See Coventry have signed Jack Rudoni. Reportedly £6million plus add ons. Thats the kind of business you can do when you sell players for big money.
Think Coventry will be right up there this coming season. They’ve been building towards this for the last 2/3 seasons and this could be their year.
Have to laugh at everyone taking the moral ground against City for their alleged FFP breaches but nobody is batting an eyelid about Villa selling Duran to Chelsea for £40m and Maatsen going the other way for £35m whilst Irogbaneam goes to Everton for £10m and Dobbin goes the other way. £50m of wiggle room instantly added to the coffers even if they spread the costs over 5/6 years.
Think he will be. In the article Speakman talks about Moore pushing Patterson so sounds like he will be the number 2.
Really happy with this. And really like Speakman's write up at the bottom. Sporting Director Kristjaan Speakman added: “We are really pleased to welcome Simon to our Club. This summer, we felt it was vital to identify and recruit a goalkeeper who is capable of pushing Anthony Patterson daily, and who has additional qualities to training and match environments. Simon has a different profile to many players within our group and he is as motivated to push Anthony as he is to help our younger goalkeepers and the wider player group. We are delighted he has joined the Club.” Just what we need. Hopefully a couple of outfield positions of a similar mold to help guide the young lads.
