I heard from someone we'd agreed the fee but he never agreed to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Baumann at Werder Bremen is notriously difficult to negotiate with and often moves the goal posts at the last minute. He's a big reason for why they've gone down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Silvers Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 In all seriousness, was there ever a credible link, did Villa even consider him, or was this just a click bait thing that got a tad out of hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very interesting and quite the opposite which was based on old lazy quotes from June last year where at first he was sceptical about joining us, which had changed after a few weeks. We then agreed terms with Rashica and it was infact Frank Baumann that moved the goalposts on the transfer fee, Hence why none of the loan moves Baumann pushed for in the September actually materialised either. Besides, you were in my PM' inbox most of the summer asking for updates if you remember, so you know the score mate. Why it's having to be explained again to many is quite hilarious considering we have a thread of 300 pages on the matter detailing it all, but some fans obviously insist keeping their heads in the sand about it still. Just to clarify for the avoidance of doubt, the same source also informed me that Jack Grealish wouldn't be sold and would instead sign a new contract.. and we all seen what happened with that. (This was also mentioned in the first few pages of the original Rashica thread). Let's see what happens this time round. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From certain sources last thing I heard was 'it was up to him' whether he came or not...and he didn't See if we go back in. He's certainly had a tricky season due to injury. Maybe he wasn't particularly motivated to play if they meinschafted him out a move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if they think his substantial injuries will affect him long term. I wouldn't be surprised at all. We were clearly after him last summer and now he'll be 50-75% of the cost. Fills exactly what we need in terms of cover up front and wide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Rashica will be the first player to have a testimonial granted, before he signed for us.......such is the length of time he has been linked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've enjoyed the verbal sparring with you in the Dean Smith thread mate. But this is a different kettle of fish (no pun intended). But much appreciated on this mate.
