He could be the absolute dogs proverbials, but it's a lot to ask someone to lay out when we need other players. CM, LB, RB would do me this summer.

He is good, but isn't he only 19? he could very easily turn out to be one of many Newcastle disaster signings. But I suppose they still have 25m Chris Woods to rely on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could cope with offloading Ollie and SJM and bringing in Darwin for a net expenditure of abut 50m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be happy with Gomz too, I just want a half decent LB that has potential and can provide cover. I want to see Digne play most games next season, yes it is a risk relying on Digne but we are not quite at the 2 quality players for every position yet. We also have Targett if we want to dig our heels in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AEG is a perfect example last summer, as if he would ever going to get those kind of numbers or playing time again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wood has been terrible for Newcastle from what I've seen so wouldn't shock me if they offer him to Bournemouth or even Forest as he'd do well for those teams.

OutByEaster? Posted June 4, 2022 Moderator Share Posted June 4, 2022 16 hours ago, Blue Scouse said: I would say the only club in PL who could possibly want him and afford him is Man U but they cant offer him CL football just yet. The 'afford' bit might be interesting - the wages he'll want will certainly be high, but I'm guessing that the Everton board might accept an offer that's on the cheap side of pretty reasonable. Given your difficulties with FFP and the peculiarities of your ownership situation, there will definitely be a temptation to cash in on an asset or two this summer in order to give Lampard some sort of funding in the transfer market - I wouldn't be too surprised to see Richarlison and Calvert-Lewin shopped around as a book balancing exercise.

ferguson1 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 I wouldn’t be against Richarlison or Jesus joining if we did decide to sell Watkins to the hammers. Either would be good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a real habit of laughing off or disagreeing with comments and suggesting valuations are ridiculous etc but you never answer the question as to what u think the right number is. You did it the other day with the value of player we could sell. You just post a childish comment and then run for cover 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 Nunez has a €125m buy out clause apparently but that's more of an deterrent than the price they are actually asking for him. Bit like Ansu Fati's new contract has a €bn buy out clause. In April it was suggested that the price would be closer to £55m-£65m or so for Nunez who has now hired Jorge Mendes to work with his agent to get a move.
