Transfer Rumours Saint Eduard!

As soon as the puns started he decided the deal was dead. The thought of that sort of thing going on for the next couple of years was too much to bear.

 

Could be that we can't meet his bear necessities.

 

This is dragging on too long.


Any chance we can ask Trump to get Spors and their club rep together in Geneva to agree a deal?

 

He's got some nerve his agent, what's his name, Novichok?

 

I think the puns amused him. It would have been dead if we started fish puns......

 

For Pete's Hake, how Cod you suggest such a thing. No Ray!

 

Nithings Dragging , because nothings going to happen .

Except this thread will fade into distant memory with nobody signed .

 

Nooooooooooo! This thread needs to be immortalised like Lenin’s body!

 

Now I don’t know if to use a fish or a Russian pun. It would take a Sturgeon to dissect my dilemma.

 

“At the moment, the situation with Eduard Spersyan remains uncertain. He has an offer from #SaintsFC, where the salary is about €1.9m, Karp wrote about it. Krasnodar is ready to offer much more. According to the media, Edo's current salary is about €2m. The financial side is a secondary issue.

For Krasnodar the priority remains the sale of Spertsyan to the top league of Europe, and not to the Championship. There is interest from the clubs from "Lanza (?)" and "Porto". For three months of summer there were three options from the top clubs, but no club took serious steps, only on the short list. In June, "Porto" suspended negotiations until the end of the club world championship, and now there is contact, but without specifics.

At the moment, neither the club nor Edo himself has made a final decision on the transfer. Now the transition is not close yet, but it is important that there is no solution. The club is not burning with the desire to let Edo go, there is a discussion of the parties. By the end of the next round, maybe it will decide.”

I have no idea how accurate this is, if it’s from someone ITK or not. But at least it’s not more puns.

 

Krasnodar are the Trabzonspor of Russia.

 

Well that must be bullshit as I can't see anyone taking a pay cut to join us

 

I might manage them on FM and fine Spertsyan consistently for no reason, whilst bankrupting them. That'll learn 'em.

 

Yeah I thought that, but I know they report salary as gross in Europe and net in the UK, so whether he’s doing that here (eg gross for his current salary and net for his potential Saints salary) but seems unlikely

 

Anyway it’s sounding like they are just stringing us along to see what other clubs might become interested. Up to us if we want to wait, or sign someone else and then maybe get him as well if nothing else materialises by the end of the window for him.

 

Only way it might happen is if he has a massive wage rise clause if we got promoted. That could happen but still seems unlikely.
