I don't believe that I'm reading it going to be difficult to unload so many players, all seemed easy earlier in the season every time we lost, if we can't sell them I bet I know who's fault it will be.
Despite his lack of productivity here, Lo Celso goes for bigger money than what people are estimating here IMO. Good form in Spain again despite injuries, well liked in Spain, would have started the WC for Argentina over a midfielder that got in late because of his injury and went for 100m after. Liked by many a manager there and who have manged there.
20m+ IMO
As much as I dislike PEH, for a regular PL defensive midfielder youa re paying more than 20m too IMO.
But where? No one has money. Villareal might be able to find £15m for him, but not much more. It's not a sellers' market
This blanket idea that keeps being trolled out that absolutely no one in Europe has money is not accurate, yes there are some struggling but there are plenty that ain't. Everything seems to get narrowed down to little silos, the managers search can only be based on some made up list where people mentally tick off those they believe turned us down, you can only sign players certain people know, it's either only Lenglet or Dier or no one apparently and no club has money because its true of a few clubs.
This whole it's not a sellers market will be turned on it's head im sure when it comes to the expectations on who Spurs should be buying and for what money.
Villereal owned by a Billionaire, record turnover, made money last window, hard balling Barcelona over Foyth for 60m euros apparently. Hardly the signals of begging bowl times for a club to pay more than 15m for a player that IF they want him and I admit its an IF, but he has performed well for me, they like him, they have invested two seasons in him. His form for them dictates more then 15m
Yeah but even if they do have money this is how these clubs operate.
E.g. we go to Villareal for a player and they will want £50m.
If they come to us for the same player they want a loan deal where they pay 15% of the wages and then have an option to sign the player after the loan for £8m.
To an extent but a player purchased for 45m does not become 15m after two successful season at Villarreal on loan, the judgement on his value is 100% being judged on his Spurs form. The lad gets alot of positive sound bites from managers from La Liga
I am not saying he goes to Villa (Aston), but Emery loves him, if in theory he wanted him and felt he was a crucial piece of how he wanted to play, it would not be 15m
I could well be wrong, like most things haha, but I just think there is Spurs negative bias on some of these. Ndombele I can understand, been on loan twice, third club including us and he has been frankly trash, you would have to 100% take a hit on him, if Lyon don't want him after a loan back to him last season (rightly so on form) no one will.
Lo Celso aside, there will be loads of recycled money in Europe this summer, Dortmund having sold their star for 88m, Rice eventually for 100m which West Ham will likely put back into the market, Havertz, MacAlister, Caiceido, Chelseas Jan Money is already out in the market, all that money will move up, down, sideways and filter into Europe with signings. The PL money will find its way out to the continent and cause a a knock on effect, it generally always does.
I agree Lo Celso is worth a lot more.
Probably a fair price is about £35m but no one will offer that particularly the interested clubs abroad.
They will plead poverty and offer peanuts.
Yeh maybe
He might go Saudi....Neves is 55m wowzers hahah
Actually a shame he is taken out the PL, very good player
Also Dier would be perfect for that league as he has the profile to make him attractive in terms of England international etc.
We could get £25m for him from a saudi club.
Same with Sanchez.
Could get £5m to £10m for Perisic.
£15m for Lloris.
And could see them bidding £80m for Richarlison which I’d take all day long.
Yeh I like Richarlison more than most and don't think we have seen the best but when you frame it, he would be ripe for Saudi and if we got offered major dosh I would most certainly bid him adieu
The plus for the market in general is the over inflated fees will invigorate the market, their dosh again will filter round as clubs look to replace.
Neves going for £50m and only has one year left on his contract.
We could easily get the fees mentioned above from the higher profile dead wood in the squad.
Knowing Levy he would get £100m for Richarlison too. He isn’t one I would look to sell but when you think about his contract length and profile versus his output, £100m would be incredible.
Also Dier would be perfect for that league as he has the profile to make him attractive in terms of England international etc.
We could get £25m for him from a saudi club.
Same with Sanchez.
Could get £5m to £10m for Perisic.
£15m for Lloris.
And could see them bidding £80m for Richarlison which I’d take all day long.
Realistic sales values, considering the market, I'd go:
Forster - free
Rodon - £5m
Tanganga - £5m
Sanchez - £10m
Reguilon - £10m
Sessegnon - £10m
Perisic - free
Winks - £10m
Hojbjerg - £20m
Lo Celso - £15m
Ndombele - £10m
Total = £95m
Which set against say Raya (£30m), Laporte (£35m), Adarabioyo (£15m), Scott (£25m) = £105m, actually works out ok
Add Dier
PEH, Lo Celso, Ndombele, Sanchez could all probably add £5M+ to their price tag (yes, we don't rate them but there really aren't any £5M-£10M experienced top 6 PL/internationals)
If someone was feeling productive, would be good to know where each of those are in their contract
Both may well be on salaries that are outside of Celtic’s range.Rodon or Tanganga could easily be moved to celtic as sweeteners if poste is interested in bringing any of his japanese players to the lane.
