When does the buy back clause run out. I’d prefer to leave him for a bit and sort the midfield and defence out and pick him up after all that’s sorted

The problem with doing that is Chelsea will buy him for £50m now instead of us getting him for £30m in the summer. Like they did with Lavia.

if we have a buyback clause, what chelsea offers will be irrelevant as we have any brains i would imagine that ours take precedent over anything else

Not if we wait to use it though.

then that would be our choice, but if chelsea come in and offer 50 now then our buyback would come into effect and we could activate it and sell him onto chelsea and make an easy 20m

buyback isnt active till summer by all reports. if chelsea offer 50 now, we have to match that.

ah okay

I feel like he’s too similar to Haaland, so likely they wouldn’t be on the pitch together much. And I don’t think delap will accept being a back up. Better to get someone like marmoush who is more creative and can play anywhere upfront

Why sign Gyokores (sorry if spelling wrong) for £60m plus when Delap is literally doing the same thing for half the price?

Prefer that we would have had the foresight to have known what he’d become and kept him .

Very similar to haaland and I was saying in the Leicester match thread any time haaland has an oʻopportunity to run straight in space he should do it like delap does. For this reason I feel we should look at a more versatile forward who can also get minutes in and around haaland however delap will be at a top side one day and if he wants to try city then id take him back
