline, but pretend it was done before the deadline

It sounds a bit like the transfer deal sheet on transfer deadline day allowing you to complete a deal.after the window SLAMS shut

 

[Mikey O]

But it isn't is it if DCL won't re-sign

Again, I'd hope with the right financial offer he'd re-sign

Well he hasn't been tempted so far mate .

If you could guarantee he'd stay, I might agree, but otherwise it's a gamble the club can't afford to take

Everton are not in a position where we can allow one of our few really valuable assets to leave for nothing, so the relative merits of either player have to come second to that financial reality

 

[Raino85]

Yeah, clubs that have a track record of doing well with these types of younger players.

Such as?

‘Near miss’ deadline would likely only be taken into account for first time cases/charges. We are well past that point now, and probably wise not to push it.

Seen a post on twitter, fee agreed for £40million and paid in instalments. Trying to find the post but the newsfeed has refreshed. Could be bubbles though…

It's already been posted in the Transfer thread mate. The source isn't the most watertight however.

I wish that i could guarantee he'd stay.

I would hope that between the player and the club that it's clear whether he can be persuaded. If he can't be persuaded, then I'd agree we'd need to move him on. I hope we're not involved in some sort of brinkmanship.

What you want me to make lists? well Trossard and Mitoma from Brighton seeing you highlighted them previously.

I don't follow your logic.

A near-miss would be about a lack of experience of the PSR framework - it would be because a significant boost to the accounts would be possible with a few days' grace that ought to be universally given.

They haven't sold Mitoma!

They made £9m on Trossard, hardly Del Boy levels of dealing.
