Loosey Boy Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 So…..assuming this would be our third signing on the basis that BT said earlier that two were “verbally done” yesterday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No true but if a player has a good season for us hes has his head turned by promises of a great wage increase and the prospect of playing in the Prem and we cant turn it down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I understand it but contract length remaining and FFP position do play an important role. Sunderland are clear of it. Currently Jobe Bellingham was cited at £20m, Jack Clarke £25-30m. I suspect that could price one or both out of a move this summer if it stayed that way- of course prices move, negotiating positions emerge etc. Birmingham turned down for Jordan James e.g. in January.

INCRED Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 1 hour ago, Ian M said: Here's the obligatory YouTube showreel. Not so much for his finishes, every pro can make a highlight reel look ok, I'm more interested in his "presence". Not only is he 6'4" but he makes the others on the pitch look like children! My favourite moment was someone grabbing his shirt and it having literally zero affect on him. Also seems happy to kick with either foot. Must say, he looks a good all round striker, good in the air, good on the deck with a powerful strike and no slouch with the ball in behind Reminds me of Olly Watkins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 Also @westonred Plymouth possibly turned down Lazio interest for Whittaker. Plymouth aren't with respect a divisional big hitter, it can be good if financial position and contract length align. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As alluded to previously, James Piercy has been pretty immaculate thus far. This could also be a case though as others have mentioned where the truth is somewhere in the middle. The selling club may be trying to drive an auction but we could be close to agreeing a fee, we are trying to do the opposite and play it down. It could also be a timing thing, Piercy may have been told second or third hand with a delay whereas the Austrian media could be all over it. I will say the wording (and it may just be the translation) is pretty adamant. Will be interesting to see and from the limited clips certainly looks exciting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsofclay Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 We are sharp operators here at this club. He hasn't even signed for us yet but already we're discussing selling him to a Premier club and when best to do it. 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Austrian giants apparently rejected Bristol City’s first two offers of €1.5m and €2.5m, respectively. With more clubs showing an interest in Mayulu, Bristol City upped their bid to €3.5m and the third and final offer did the trick. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That figure represents a big profit for the Austrian side, who signed the striker on a free transfer from Blau-Weiß Linz just a year ago.
