Valencia in for Negredo?

[C.C]

Just watching the special football focus on transfer deadline night and the guy just said:

"Negrado to Valencia on loan, not with an option to buy, but an obligation to buy?"

What does that mean & why - anyone know?

It means they effectively bought him, and are using the loan with the obligation to buy as a way to get around ffp.

Means they have to buy him, not just suck it and see. he is gone.

We just sold our 4th choice injured striker whose 29 years old for 30 mil, because he didn't want to play for us. Sounds like a win win to me.

Usually if players ask to leave the fee drops, so well done city!

The way we do our business now, i have no doubt that we'll be scouting strikers for the next 4 months, and if were short we'll have one brought in on the 1st of jan....with a promise to pay in the summer obviously.

Our scouting is now top notch, fernando proved this in 2 games, I think we should be excited and look forward to who's gonna replace him, cos they will no doubt be worth the wait.

However, i wish the beast all the best.

Hang on..I'll pop on Chelsea's forum to see if I should be offended or not

A well humoured response to some not so well humoured c**tery.

You might do well to note it was him who started the not so well humoured c**tery.

It means they are contractually obliged to but him after the loan period. Just a wild guess.

We couldn't splash the cash because of the UEFA sanction.

We can splash it in January - up to a point should we be able to find a player at the right level. No more restrictions

Celebrate that. It's something

Lots of City fans annoyed we are down to 3 strikers but please note he can't play until October at the earliest and would miss the Champions League games, so if we lose our strikers between October and December, we could buy in January

The risks about going through an entire season with Only 3 strikers are being over-stated.

We are also forgetting that this player left at his wish, and he had not scored for an eternity. Had we needed him this season, which Negredo would we get? Legitimate question I think

We've done right by the player, got a great financial deal.

Short term pain admittedly

Unnecessary short term pain that could last until seasons end.

Will be hard pressed to get a quality striker in January.

Maybe Torres will miss England (LOL).

18 outifeld players to carry us through until Jnauary, Sinclair , Boyata and Nasty are unlikely to feature much unless we have an injury crisis when we lose YAYA and Lampard.

Looks like we might have do a fair bit of business in January if we are still on Chelsea's heels.

I'm not sure with the transfer priorities, and FFP sanction we could have done anything else, but it is what it is, and we have to move on now

We are more exposed than we would like but nevertheless there is the January window and if we need to we could make a big signing then. There are a lot of teams with good forwards who will have been knocked out of the Champions League by then.

The advantage to this is that Dzeko, Aguero and Jovetic will be match fit and motivated. At times I've felt that Dzeko and Negredo weren't at times. One of them has been right out of the picture.

'Homesick' on a hundred grand a week.. I've changed my mind on this, fuck him.

TBF none of us have a clue why he might need to return to his home country. He hasn't gone awol and the club seem happy enough to sanction the deal. Could be serious personal issues beyond his control.

No we don't, but we've still been left in the lurch. Maybe 'fuck him' is too strong, but imagine the vitriol on here if this was Yaya engineering a move on deadline day

And as sure as night follows day, excitement turns to disappointment turns to recriminations turns to denial turns to blue on blue attacks. Was ever thus.

It means pretty much what it sounds like, Valencia have been spending big this summer and in order to balance their own books have taken him on loan but are, at the end of his loan term, contractually obligated to purchase him for the agreed amount (something akin to 24m) now I'm only assuming this is based heavily on certain targets being met by the player himself
