A player is worth what the buying club are willing to pay.

Do Chelsea really have any buyback or sell on clauses?Tino Livramento's price will be over £80million because of the sell-on fees to Chelsea. Also Chelsea has a buyback clause, maybe this is why City didn't sign Delap back, maybe City have done a deal with Chelsea, knowing we wanted Tino Livramento ?
Anyway, City will have to pay top dollar is we want him
Also Chelsea has a buyback clause
Not for nothing, but i think this assessment of Kyle Walker was on point. He ofyen sos look like Nicah Richards defensively. Just braun farr after evety now and then. Cant count how many times Kyle was at fault for keeping the guy on the opposite side of the field 'on side' :(
They bought him from Southampton. Why would Chelsea have any clauses?
But Livarmento is too expensive for what he will bring.Not many players are.
To be fair Walker played a lot longer at a top 6 club and didn't cost that much and had plenty of full international caps behind him. £45m for a 27 year old who was fully in his prime wasn't that steep. Despite his weaknesses. Livarmento is going to cost us more money for potential. As I keep saying his worth more to Newcastle than he is going to be for City.
Walker had the attention span of Aaron Ramsdale. He was at his best with someone trying to burst past him, when he could easily match them for speed and out power them to the ball. But get us into a defensive position and you could just wander round the back of him whilst he was busy flashing his todger to some girl he'd spotted in the crowd.Not for nothing, but i think this assessment of Kyle Walker was on point.

I thjnk the way we all remember Kyle is by thinking of the Vini game or the Mbappe game. But that's was just Kyle at his beat. He was good against Uner talented and speedy wingers who won with speed and dribbling
Peak Kyle would have locked down Doku, Vini, Savio, Dembele etc. ir was crafty guys who hung just off your shoulder like Marmoush or Wissa, Bowen, Johnson, and Gibbs White's of the world that Peak Walker struggled with.
Newcastle bought Livramento from Southampton who paid Chelsea 21m to buy him so how the hell do Chelsea have a buy back or a sell on clause?if you need and want him badly enough, then the selling club have you over a barrel. It becomes what the player is worth to his club and not market value. City normally walks away when it's clear the selling club has priced him at his worth to them if he leaves.
Kane and Wirtz are a prime example that City don't overpay anymore, we have our price and maybe wiggle room on add-ons, The modern players now have clauses set in their contracts and are willing to sign for longer, like 5 to 9-year deals with a get-out clause.

Sorry, I misread the deal to Southampton when Newcastle signed him
Ah apologies I didn't see this. :-)Sorry, I misread the deal to Southampton when Newcastle signed him
He's 22 so if he does sign it's not going to be just for a couple of years - it'd be a 5/6 year deal no doubt.But Livarmento is too expensive for what he will bring.
Bet it wouldn't, in the unlikely event they sell him it will be cash only and a lot of it. Hope they do but won't hold my breath.Give them 30m plus McAtee and Grealish. That will do the deal.
Can't say I know how deep Newcastle's squad is but if they need more depth I could see how it might interest them. I 100% don't think that'll happen (maybe McAtee on a standalone deal), but you never know.Bet it wouldn't, in the unlikely event they sell him it will be cash only and a lot of it.
