In an ideal world yes but it doesn't work that way,very few clubs actually hand over the full transfer fee or selling clubs will know that you have money so a £20m player all of a sudden becomes a £40/50m player,like I said yesterday £200m CASH or **** off.
Just playing devils advocate Mick But say it went towards someone like Bellingham - £120m for him *unlikely I know* but for this example it really becomes £60-70m with the 50-60m profit - I could live with that.
True enough but if we believe what the owners say then we're not a selling club and Bruno only 24 means he could be here for 6 years at least!
We should tell any potential buyers to think of an amount they think he is worth Double it Put an extra zero on the end Then tell them to ask themselves this question....... Are you Newcastle United? Yes - you already own him No - you can't afford him
Sorry, I think there may have been some confusion in relation to my post. I wasn’t, I would stress, trying to correct Chippy in his opinion. Heaven forbid. No, my comment was just plain and simply directed at Chippy. Hope that clarifies the position.
Liverpool echo quoting his market value as £34m and that we might want up to £20m more than that… Oh my days… who makes this **** up. amanda should refuse to sell any player to a dirty 6 club like they apparently won’t sell to us. LFC is a step down anyhow…
Barcelona have entered the race to sign Newcastle United's Brazil midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, 24, after failing to land Bernardo Silva from Manchester City. (Sun) Lol, they haven't a pot to piss in and would probably offer £20m a year for 10 years to pay his fee!
"Come to Barcelona, we will double your wages! And if you're lucky we might even actually pay you 10% of your new salary!"
And they probably have a buy back on Moriba so get them to buy him and chuck him in too and we're talking.
Bruno is a Brazilian full international showing us how special he is. I don’t think we will actually sign a better player at the right age with the right attitude. He’s worth 100m minimum. But actually to us and our progress he is priceless. We can build a team around him Botman and hopefully Isak.
They baulked at City’s valuation of Silva which was apparently around £80m…..if they think we’d sell Bruno for less than that they are smoking some serious product. Hilarious.
Yeah they are on that really serious **** that makes you think mustad chinos look good, or give you halucinations about milking cows at St James', or makes you paranoid that a gang of evil traffic cones are going to assault you.
The impression I'm getting is that they are not the only ones who think that ie that scouse paper article. I think and I may be wrong but certain clubs think Newcastle are still run on the Ashley model ie buy young and sell for a profit but our owners are saying that is not the case and Newcastle are buying players for the future with Bruno, Izak, Botman and very promising youth players while blending in the existing squad. Botman will be next for speculation with the same arrogant assumptions.
