Exactly and correct me if I’m wrong but we were offered a similar fee last year and the difference between him now and then is like we bought a completely different level of player
€30 million plus a sell on and maybe a couple add ONS please absolutely flabbergasted he’s chose Dortmund hope he smashes it but defeats his whole narrative
Wonder if they’re using the well known gentlemen’s agreement as leverage for a lower price? “We know you’ve agreed to sell him and he’s agreed to come here so tough”
Or maybe this is where deal breaks down? My info is Jobe himself decided to stay. As I said just passing on what my pal is ‘absolutely certain’ of We turned down more than that from Palace a year ago.
He is totally convinced or is not have out it up here and made myself look a tit. That said, it is what it is, if he has decided to go after all it’s got to be 30 plus add ons. Jude went for £139million. Jobe isn’t Jude but it’s a marker.
If he’s decided he would like to go to Dortmund then get the best deal and get it done quickly as we can. Huge summer without losing a key player so don’t want a long running saga. Disappointing if he goes but Dortmund are an incredible club like and feels right for his development. Would have been nice to give us one more year but we move on.
Im only messing mate I know stuffs posted in good faith and things can change rapidly happens all the time in football, im relaxed about it id resigned myself to him going months ago, excited to see who we replace him with
Aye. Could be he struggles PL and value plummets we don’t know. I doubt that but could happen. I do wonder if he sees that and that’s why doesn’t want to go PL.
Think it will end up being around 30m euro myself. Which I’m happy enough with but would obviously want more. Especially when you compare it to the Archie gray deal
