Fulham in talks for £8m Bristol City winger Callum O'Dowda after Nottingham Forest and Leeds United end interest - reports He has one year left on his contract https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/fulham-talks-8m-bristol-city-3095398
Can’t see us getting that much , we’d be lucky to get that if he’d signed a new deal, but with only a year left on his contract £5-£6m with decent sell on clause would be about right.
when we kick off our first game AND HE IS ON OUR BOOKS he is likely worth nothing, in fact likely to cost us money … January he can sign a contract for "free" and leave next July ...
If he doesn’t sign a contract we would be better off selling now rather than allowing his contract to run out and getting nothing , potential buyers are aware of that which makes it a buyers market, that’s why I suggested £5m-£6m, especially if we can incorporate a good sell on clause, at least then, hopefully, we will benefit from the low sell when he next moves .
He has a 'bit' of an injury record as well, he has missed quite a bit of the last 2 campaigns, so clubs will factor that in with any bid I would have thought. If we get £8m for an injury-prone player that wants to leave, then that's not too bad.
Something not quite right,he did the same at Oxford,not even guaranteed a first team place.GET HIM GONE
This feels like an agent engineered move, trying to find a buyer for his client. I'm not convinced this move makes sense for us at the price being circulated and I suspect if we ended our interest the news story would substitute in Huddersfield or Derby and repeat.
