Tommy Doyle | Signs for Wolves | will be confirmed Jul 1st

Give the midfield turnover we're likely to have in the summer - gundogan, bernardo and maybe even phillips all possible leavers based on the aggregators - wouldn't mind Doyle back at all. Leaps and bounds this season.

Yeah great example of not writing off a player too soon. Seems to be more encouraging noises about James coming back but what a story if he could.. Not heard much about Tommy but hopefully city see a slot for him, trainee KDB maybe .
 
If Sheffield Utd do gain promotion then I think we should just keep him and McAtee they're for another season. They've both been influential for them this season so I'm sure their fans would like to have them for another season. Also, it would give us the chance to see how they fair with a full season in the Prem.

I reckon to bring him back straight away may be jumping the gun a little bit, especially considering he'd also be bedded into the CL as well.

We cant just keep them there. We can only loan one player to them in the PL
 
Really feel this and McAtee’s threads should be moved to the Player Performance forum, as they are City players (on loan) and are no longer part of the Academy (and unlikely ever to be again).
 
Despite a 2-1 loss....Played well for the 21's last night,he brings a calmness controls a game brilliantly.Taken off with 20 mins to play which was a shame.
 
The general consensus of Blades fans is that Sheffield United should make an offer to City for Doyle. Fee around £15m-£20m with buyback clause.

They think Doyle has demonstrated that he can become an established PL player.

If he is prem level then he should be closer to 40m. So if they get him for 20m there should be a bigger than usual sell on fee, eg 50%. Or add ons that rise it up should they stay up.

I think add ons would be realistic but I can’t see a 50% sell on fee being agreed. Would likely be a 20% max sell on. At the moment it is all ifs and buts we don’t know if Doyle wants to leave permanently or if City want to sell.

I just put it in here as that is what Blades fans are discussing, some agree his fee would be higher than £20m, but I have seen as little as £10m suggested also.
 
20m purchase with a 30m 1st year and 40m 2nd year buy back would be fair.

The kid is prem standard,he would get in at half a dozen clubs.
 
Bring him back into the fold next season and let him learn how to play in our team.
He will improve just being in our setup.

I strongly suspect having been instrumental in leading a club into the Prem,he would want a taste of consistent football at that level.
