AshVilla Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 They have won the europa league since then though I'm sure they got some prize money and extra sponsorship deals from that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 My friend thinks they (Southampton) have bid and are front runners. It would be a pity if he went to them rather than us if Tim wants him as much as we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-Reacho Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 The Anderlecht chairman said during the week that Sevilla's bid was pathetic - it's in the thread a few pages back. They must have upped it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danwichmann Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 They have won the europa league since then though I'm sure they got some prize money and extra sponsorship deals from that I don't think prize money from the Europa league will buy much more than a bad of oranges. Doubtless it won't hurt sponsorships and endorsements but it's not that prestigious to make a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelVilla Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Winning the Europa League gives an automatic Champions League place now doesn't it? So they have some money to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And will be much, much more attractive to DP as a destination. We might as well lock the thread if they're serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 The Anderlecht chairman has called a bid from Sevilla "ridiculous" Might be that we're being priced out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdomlahor Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I don't see the need for this signing at all to be honest. For once, we have a few options for the #10 role. Gil, Grealish, Cole if we're desperate. It's not like we'll be playing with one all the time, either. I'd rather the money was spent on a decent right back to be honest, as boring as that sounds. Maybe a younger striker to bed in while Adebayor bears the burden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j19kjh Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Can't see him going to Sevilla, they're looking at having to offload Negredo in order to pay City £10m this season and then the 2nd £10m next season as part of the loan deal that was agreed, not to mention the debts the club has. I think it's safe to cross them off Praet destination list. Regards Southampton the French press are saying Veretout was/is their main target but it's agreed he's heading to us for a medical and Southampton along with Bournemouth have lost out. OK that may mean Southampton will focus on Praet but if TS can convince Gueye and Veretout (according to the press) to snub the south coast and join the Villa revolution, I'm confident if we're in for this guy he'll be convinced to join us up in Brum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) Would be amazing if we were in for this guy as well. Our squad would be so much better. Delph replaced with Gueye Cleverley with Veretout CNZ with Praet. Awesome. Edited July 28, 2015 by jacketspuds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
