Swerbs Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I guarantee you every transfer anywhere will probably have some kind of sell on clause. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 There's a sell on clause brilliant.... http://sportwitness.ning.com/forum/topics/president-confirms-details-of-aston-villa-s-record-breaking-trans I don't understand a sell on clause, or a minimal fee if it benefits us. As for this, it'll probably be a % on any profit we make. So not a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 No worries with a sell-on fee just Hope there isnt a release clause in the contract; and if there is, its ridiculously high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qwpzxjor1 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Sell on clauses are very common now. Especially with the likes of man city and others spending obscene amounts. If City bid 70m for him in 4 years, they'd want a piece of that, of course. It's release clauses I don't want to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Release clauses can be helpful as well though. We probably wouldn't have managed to get £32.5m for Benteke if the clause didn't exist. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mightysasquatch Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I think Collymore made a great point in his interview recenrly. Release clauses are there to deter potential bidders & protect the clubs interest. Liverpool wouldn't of ever gone close to 30m if there wasn't a clause, it's benefitted us massively. They bid 20m with no clause, we reject, Beneke forces a move...we maybe get 25m. The Delph clause on the other hand...let's not go there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for this, it'll probably be a % on any profit we make. So not a big deal. And, again, if the clause was the difference between us signing him or not signing him, then it's a good thing.

Shomin Geki Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Two hugely exciting signings already! And I'm genuinely intrigued to see if Richards can become the monster he's always threatened to be. My own twitch of concern is the disparity between our best and worst players. The quality of an Amavi, Gil or Gueye next to an Agbonlahor, Hutton, Bacuna etc seems quite lopsided. I don't see how certain players will be improved within a stronger team of players, unlike say Westwood or Okore. Another reason I believe we will bring quite a few more in.

Literally got £40.5m rather than say £25m for Benteke without the release clause bargaining chip... Villa have played an absolute blinder with these two and everyone involved deserves credit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Blinder? Agree with Benteke but not Delph. He should never have entered the last year of his contract. If he's called up for England you sign him up long term. We managed to get a decent fee probably due to his relationship with Lerner. I hope Amavi and Gueye have clauses of 30 million as well. You just never know how good they'll be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ooh-Ah Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 This may have been covered earlier but is he naturally right-footed? In the video I watched he repeatedly tackled with his right when technically he should have used his left, he seemed to cut inside quite a bit and his crossing technique with his left looked more than a bit awkward. He looks like a quality player though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
