That’s a decent bid Tbf to the club, Elanga isn’t worth much more than that and I’d leave him if they wanted a penny more than that £50m Tbf.
We offered them £50m a year ago. He’s off the back of a good season. Seems like a pointless bid to me.
Allegedly was £25m + Almiron then another £5m or so on add ons. Now it’s a flat fee or something. We won’t dick about. He’s not worth any more than we offered.
I agree. I wonder if it’s a smokescreen. We shouldn’t be signing expensive average players. I don’t think we really want to buy him.
Sounds like they've moved on to alternatives. I think Elangas a good player, but id rather have the one from Dortmund.... I'm not sure about the guy at PSV because its a **** league.
Didn't he go off the boil badly late in the season and therefore fail to show consistency at SPFL level?
We'll go back in with a £52 million bid for Elanga. Failing that, Adeyemi/ Bakayoko. Both around £30 million mark. We've been quoted £70 million for Semenyo so that is not happening. Kudus - West Ham want £75 million. Trafford is all but done. The Italian defender Scalvini - £46 million to activate the release clause. We are in talks with a striker too apparently. Someone to compete with Isak.
Where are you reading there's a release clause for Scalvini? Forest value Elanga at £60m apparently, I suspect they'll want similar money to what Cunha / Mbeumo goes for so, in my mind, we can rule Elanga out and move on to Adeyemi
These stupid bids for players to other clubs for players who are expensive and we are well under there clubs valuation is embarrassing. We wouldn’t accept low ball offers so why would they. We are wasting our time. Unless it’s a smokescreen.
We'll sign someone we (the fans) hadn't expected, that the press knew nothing about and had no coverageat all in the media. We'll all go "Really?" only to see them become a fan favourite within a year. Guaranteed. But in the meantime, we can slate our scouting and transfer business.
