Read lots of articles about him recently and all say different things. http://www.football-italia.net/31257/watford-star-vydra-will-return-udinese? http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-n...ar-matej-vydra-set-vicarage-road-stay-192450? http://www.express.co.uk/sport/foot...am-and-Aston-Villa-interested-in-Watford-trio I hope he stays.
Matej Vydra Stays with the family in Udine Stays with the family in Watford Is sold I see him being sold if we do not get promoted but staying in Watford when we climb up into the Premiership. Nathaniel Chalobah We will play against him next season at Stamford Bridge. Troy Deeney Why leave a successful team for Aston Villa who will be in the Championship next season?
we were told through the fans forum that the players aren't leaving..if we go up, he will stay. If we don't, he'll probably go.
We go up, he signs a contract with us. We dont, he stays at Udinese where he fights to become a first team regular.
Another example of lazy journalism from the Express ... Vydra is likely to go if we remain in the championship - thats obvious and even if we go up the Pozzo's have a policy of selling on so if Arsenal or Tottenham offer the right price he'll join them. Theres no saying we won't get another striker of note from their scouting system. What is even more obvious is Chalobah will go back to his parent club namely Chelsea, if Arsenal then offer the right price he might go to them too but I doubt it. Finally again it is obvious that Deeney will be looking at his options at the end of the season when his contract is up although I doubt he'd go to a relegated Villa. This article is so poor, it lacks any investigation, my dog could have written it ... perhaps he did!
Q: Will the loanees go back to their parent clubs? Is Vydra good enough for Udinese yet? A: GN: We have the same owner, but we are still independent clubs. There is no reason for the players to go back. If they are happy to stay, there is no reason for them to go. The only player that we have no chance to sign is Chalobah. AYP this week.
I agree with others, I can see him staying with us if we get promoted, but if we don't I reckon he will stay in Italy and try to break into the first team at Udinese. Chalobah is only 18, and I think Chelsea will want to loan him to another Premier League club, like they have done with Sturridge and Lukaku. If we get promoted, it could be us.
I also think Chalobah will be loaned out again, this time to a prem side, he's a couple of years away from being a Chelsea first teamer. Hopefully laned back to us if we go back up, can you think of a better manager for him to play under than the magic man himself, Zola?
Personally think Vydra has most of the power on what he does. I'm sure I've read that his contract runs out in 2014, leaving just one more year on it. I would say he either signs for us on a 4/5 year contract, or moves to a Premiership team. Pozzos won;t want to lose him on a free next summer, and if they can;t get him to sign a new deal, they will cash in (assuming his contract length is correct) As for Chalobah. I'm pretty sure he will go out on loan again, but maybe not the destination. Chelsea may want another season of toughening him in the Champiionship before a season in the Premiership with a Wigan/Swansea (or us if we are there). If we do go up this season, there is a chance he might stay with us another season for a bit of continuity, but I can't see him playing regularly for Chelsea for maybe 2 more seasons after this, so might as well get him game time
I think we should drop vydra for 1 or two matches and let fessi replace him, as he looks knackered. That's why he's on a bad run (for him).
All this means is that clubs will have to pay more for him, it is still uncertain he will remain with us :-(
Sunderland was the club. If GBP12 million was rejected six months ago and Matej is now player of the season and Udinese have sent Chelsea away for Euro15 million, how did Sunderland think their offer would get Matej.
Maybe if Chelsea are sniffing there is a potential player plus cash deal to be had....Chalobah plus say 10 million...I think Chalobah will be even better next season, and arguably have a bigger sell on value than Matej in the future. Of course both playing for watford next season would be my favourite outcome.
Greetings HHTFCC1 I see you have been around for a long while I agree IF we can keep them both will be fantastic. Chalobah has a lot of improving to do and would be great if he can do it with us...
Thanks for the welcome Yorkshire, I can honestly say that Chalobah is THE best 17/18 year old I have ever seen in terms of vision and range of passing...if it was a straight decision between keeping one or t'other I would definitely go for Chalobah, as I think we have enough goals in us elsewhere, and we would likely get a replacement for Vydra from the Pozzo's.
