I don’t see why they’d need rice sold before buying a striker
There are 2 scenarios here. Only offer is the SL one and that’s it. Or a club like West Ham have said we will make a formal offer for Vik once Rice moves on for example.

Definitely maybe our kid!!When? If? Maybe?
The idea that no PL side is interested would really surprise me.
Yeah possibly, though it’s not that much money for a player with his record, especially when you look at other PL successes.It could be a case that some have made enquiries but have been put off by the club's asking price.
It's still a risk though. Plenty of players who excel at one level can't make the step up. Even for us there are clear examples like McNulty, Walsh and arguably Dabo. He may well do well but it's not a given.Yeah possibly, though it’s not that much money for a player with his record, especially when you look at other PL successes.
Perhaps his finishing is too much of a concern.
course you can.All the prem clubs are doing is seeing how much we will sell for, then match it ,and give the player a higher weekly salary. You cant agree £18m with sporting then ask west ham everton etc for more.
I've said time and time again too that it seems Gyokeres wants to go somewhere where he'll play and be the main man, his agent will no doubt he feeding the same message to any clubs interestedIt could be the case that some have made enquiries but have been put off by the club's asking price.

But if they really wanted him why wouldn't they just bid and say that is our offer based on our valuation of him? Then it at least opens a dialogue.
It is more likely, although he is on the radar of some club's, he is not their primary target.
PL clubs aren't going to spend £20m for the sake of it though. It's still a large sum of money. Ultimately buying a striker out of the Championship with no PL experience is a risk, and there's far more examples in recent years of it not working that it actually paying off.
So we should sell early in the window for less than we think a player is worth?An initial enquiry will usually be made before a concrete offer is tabled otherwise they could just be wasting their time.
As mentioned in reality it's probably a case that PL clubs just aren't really all that interested and the club's valuation is beyond what they deem is acceptable. If SL have tabled a €20m package then the club should take it as they're unlikely to get a better offer.
Waiting in the hope that WH come in with a £25m bid is a ridiculous strategy.

It’s not a large fee for a striker though. And the same can be said for buying from any other league.

Yeah, I just don't get the logic in accepting a under valuation offer just because it was there.Well Sporting have pitched an offer below valuation? So it would make sense for another to at least match it as an opener?
Kenilworth hasn't said that?So we should sell early in the window for less than we think a player is worth?
That logic is flawed, Vik may be foreign but he would be seen as a domestic signing by the buying clubs i.e. a player that plays in England in the championship. There are many that have many that have made that step up for more money.Yes true, but usually foreign signings made by PL clubs have played consistently in the highest division of the country they're in and as such have more pedigree attached to their name. Hence why they command the fee they do.
Has it been accepted?Yeah, I just don't get the logic in accepting a under valuation offer just because it was there.

Yes he has, he said we should accept the offer Sporting have made. An offer that we see as below our valuation of the player.Kenilworth hasn't said that?
Where the hell did I say we had accepted anything mate?Has it been accepted?

It's an idiotic tactic to accept under the odds really early in the window as well.No, I'm suggesting the club needs to read the room. It's an idiotic strategy waiting until later in the window in the event a PL club might table what in reality is an unrealistic bid.
It's a risk they're more than entitled to take but Blackburn attempted the same tactic last summer with Brereton Diaz and it failed miserably.

Disappointing we have accepted such a low offer for him.Where the hell did I say we had accepted anything mate?
I am clearly talking about people wanting us to accept the current offer from sporting.

What does where he comes from have to do with anything? He has selected status so no work permits and he plays in the league as them.The vast majority of players have made the step up from the Championship for more money have been English, have been younger, and have had more years on left on their contract than Gyokeres.
