CarryOnVilla 1,446 Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) This appears to be the situation, Werder are needing to raise funds, so they neeeeed to sell Rashica we were in agreement with Werder, but Rashica wasn’t In agreement with Villa, because he wanted to go to RB Leipzig. RB Leipzig was in agreement with Rashica, but not in agreement with Werder. A deal was never met soooooo... RB appears to have moved on, so now Rashica seems to changing his mind about other teams. Villa is still in the running, however we have competition from Napoli and Leeds That seems like the current situation Edited September 10, 2020 by CarryOnVilla Link to post Share on other sites

Especially when Bremen only want £21m. If you think about it £120,000 per page it’s not a bad price for a player of his caliber Link to post Share on other sites

Same tbh. But I kinda hope I'm wrong just so we get some quality that can cover for Grealish in case he is suspended, injured or something. Link to post Share on other sites

I think he's on quite low wages at Bremen and anything we offer will likely be way higher. Seemed to be his main issue until now was hoping for Champions league football and being reluctant to move his young family out of Germany. I don't think money has ever been or will be an issue. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Just putting it out there. He might not be a starter for the very top teams yet (would still be a useful squad player even for Liverpool) but he'd be a star player for most Champions League level teams. I've seen nothing from him to make me question that. He's certainly better than all but one of our players. Link to post Share on other sites
VT Supporter romavillan 5,442 Posted September 10, 2020 VT Supporter Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 One thing foreign players might be weighing up is that whatever they earn in sterling now with respect to the euro will take a big hit if no deal happens. Or at least their agents and financial advisors will be. Could easily top 20% the cut in value from now to Jan. Like if a player is on €20k a week, comes to the prem on £25k a week, €28k more or less now that could easily turn into €20k if the pound crashes and no pay rise anymore...

Okonokos 2,624 Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) It seems Werder are quite badly in need of any money they can find. It would be wrong of Milot not to join us and get them €25m. Edited September 10, 2020 by Okonokos 2 Link to post Share on other sites
