They own half, surely? If another 25% is just a sell-on fee to his previous club and 50% is Doyen.

Sorry, let me rephrase. They're only entitled to 25% of any fee, so they see it 'owning' 25% of the value. So they want the 25% to be worth around €4m-€5m.

So you would think that the €17 million fee that has been supposedly bid from Southampton would be good enough then. Obviously if they did accept it the player will have to want to join as well, unless we've talked to Rojo's representatives first to gauge his interest.

I'm pretty certain that would be the case. So many transfers are that way around these days, and they aren't sending Les out to pursue the deal if there is not at least some indication of interest (or that his wage demands would be within budget) beforehand.
 
Tribal Football just repost what they've read elsewhere. No journalism goes on there at all.
 
Just seen a couple of journalists say they pressed the Sporting president about Rojo.

He confirmed that they had had more than one offer from a club, but refused to name the club.

Same as Blog Saints or whatever it's called on Twitter. Really grim updates of old news. BREAKING NEWS - regarding the signing of Bertrand the following morning after it happened. They just repost paper talk too, I unfollowed them. I'm bad ass like that.
 
Just been speaking to a Sporting fan. He says if SCP can get €4m-€5m for their 25% of Rojo, then he'll be a Saints player.

He thinks Rojo would come to Southampton, and has also said that they've signed a few new CBs already...

My brother in law was at ours a couple of weeks back and he asked how Saints were doing. I told him that we had sold loads of players and looking to buy replacements. He of course asked which players were linked to us and I mentioned Rojo. His instant reply was that it would take £18m (yes he said in pounds) so I guess that is 21-22m euros.
