Demitri_C Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Percy is usually spot on with this so i am concerned. Ffs villa pay him what he wants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I wonder what wages he wants? He probably sees the regular starts making 30-40k a week, and wants a similar deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a tricky situation. We can't just give a youth player who has barely proven himself a huge deal. That is how we get stuck with terrible contracts. But then Davis has been pretty decent this season so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuthority Posted November 3, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted November 3, 2017 It's an agent trying to squeeze as much money as possible for his client. He'll sign eventually but that's modern football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 It's typical journalism. Keinan wins first Morning award on Sky his contract is running out... Perfect time to run story. Yes negotiations are ongoing as mentioned that's football. It happens with every player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 His contract expires end of season, we risk losing a hell of a lot more. But like a above poster said I am curious to what he wants. he seriously needs to remember which club took a gamble on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyAnty Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 20k per week he is apparently looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) He still has a way to go......despite his very, very encouraging start. We have had 19 year old centre forwards before, who have pulled up trees.....Keinan will do well to emulate one of them. i would say the club and Keinan know what they are doing.

The Fun Factory Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Sign him up with some various break clauses depending if/when we get promoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted November 3, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) £20k a week... is that a lot for a footballer these days? I suppose he’s young and we’re in the Championship, but I think I would just pay it. Edited November 3, 2017 by alreadyexists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 There are many parallels to consider.....but when you can only think what Gabby is on and Micah and compare contributions to the cause.....there is only one answer. However....its not my money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think those negotiating are looking at his age and that he's only been on the scene in the first team a few months. They will likely pay up the £20k a week, but it will likely be begrudgingly as every other 18/19 year old at the club is on £2k a week. I guess in the end they don't want to get burned as he could easily stop trying once he pens a 4 year deal for 10x the money he's on now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it doesn’t happen but it's a shame we can’t make it performance related. Bruce says he needs to score more goals, so give him a contract with payment linked to scoring more goals. Happens an awful lot in other sectors but not in football I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. He has had a handful of good appearances in the Championship and has not done anywhere near enough to be put on 20k+ a week. These things have to be a two way thing. He was let go by Stevenage not so long ago and now finds himself playing for the biggest club in the second tier and a club well in the mix for promotion back to the top flight. I am sure we are offering him a very decent contract as we are not known as a club that scrimps on wages. He needs to sign it and continue what he is doing and he will then have a great future here and earn an absolute fortune as he is part of taking the club back to where it should be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
