Transfer News and Gossip Transfer Rumours Thread 2023-24 (Part 2 - Back in Business. Oh no we’re not)

[Tampa Blue]

Wonder who the replacement keeper will be? Hoping for a wise old head like Martin was

 

[amsemp]

And we will probably have people spelling his surname wrong on here

That’s nothing. I just spelt it wrong on google and now I feel unsafe on the internet.

Bromley have signed Marcus Dinanga from Gateshead.

Top NL striker moves to EFL. With Tolaj going, if we can add a proven scorer to Cards and Waldron, then we are going to have a tasty frontline potentially.

I made the same mistake looking for Gary Oldman movies.

Missing that r scared me for life

I agree just need this takeover to be completed and this poxy embargo removed so we can add 2/3 to the squad

Maidenhead have scooped £4m from the £40m transfer of Max Kilman from Wolves to West Ham!

Would have been £8m, but the 20% sell-on clause was negotiated down to 10%.

Nice business

 

[leeblue]

X2 Strikers. Got a feeling they may go dackers and sandat again.

The sell on clause hasn't been negotiated down, Maidenhead will make £8M

No they won't Wolves told them it would break the deal if they didn't accept 10% sell on fee as opposed to 20%.

A classic case of big club bullying BS, but that's what the game has become. Still not bad business and hopefully it could be us one day if COSU obtain ownership.

"Maidenhead United to bank around £4million from Max Kilman's £40m transfer to West Ham through a sell-on clause. It was originally 20% but negotiated down to 10% or deal might have collapsed."

Imagine a guaranteed £4m being injected into your club, must feel like an adrenaline shot. Obviously, like any transaction, the full amount doesn't go straight to any club. That £40m will be paid in installments, as will the £4m to Maidenhead. In some ways that's better though. Smaller clubs struggle with consistent revenue but with this, you have a guaranteed, consistent revenue stream coming in over a period of time. Well done to them. This is how the football pyramid should work.

 

[They Call It Madness!!!]

Just think the amount of football clubs being sold for £1 that you could purchase?!

It's great news for Maidenhead, fair play to them. They've lost some of their big players so will be interesting to see how Devonshire replaces them.

I wonder if we will benefit from any sell ons in the near future? That being said, it wouldn't surprise me if sell on fees had been bought out by clubs knowing the years of turmoil we have been in.

I agree but if Wolves signed up to a sell-on clause of 20% to Maidenhead they should honour it.

If only there was a football regulator to stand up for the smaller clubs... what a good idea that might be

If we can get Paul McCallum from Eastleigh that would be a terrific strike force we would have I know he would cost a bit you never know

Personally can’t see it, he will require a lot of money thrown at him … something the consortium have said exactly what they won’t be doing

To be fair we do need a few players I can see him taking up quite a bit of the budget someone put on here he would be our highest paid player

By a long way as well, don’t get me wrong I would be more than happy with it, just can’t see it, we are more likely to have someone of the Wylie type I would so, low risk but high reward if it works out

To be fair I thought he would be snapped up by an efl club the goals he scored last season

I understand McCullum is not one we were seriously after. Pearce however was...

I think Pearce would have happened were it not for the embargo, but similarly, if he was absolutely dead-set on coming here then he might have waited it out. York was a serious enough alternative proposition for him that he decided to go there rather than wait for us.
