Freddy move to Coventry back on

[Aberdeen Shrimper]

By all accounts, the move to Coventry was not dead in the water at all, there was allegedly some dispute between the agents fee and the salary.

According to a friend of Mrs AS who works offshore and is heavily involved with Wolves FC, the deal was never off, this guy only mentioned it to her because he knows that I am a Blues fan and thought I would be interested to know. He is off the opinion that same as most of us that MM is a toss*er for not playing him and he reckons most Wolves supporters are gutted that Freddy have has not had a chance to show them what he can really do and now never will.

Here's hoping it's £2m as per the BBC Gossip Column yesterday.
Is the sell-on clause 10, 20 or 25%?

Exactly mate......that is what is on my mind....i thouhgt it was 25%, can anyone confirm??

a nice £500k would not go a miss

It's %age of profit, not total fee I believe.

So then is that why Ron is claiming the fee is lesser than Wolves.
E.g. if Fred actually went for £750k & gets sold for £2m then that's £1.25m profit, and equates to approx £300k if the clause is 25%.

Bugger, so whne he goes to Coventy we will probably get next to nothing then??

If this had been posted 22 minutes later then I might actually be more convinced.

yep. % profit fees seem to say (well at least to me) that it's a kind of gurarantee to the buyer that they are getting a good player. we may be holding out for 2m and wolves only offer 1.5m (made up figures) and because we can't reach a consensus, we might say, ok, put on a 25% profit fee because we know he is good, and worth more than 1.5m. if you sell him on we are pretty sure a profit will be made and we want a slice of it

obviously we didn't factor for MM being a prat over selections, and Freddy continuing to not do himself any favours with his off the pitch behaviour... and hence why Cov could snag a bargain and we could miss out

So you're standing by this then and not going to blow a big fat raspberry at us?!

My red rep finger is getting poised......................

 

[Andyhsufc]

tbh, it is still 125k which would pay for the majority of Walkers fee so it is better than nothing

No........because this morning was an amnisty for wind up
