He's our player, so as part of the deal we could say to Villa that we want 25% of any future sale.

In fact, I'd expect us to do exactly that; if we know that Villa will sell him and they'll get more than they're paying to buy him back, then it would be Andy Goram levels of mad if we didn't put anything in.

If they’re matching what Ipswich have bid they’ll have to match add ons as well I would’ve assumed

I'd guess we can't do that... If they've already got a pre-determined discount I'd be gobsmacked if they'd overlooked us being able to add a sell-on in there if/when he goes back.

It might be that they didn't say we couldn't. Which would be an oversight on their part but has to be something we can exploit.

Unless we're trying to get one of theirs in. Louie Barry or Omar Khedr would be a decent start.

Golly what a shock. Don't know about anyone else but when Acun was quoted saying we'd sign a striker this week, at a point when there hadn't been a single name seriously linked I believed it without question.

He meant oscar didnt he <laugh>

Another 9 pages since this afternoon.

Can someone please summarise what, if anything has actually happened in the last few days? Or have we just had 50 pages discussing clauses and options?

He's a good player and would improve us but it feels similar to the Turkish signings we've made in the past. I don't think he'd stick around very long, he'd cost a good chunk in both transfer fees and wages, he's at the wrong age and we're almost certain to lose money on him. Surely we'd be better off trying to sign somebody younger (around 22-24) and grow and develop them. Hopefully not having to shell out as big wages.
