Yeah but the multiplier would be less because from the sounds of it there's friction there so either he wants away (or his agent does kerching). Be awesome if true it's the sort of calibre we need to bring in
Plus there will definitely be sell on value on his purchase price. At 24 his best years are ahead of him. Please!!!!!!!!
apparently palace have accepted a 6m (could rise to 8m) offer from Bristol City for Dwight Gayle, so guessing thats him off our scope, which kinda pleases me a bit as didn't see him as an upgrade on what we have
I love the fact we discuss the Destro link on here (as ridiculous as such a rumour is), and shortly afterwards it's up n Vital Norwich! http://www.norwich.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=408792 I swear this happens a lot with the more left-field rumours. I reckon Vital Norwich read this forum. Could the author even be one of us!?
Mattia Destro would be brilliant. Can't see this happening unfortunately. There is no formula for calculating what his purchase price will be that I have access to I'm afraid, sorry chaps .
From the looks of that article (if there's any accuracy in the rumours), nothing will happen until Dzeko is confirmed at Roma. Hadn't realised that the other side supposedly interested (Bologna) are only just promoted too, so not a dissimilar level to us. It's not like we're competing with teams with Europa league as a draw.
Oi oi! Transfer Central TNC @TransferNewsCen 6m6 minutes ago Celtic will revive interest in £3m-rated Club Brugge defender Brandon Mechele with speculation over Virgil van Dijk's future. (Daily Record)
Pete O'Rourke @SportsPeteO 2m2 minutes ago Bristol City have £6million bid accepted for Crystal Palace striker Dwight Gayle. #bcfc #cpfc please log in to view this image
According to the Italian press it's the other way round - Dzeko passed his medical etc several days ago and they are all ready, but they didn't realise they'd filled their quota of foreign players and therefore need to sell in order to buy. The only issue with that is that Mattia Destro is not foreign (to them...) So someone's got something wrong there
Bit more colour on Destro: http://www.chiesaditotti.com/2015/8/6/9104435/mattia-destro-seems-bound-for-bologna-move So the price tag is about EUR12m, which ironically is exactly £9.1m at today's exchange rate
£6m for Gayle? Didn't Pardew supposedly put a £10m pricetag on his head? Or was that only to Premier League rivals.
