If I supported a low end premier league club and they spunked 25 million on Vik I’d be a bit pissed off
Why?If I supported a low end premier league club and they spunked 25 million on Vik I’d be a bit pissed off
Why?
12 million is what we will get. We are hardly in a strong bargaining position
Not if there is more than one team after him (there will be)Cos you could easily get us down to half that
Loads of Leeds fans gutted they didn't do exactly that in JanuaryIf I supported a low end premier league club and they spunked 25 million on Vik I’d be a bit pissed off
Nah, Doug is KingForget player swap transfers. Very rare outside of FM.
Cash is King
Supply and demand do you think there will be only 1 club wants him. Scored goals last 2 seasons(no flash in the pan) and improving all the time. Not only bottom of PL the sides going up I think would pay that.IMHO I think he loves the adulation and will stay he will be offered an improved contract .(big fish little pond)Cos you could easily get us down to half that
Apart from being Scandinavian and quite tall he's really nothing like Haaland.£35-40 million. We have an asset that other clubs want and rightly so. He’s being mirrored as the championship Haarland. That comes with a price tag … I bet Brighton are kicking themselves

sorry to say, but good friend who is a Leicester fan, and would love him anything up to £25mwhy? I can think of useless crap for 40-50m in many premier league sides
£20m approx is fair for Vik in todays market
And he wasn't crap, watkins will spend the rest of his career in the prem, mcBurnie though lol, youre also forgetting rhian brewster who was another expensive flop for sheff unitedI don’t know about McBurnie but Watkins had a long contract (4 years to go at Brentford or something)
Then we’d be able to say ‘Twine did’st come’.Irrelevant what others have gone for now
January window was when we would have got the top dollar, 25 Million ball park
With 1 year left on his contract I cannot see us getting more than 12 Million. We aren't in any sort of bargaining position when the player has just a year left
Ideally he signs a 1 year extension on 3 X his wage with a release figure of say 18 Million, but if he doesn't we HAVE to sell him.
This is why I feel player plus cash deals are what we need to look for. If Burnley offered say 8 Million and ,McNally + Twine you'd be stupid to not snap their hands off
Are you Boddy in disguise12 million is what we will get. We are hardly in a strong bargaining position
I'd tend to agree if he had a longer contract.I think we will just fall short of a play off push (injuries) so its inevitable Vik will leave, he will be a very good prem player and if he brushes up his finishing he will be exceptional
I believe a fee of 20mill is now too low, i think 30mill is now a more realistic fee, discuss
Offer him a golden handshake of circa £1M when he signs a contract extension.Vik will sign a contract extension
Desperately needs to stop hammering players if they don’t pass him the ball. He was pocketed tonight and took it out on others. They weren’t very good, but he destroyed JWE and BNC’s confidence.
Angry Vik is only every good when he takes that anger out on the opposition. Tonight was too much.
…I do however condone him going mad at Bidwell for that miss. I was doing the same.
Looks like it's been painted on the side of that boat by a 6 year old.Well...
We already have a % to pay to Brighton so anything less than £15m I'd make him stay his last season and let him leave for nothing as we couldn't replace him and I'd gamble he can get us promoted.
That would be a disaster - he’s not the difference between promotion or not and with that sort of money we could fund a promotion campaign.We already have a % to pay to Brighton so anything less than £15m I'd make him stay his last season and let him leave for nothing as we couldn't replace him and I'd gamble he can get us promoted.
And what happens if we don’t get promoted next season with him?So if we sell him for £12m and £2.4m goes to Brighton, how much of the balance do you think Robins gets? Fir every Vik there's a Hillsner or DaCosta and if hegets half then no way imo can we replace what he gives us in leading the line and goals, which is crucial for the way Robins sets his teams up.
Well yes he could get injured and we might not go up (although equally the new signings could get injured or be a Tyler Walker/Martyn Waghorn too). 20 goal strikers at this level are gold dust which is why there aren't many around and why we haven't had one for years, so I just see it that we have a better chance with than without Vik. If that project fails in two years then we'll likely fall back to low end championship obscurity, but I feel this is our best opportunity since relegation from the Prem.And what happens if we don’t get promoted next season with him?
We then have no Vik and no money.
Can your good friend stick a bid in?sorry to say, but good friend who is a Leicester fan, and would love him anything up to £25m
1 and 2 are the sameThe amount we receive if/when he does leave will ultimately depend on 2 things.
1, How much someone is willing to pay.
2, How many different clubs seriously want him, which could increase the fee significantly.
He’s definitely the sort of player likely to appeal to many different clubs.
Scout list from last night. Doubt anyone wouldve been that impressed. But some interesting clubs represented:
