Norwich pursuit of Hull winger Robbie Brady halted by his £7m price tag

Norwich are balking at Hull City's £7million valuation of transfer target Robbie Brady.

The Republic of Ireland international is wanted by Canaries boss Alex Neil as he prepares for life in the Barclays Premier League.

But their hopes of landing Brady are being threatened by Hull's high asking price.

Norwich are prepared to pay in the region of £4.5million for Brady this summer - but are currently unwilling to meet the former Manchester United's man full price tag.

Brady was a regular for Steve Bruce's side last season, making 34 appearances for the Tigers as they were relegated for the top-flight.

The 23-year-old Irishman has 13 senior caps for his country, scoring three goals.

He joined Hull permanently in 2013 following two successful loan spells at the club from United.

He's gone from £15m to £10m to £7m. He'll be free if they wait another 3 weeks!
 
The club need to generate some 100% up front cash sales. Ince has now gone, so seven left. Any reasonable cash offer, will be considered as far as the other players on last year of contract are concerned. Every time one goes, the next one is more likely to. If Norwich have got enough Wonga to load into a van Brady could still have one more year as a premier league player.

Name change decision coming soon.

It will be interesting to read the great and mighty Allam's interview in the filthy rag next week.

Can see Norwich offering 2-3 million and writing off what left of the Snodgrass transfer, would imagine we still own them a few bob.

Why is everyone wetting themselves over an article in the daily mail? What makes you think those numbers are in anyway accurate, and aren't just plucked from nowhere like the rest of the bullshit they come out with?

They were all fringe players though and Snodgrass/Brady are better than Ince. Elmo is better than Rosy even at right back and Huddlestone, Livermore and Diame are all better than Quinn. People really are overreacting about them leaving

I couldn't disagree with you more.

I think everything you've typed there is ****e of the highest order, but of course, everyone's entitled to their opinion.

You've got most of it right! Except the Elmo is a better right back than rosy bit!
 
Aside from the bit about Rosie, Id agree. Thudd, Diame and Livermore are better footballers.

I'd agree that Diame and Huddlestone were more gifted than Quinn, but that means **** all if they don't show it when it matters and/or are crocked.

I think Quinn is a better player than Livermore and Ince has done more in the Championship than Snodgrass or Brady ever have.

Even if you agree with it it's completely meaningless. Livermore and Diame are going to be gone soon and neither will play for us, whilst Huddlestone and Brady could easily join them and Snodgrass may well be injured until November and won't be back to his best until after Christmas.

Livermore is obviously a contentious one, but I'd be willing to bet a large stack of cash that Diame will be in the starting line up for us as soon as he's fit and ready. Why on Earth wouldn't he be?

I would argue Brady has done more in the championship than Ince......... didnt he get promoted with us?

Yeah, we had him on loan before then as well. Ince had a decent season at Blackpool which won him a move to Palace.

We aren't going to miss Ince because he never really played for us. It's like saying we miss Pusic, Belaid or Fathy. There's also no guarantee he'll do as well this season as he did last season for Derby.

Livermore isn't really contentious, he's not going to be playing for 2 year, so it's pretty cut & dry really.

If Diame is fit enough to pass a medical he'll be gone this summer.

If not I'd be hopeful that he'd do his best for us in an attempt to secure a good move for himself in January, somehow I can't see that happening though.

Considering he's not fit until the start of September and having been out the last 6 months or so, I'd say it was very unlikely we'll see him leave. And again, he isn't going to play badly or kick up a fuss if he doesn't move, why on Earth would he? What good would that do him other than getting him sent down to the reserves where he won't be in any shop window?

And Livermore's punishment (if he is found guilty, which he probably will be) depends on the results, which we haven't got yet.
