JNortonAVFC Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Dont know how reliable, but apparently interested in Egyptian striker Basem Morsy, along with Stoke and West Brom. He's also in the last six months of his contract, which makes it sound we are being much smarter with our money in this window anyway. http://readastonvilla.com/2017/01/13/aston-villa-looking-egyptian-striker/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit low all in all, or maybe means the Lansbury offer is a bit high in comparison. I imagine all the interested parties have made an informal pact to offer the same and let the player choose his club based on the wage offer.

BOF Posted January 13, 2017 Moderator Share Posted January 13, 2017 I suppose it depends what the legal standpoint is. If they've accepted a £1m bid (and that quote on the previous page doesn't say that btw, but for the purposes of the discussion ...) then are they entitled to reject it afterwards? Or are they now bound by it? If they are bound by it then there's literally no point in us bidding any more than the agreed £1m because it's still the player's decision where to go based on 2 accepted offers and there's nothing Barnsley can do about it. But if they could reject the first bid then it is worth our while bidding more and therefore potentially becoming his only choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK - So why didn't we bid the £1m on Jan 1 ? - he could be our player of the year by now ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that midfield he wouldn't be far off But most of the previous page is probably all speculation anyway. Let's see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
