Bid rejected for Clarke

[League Wan]

This article says he's keen to get away and play at a higher level and that Burnley gave a bid that we asked for earlier but we turned it down. He's not happy that we went back on our word.

What a complete load of bollocks.

15m upfront and if he wants away then I'd let him go for that. Ideally don't want him to go at all. I even think at 15m he'd be under valued but if he wants away then 15m upfront would be my asking price. Bristol City have just rejected 20m with add ons reportedly for Alex Scott. We've no reason to be bent over and held at ransom. Promotion is the aim and Clarke is arguably our best player.

Can't even put a price on him cos we have no idea how much of it will go to Spurs.

What, you mean like when Clarke had the opportunity to stay at Spurs in the Premier League, but chose to come and play for us in the Championship?

League one

League one

Even better.

I hope Clarke stays, he’s a game changer at this level and 11 players of his ability would walk this league

I don't know why people are stressing, he joined us when we were in L1 and he was PL. Every interview he's like 'most important thing is being settled', why's he going to go back to the PL for a worse team than he left? Why does anyone think Clarke is desperate for a bit of Burnley when he's already picked us over Spurs?

IMO

Whatever that figure is we'd have to have a similar clause with the buying club. And then some. We have to dig in though because £10m is an insult.

I reckon he'd be shit in goal mind.

Think the price we put on him is promotion. Its that simple for me. We let him go and we won't replace with anyone as good or better. That'd weaken out attack further and prevent us going up costing much more than we could make on a sale.

How many years left on his contract.

Trust me, you can tweet and suck a dick at the same time

I’m not going to ask how you know that.

 

[cmmackem]

They think this is 2010?

 

[andysafc85]

Honestly wouldn’t sell him for any less than £25m

That's what Bristol City are quoting for Alex Scott, plus Clarke has 2 yrs left on his contract.

I think this summer is the peak of his value. Even if he delivers the same numbers again next season he’ll be 12 months from the end of the his contract and his value will drop. So if he’s worth (say) £15m now, he’ll be worth that at a maximum next summer

100% mate.

It seems every source possible is saying Clarke is happy or more than happy at SAFC apart from Downie and Fishpaste. Someone is putting out duff info to the media. Wonder who and why

He has 3 years left on his contract.....doesn't he?

 

[U39]

2025 it runs out doesn't it? Could be wrong of course.
