Antoine Semenyo | Prefers to join City - Ornstein (p73)

Agreed, think Semenyo is a good player. Not a great one. He's better than Bobb and Savinho, but i dont think he's in that elite bracket. I'd be more concerned if United pipped us to Wharton, Anderson etc.
Media are gonna wank themselves silly if he goes the rags, but it is what it is.

We also cant afford the elite bracket in this day and age? Olise, Doue, Barcola are all literally impossible to get? Semenyo if we signed him could hopefully go up levels working with Pep and better players?
 
Rumours are rags willing to pay £75 million to secure him, £65 release clause and 10m in wages.

only problem is they want to pay the £65M over 5 years + rather than outright

release clause is 65m upfront i believe so that wont fly and also 10m in wages over 5 years only amounts to about 40 grand a week is it 10m a year in wages and even if it was a year thats only just shy of 200k a week which isnt mindblowing and likely what hed be on at us or the dippers.

Barcola is possible, he just has no finishing ability
 
True but it wasnt going to be the fee that the dippers paid? How much would Bayern want for Olise and i really dont think the player wants to leave anyway? Doue or Barcola would be how much? £150m each starting price?
I think it's always been true that it's very hard to sign happy players at elite clubs on hefty wages, and it has always been true that elite players moving from upper tier clubs have many suitors.

They are tight arses and, as said they are trying to negotiate instalments.
The contract was mentioned at 3 years, payments of fee at 5

these reasons are why I think they have no chance, the scruffy yonner won't stump £65M


Well unless he gets a government grant ;-)

They can offer other things over City

I mean , who can turn down the chance to play in a circus tent. Even though he will be 35 by then.

We literally bought Cherki for about 30m six months ago. Dont always have to pay a fortune.Something might pop up again in the summer. 65m seems a lot to me for someone who might reach the top. If we signed him I'd not be disappointed, but likewise I wouldn't be if he we didn't. I think he improves the rags unfortunately, and probably the dippers, but we can't sign players just to stop um going our rivals.
 
For what it's worth, we activated Grealish 100million quid release clause, and paid that in 3 installments, so its possible.
