Celtic expect bidding war for Ki as Swansea open talks over £8m midfielder

I think it will be £6million with - maybe - some add ons.

 

I'm not sure the value of any transfer is solely down to football ability for Ki. Do Celtic not get a decent wad of cash from TV rights/shirt sales in South Korea as well? If that's the case then it's likely that any fee would take that revenue into account.

 

very possibly

apparently he is a handsome lad and sells shirts

dont see it myself.....

 

you cant blame the boy for wanting to play for a big club.

he is probably also uncomfortable playing for a racist club as well.

 

fixed!

 

As has been said, anything over £6m is a great sale for us. Does mean losing out on some merchandising money, but I'm sure if it was really worth that much in the 1st place, we would be signing half the korean/japanese national team's players up every year.

As for big Dave Ki himself, I would have thought moving abroad would be better for him than down south. He always seemed to lack the strength and pace for up here, but has all the technical ability to be a success elsewhere.

 

Fee agreed with Swansea. Supposed to be slightly more than £5m. Deal to be completed within 24 hours.

All this according to the bloke from STV.

 

Sounds like he wants to go, can hardly force him to hang around. Decent profit and give us more room for giving the youths games.

 

BBC saying around £6m for the player.

Rangers - £5.5m.

 

If it's £6m (as predicted by me earlier in this thread) then that is a fantastic bit of business.


Now go out and buy any two from 3 of the following: John Daly, MacKay-Steven, Johnny Russell.

 

Agree Dev

Russell and Daly for me

 

dont buy russell at the price utd want though

lets not forget that they were torn apart buy a russian mob in disarray (why the **** cant i spell that )!

i think splash out 3m on rhodes - and heres a wee chaser - i'd take bocanegra

 

Bocanegra

Could you imagine the beel from the hunwashed

 

id love it

plus i thought he was alright last season....

cheap too

 

Surely we can do better than some SFL3 reject?

 

world record sfl div 3 reject timmy

 

Well it looks as if he's coming to the swans, do you think he'll fit in to our style of play ? We don't really play route one, but that may change depending on who we play.

 

no in all seriousness valley - he is a tidy passer of the ball with a good strike that would suit a prem league team

the game is a bit too physical up here for him

 

What makes you think we play Route 1 and that ki is a route 1 player?

 

No idea mate I have only seen Celtic play once against us last year, it's just a question on whether you think he will fit in, nothing wrong with asking is there ?
