That's a shame, he's gash.... la Toivonen will remain at Sunderland until the end of the season after Rennes ruled out a return to France for the midfielder.On-loan Toivonen has been limited to a bit-part role under Sam Allardyce’s tenure, with the Swedish international starting five of the Sunderland manager’s 13 games at the helm. Sunderland are understood to have considered the possibility of Toivonen returning to parent club Rennes this month and bringing a premature end to his loan spell, as they have similarly done with Spurs full-back DeAndre Yedlin. But that would have required the consent of Rennes, with Sunderland covering all of the 29-year-old’s wages during his season-long stint at the Stadium of Light. The Ligue 1 outfit are not looking to take Toivonen back though, after they had been keen to offload him last summer to remove his salary from the wage bill. Rennes coach Philippe Montanier confirmed: “He will not return to Rennes.” Sunderland do need to offload players if they are to add further fresh blood to the squad this month after bringing in Jan Kirchhoff and Dame N’Doye from Bayern Munich and Trabzonspor respectively. The Black Cats are close to the limits of their wage bill, and are looking to move on the likes of Will Buckley, Valentin Roberge, Danny Graham and Jordi Gomez. But Allardyce has been able to address the priority positions of centre-half and centre-forward before the halfway point of the window after N’Doye arrived on a four-month loan this week. N’Doye is now out of the country formalising the details of his work permit, with reports in Turkey indicating that Sunderland have paid a fee around the £1million mark to take the Senegal international on loan. Sunderland had been considering various options to strengthen their attacking ranks before opting for the experience of N’Doye, who spent the second half of last season at Hull City. Utrecht frontman Sebastian Haller was one that the Black Cats had been scouting after previously watching the 21-year-old during the summer. Sunderland felt that Haller was still too raw for the Premier League, particularly with the Dutch club looking for a fee of £7m for the Frenchman. Relegation rivals Norwich are willing to pay that and have held talks with Haller this week over a move to Carrow Road. However, Haller’s agent, Loic Gustan, appears to have ruled out a switch to the Canaries. “We did indeed visit Norwich’s facilities and Utrecht’s leaders have good relations with those at Norwich,” said Gustan. “But Sebastian is not expected to join Norwich. We are targeting a club who plays in Europe. “If a club that plays Europe proposes something and closes things with Utrecht, a departure this winter is possible.”
How can the emphasis just be on the borrowing club? Why would we sign a loan contract that prevents us from returning the player?
I don't mind Ola staying for now, at least he's got a bit of quality. Not that he shows it much but hey I've seen worse.
What a shambles they are, must be the worst run organisation in football, that is apart from the FA and FIFA.
A return has to be mutually agreed when a fee is involved because some portion of the fee would be affected.
Standard loan agreement which includes a fee. The club have done nothing wrong!!!!! Some of you lot might want to brush up on the rules and regulations if you insist on slagging the club off every chance you get.
I reserve the right to slag anyone off, including the club, whether I'm right or wrong, usually the former
I thought so. I thought it would be a bit harsh on Rennes if we dumped him back on their doorstep. I mean Rennes could have already spent the wages that they'd have been saving on somebody else.
hope you get better soon Menstruation Common symptoms include acne, tender breasts, bloating, feeling tired, irritability, and mood changes.[4] These symptoms interfere with normal life, and therefore qualify as premenstrual syndrome, in 20 to 30% of women. In 3 to 8%, symptoms are severe.[3]
Would be very harsh on them. We can pay to send him back but that payment would be covering his wages which would make it pointless as no wages would be freed. It's all very very standard,
You on the other hand are doomed to walk this earth a dimwitted **** until the day you die. In which case commiserations
I thought talking ****e was usually the order of the day on here! You hear of clubs sending back loanees now and again. All contracts aren't the same and I don' t see why a player shouldn't be sent back to their home club if they aren't fulfilling their obligations to the club they're on loan to. I don't think thats ****e.
