200m for Mac & Jude would be a hell of a CM revamp. would love it.

It really would,and with the expected progression of some of our academy kids added to those signings,we would be set for the next 5 years.

Come on man, "tapping up" is just the standard way of doing things and everyone does it, ourselves included.

It might not be in the rules but since when has that been important?

We probably thought exactly the same in 1906 tbf….

Inter stuggling with cash, Barella & DiMarco just to help out. prob get the pair for about 100m looking at the press stories/rumours.

Inter will be getting almost €100M from CL this season, so that might ease their struggles.

No players is signed using those terms.

what terms?

 

[Keeper!]

what terms?

No club goes to the other club first and ask to sign their player, NO CLUB.

Players always are and always will be approached by the buying club first, the deal is done with the player, then the buying club will contact the other club but ususaly through the players agent.

 

[MarsLlama]

It is still tapping up.

Club approach club
Club says ok
Club says to player club A is interested
Player says yes/no
If yes proceede onto negotiations
If no look elsewhere

In one day a club will know if a player is interested.

Then again it is easier to tap the player up early so he can be difficult and get his fee reduced

Been a very long time since it worked like that.

Made no secret of my admiration of this lad.

Looking forward to seeing how he performs today against a top side,he always plays his best game but he'll be out to impress that bit more today.

 

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

Excellent today.

 

[FantasyIreland]

Excellent today.

I actually thought he was under par for much of the game,such is his quality.

 

[skillman]

Would be a shame if he goes to the dippers. He’d be brilliant here. But then so would Bellingham, Rice or whoever else we have lined up.
