Might be a little bit north of 30m, but won't imo be the high 50m+ figures people seem to be expecting. It would probably be closer to 30 than to 50.

Yep, seems to be the flip side of looking after our players and why they stay as long as they do.
We will always try and make their departure as fair as possible even if it means losing a few quid along the way.

Unless you are Bernardo.

But yeah, agree.

Utd paid just under 44m for Onana, with another 3.5m in addons depending on performance and success. So; just under 44m then! Yes Onana was three years younger when he signed for "The World's Greatest Club"™ than Ederson is now. But, seriously; are you going to tell me that Onana is a more valuable goalkeeper than Ederson?

No of course not. I am not arguing 'worth'. Just what I expect the club to accept. Like they did with Laporte, Mahrez, and other players they let go for a 'fair' value. I don't like it, but I think people are in for a big surprise with these expectations of 100m for KdB and 65m for Eddie.
 
Transfermarket lists Eddie’s value at 35 million

I’m surprised the number is that low considering goaltenders can play until an advanced age.
 
Even his price that we are asking for seems to be reasonable and I find it mad that a lot more interest hasn’t been made.
He would get in pretty much every team in Europe.

Agreed, but ultimately I think there just isn't really anywhere appropriate for him to move to.

Clubs in Italy? Assuming they could afford it, it is really just a bit of a climate change, with less chance of winning things. In Spain, Real are stacked. Barcelona won't even pay 20m to keep Cancelo permanently. Psg? A bit boring. Bayern, maybe but going on the opposite direction to Portugal. Saudi, doesn't seem the type.

So it is stay, till ready to return to Portugal (something he has said a few times before) or squeeze in a contract at Barcelona before he returns, if they have any more levers left.
