villa89 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Hopefully we can move him on the Summer. It's clear it hasn't worked out for him here and either his attitude or his bizarre contract situation means that he can't actually play for us.

Chicken Field Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Yea, I do think the Facebook page was legit, he wrote a lot of ITK stuff, like when he was returning from injury and blabla, posting pictures that would be difficult to obtain and so on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Should do his career a favour and get out of this shit show as soon as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwj Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 Should do his career a favour and get out of this shit show as soon as possible. I'm sure that's his plan, probably why he's not being played 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I take it there's a financial reason for him not playing. As in we pay Barca X amount once he starts/plays so many games or he has a clause in his contract that says he needs to be on the team sheet so many times and paid so much of a bonus for playing.... can anyone confirm? Can't see any reason why he wouldn't even feature, waste of money if we aren't even giving him a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Think there was a piece a while back which said his wages would double or triple if he played a certain amount of games. I think this is the reason why he isn't playing and it's also the reason why he will be out the door this summer, quite simply it's not financially viable.

If true, then its further evidence of the appalling policy that was in place last summer. Why spend so much in fees & wages, on a player that you cannot afford to play? Makes no sense to me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played in 10 matches this season - no contract in the world would have a 'double your wages' clause after that amount of games. 30-40 matches possibly, but not 10. I honestly think with his injuries this season, the powers that be don't want him fielded in case he gets a serious injury and therefore cannot cash in on him this summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Adama Traore is on course to become Aston Villa’s highest earner of around £75,000 a week after signing a heavily incentivised contract. Traore, a £7 million summer signing from Barcelona, will see his pay almost double from the basic £40,000 a week he earns when he makes a set number of appearances this season. The winger, 19, was one of Villa’s marquee signings under the former manager Tim Sherwood in August, despite only four appearances for Barcelona’s first team. Alhough Traore has struggled to secure a regular place his salary will rocket to the top of the pay scale if he triggers a pre-agreed clause in the contract. Sources claim that it could even be passed after just 10 appearances. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/aston-villa/11959012/Adama-Traore-on-course-to-become-Aston-Villas-highest-wage-earner-on-around-75k-a-week.html Probably just a coincidence... but I wouldn't put it past this club.

But I then also saw an article which showed his salary was nowhere near that! It was more indicative to it being RAISED to the rumor 40k per week. Anyway, who knows!

ferguson1 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 If he has a crazy contract then so be it, but why then have him on the bench? Could have just had someone else from the U21 group. Just baffling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Yeah, the financial explanation doesn't make sense. If we can't play him no matter what because it would cost a fortune, we just wouldn't put him on the bench. I also don't believe anyone would put a clause in a contract stipulating an enormous payrise after ten games. Even this club isn't that stupid. To agree to that, you guarantee you're signing a player - for nearly £10m - that you can only play nine times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
