Would be good if we can get him on a free this window, would probably have to up his wages though. Or give him a pretty big signing on fee.

messi11 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Tier 1 Tom Collomosse says he will be available for £3 million! That's like a Aldi middle isle kind of bargain He always says Emery has followed him since he was in charge of Villarreal.

I really like the podcast but these lads don’t have any inside info do they? They’re just fans who have a podcast? I may be totally wrong. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted January 20, 2023 Author Share Posted January 20, 2023 Should we be at all worried that Lyon want rid so much? Or is it just that his contract status is a problem for them and they want to try and recoup some money now… I’d usually defer to Pissflaps on the matter, but seeing as he’s gone, I have no idea who to ask anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we know they want rid? They priced him out of a move a couple years back. It sounds like he’s refusing to sign a new contract and is happy to go on a free.

CVByrne Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 If Emery is keen on him and we get him for as little as £3m and wages less than Ings was on it's a fantastic piece of business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolta Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 As I remember it we were linked to him before he went to Celtic, back in the dark days. I may be misremembering though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope we’d be paying him less than the £120k / week we were paying Ings. I guess when there’s a minimal fee involved it’s not as big a deal other than it potentially pushing up wages of other players we’re trying to sign.

I mean Lacazette is in amazing form and his displaced him from the starting lineup after Dembele got hurt (11 Goals, 4 assists in 19 games). Dembele has 6 months left on his deal and no reason to re-sign considering this. So it makes sense to just move him on, even if it means on a free if they can strengthen other problem areas of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
