I think they're going to run foul of FFP or whatever it's called now.They must have a great scouting system at Arsenal, they could've had Viktor Gyokeres from us for around £25m Sporting Lisbon could see his potential. They obviously have money to burn.
Not sure it read as 'I want a move' more that he wants to play in the Premier league - hopefully with us; semantics maybe ?I haven't got the FA Cup Semi-Final programme to hand but it was startling how obvious he wants a move in the interview with Sheaf. I'm not surprised he turned down Luton, I guess he wants to be in the PL this coming season. For what it's worth I think Luton will be promoted again this year. They're a strong side.
i want all of our players to want to play in the premier league.Not sure it read as 'I want a move' more that he wants to play in the Premier league - hopefully with us; semantics maybe ?
Me tooi want all of our players to want to play in the premier league.

I would assume unless a specific new agreement is reached as part of the onward transfer, Coventry’s contract is with Sporting so it is them who owe Coventry the money.I never understood this process, So Sporting bought Vik for say 20mil with add ons and agreement of 10% on sell on profit. So are we owed any money from the initial fee and who pays it...
Do the Arsenal pay any remaining balance and Sporting pay the 10%. Or does the original deal with Sporting stay in place regarding installments due.

Q1) How much does Coventry City profit from a Gyokeres deal if he is sold for £75 million to Arsenal with the sell-on clause stated to be 15% but reduced by 10%. Give your working as both reduced by and reduced to.

But what of 13.5% bolux?If it really was 75M in GBP that's around 88.5M EUR... if you assume all bonuses up to 24M have already been paid and the sell-on drops to 10% then that would be a 64.5M profit for Sporting.
So 10% of that is 6.45M EUR and that is just shy of 5.5M GBP for Cov. Would be a very nice wedge indeed... but again... no one credible is actually talking about this Arsenal deal at all in the last month or so and Fabrizio Romano who seems to be a puppet or friend of the agent involved has said nothing since April.
For some context around Sporting's predicament, they just sold their #2 striker Paulinho so Gyokeres is literally all they have left:
Alerta no Sporting: Gyokeres é o único ponta de lança | Abola.pt | Abola.pt
Saída de Paulinho para o México e desistência na contratação de Ioannidis deixam ataque leonino manco; Rúben Amorim analisa nomes do plano Babola.pt
In addition to this, a deal for Ioannidis from Panathinaikos seems to have fallen through, with Ipswich also in the mix there. It's likely Sporting will want to sign a striker immediately if Gyokeres is really going, but they also need at least 2 in anyway or they will be severely limited in attack.
Oh yeah trying to milk it?Guaranteed transfer is not imminent.
First game back after injury. Scores a hat-trick.
Also tweeted out by Fabrizio, seems his agent is letting buyers know his injury is nothing to be worried about.
We need a bidding contestI think its just a matter of time before he is sold and think its going to be more than 1 club involved in chasing him.
I'm amazed every top club in Europe isn't after him, he's totally unique and virtually unplayable.I think its just a matter of time before he is sold and think its going to be more than 1 club involved in chasing him.
How would that work when he’s got a release clause?We need a bidding contest
Sporting could sell him for less than the release figure.How would that work when he’s got a release clause?
I suppose but they’d be fools to do so.Sporting could sell him for less than the release figure.
I think the player would be free to choose to sign for a club that’d met the release clause amount.Not sure actually. I thought, if more than one club offered the release clause amount they would then bid against each other. Or does it stop at that amount and then it's up to the player who he goes to?
I genuinely sometimes wonder if we had one of the world’s best strikers playing for us. I’m not sure if we’ve ever been able to say that before.

I mean, Steve Livingstone was good but…
The only likely way it would work is if the bidding clubs can't afford the full amount up front (as often required to trigger the release clause) and chose to structure it over eg 5 years then the release clause may become irrelevant.How would that work when he’s got a release clause?
