Coventry getting 20m imminently for Gyokeres. Already signed Ellis Simms for fee that could eventually rise to 8m but think Everton get initial 3.5m so wouldn't shock me if we look for a similar fee and wait to see if Coventry fancy signing him once they get that cash in. Swansea wouldn't be a bad move either, think Piroe was linked to Burnley and Luton. He can't be having another season of being loaned out anyway so think him going permanently in next month is pretty certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 I think he offers something different. Good enough? Almost definitely not, but a fit Keinan Davis causes any defender a problem, even if he doesn’t score. He’s a championship striker, but for whatever reason, irrational or not, I just really like him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, i dont see it, i can see him going out on loan again until his contract expires next summer. Kudos to him tho if he does choose to drop wages and go, but i doubt he will, and tbh, i wouldnt blame him, why take a 50-70% pay cut when you can go on loan again on your current wages, then move for free in the summer and maybe get a better deal next year on a free.

We have a real problem with overpaying peripheral squad players. Imagine Hause on similar. Scary to think Dendoncker amongst our highest earners, he wasn't signed as a starter.

david-avfc Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 How much can we realistically demand for a striker who got just 7 goals in the championship last season and has such a terrible injury record? A few mil at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make it sound like no player has ever moved from the premier league to the championship. Davis isn’t good enough at Villa so he needs to move, if wages are an issue we’d presumably be happy to pay him a few hundred thousand to push him out the door. Championship players still earn millions of pounds a year so it’s not like he’s moving from a high end PL contract to minimum wage at Sainsbury’s (despite what some might say is his level). With his injury record if he has a contract offer for 3 or 4 years he’d be stupid to not jump at the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 KD has interest from Premier League and the Championship, his wages whatever they are won't be a problems as he's in the last year of his contract so can spread out across a longer span at his new club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 If he doesn't go permanet this summer then we will lose him on a free next summer, so I think it's pretty much guaranteed that he will leave, we will just have to get what we can for him, only other alternative is if we give him a contract extention. I haven't seen him in any of the training pictures or videos, so don't think he's even back with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Having watched Luton a few times last season he probably would be a canny signing for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would probably want him on a loan! You are right though, we could do a buy one get one half price deal with him and Marv. They agree a 3-year deal with the players, we agree to pay the balance between what wages they will pay them and what they were getting from us, they then give us say £4m- £5m for the two. They get two decent players for the price of one. Got to be worth trying, because as things look at the moment we will be loaning these two out again and getting nothing for them in 12 months. I feel sorry for the 2 players really, they have both performed well on loan, but have yet to get a move as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan95 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 (edited) He's one that I think could still have a good championship/lower prem career if he can finally get over his injury issues. Hopefully we can find a permanent move but with bonuses and a sell on if he does well. Edited July 20, 2023 by villan95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
