Has Roefs got a sell on clause?

If therea a hefty sell on im sure the club would look to see if we could involve a player coming to us if the worst happened. Theres ways around sell on clauses
I don't think that this is one of them, but if you'd care to explain.
 

The rumour is the release clause only comes into play if we don't stay up, Wasn't Le Fee's deal which brought him here also on condition of us getting into the prem?They do have good foresight for deals, I suspect down to KLD.

Said it before only big name we will lose is Isidor.

They aren't going to lose Roefs after one season when they have planned for the next five 5. He'll be in those plans as will Xhaka, Sadki and Alderete and we know there's a five year plan because Xhaka said its what brought him here.
Plans, 3/4/10 whatever aren’t worth a pinch of goat5hit unless you are a real big club which we are not
Mbappe wanted out at PSG arguably richer than Real. They tried to hold out etc but he went out on his terms and PSG folded. As did NUFC with Isak
Financially we are nowhere near those clubs in terms of financial muscle
Once a players head is turned they stink the place out
We all have red and white specs and expect loyalty etc, but reality is we have little choice but to take money and run
 
If we will him for 60m surely we won’t have to sell anyone else we don’t want to?
Hopefully not.
£60M for Roefs, £20M for Adingra, say £10M ish for Isidor perhaps. £90M + say £50M additional/budget. £140M and bring maybe 6 players in of the required quality.

Clubs will be interested in Talbi and Sadiki no doubt, maybe even Ballard and Alderete who have both been absolute machines all season, Omar can play a bit too.

Talbi and Sadiki will definitely stay imo -
at least for one more year. Talbi has been hot and cold (as most young wingers are) and Sadiki’s end product will go against him as a box to box midfielder for the top clubs.

I’d say Roefs is likely to leave, Ballard will have interest and maybe even Le Fee & Brobbey.

Agree with all that.

I don't want any of them to leave, but if it were just Roefs and a couple of the fringe / loaned out players that go, that would probably be as good as we could hope for really.
 
Chelsea paid 70 million for Kepa who is nowhere near as good as Roefs. Not sure I would go there anyway if I were him. He can and will do better.
 
He's just turned 23. Whoever eventually signs him is going to get the best part of a decade out of him, realistically £60m is the cheap end.

I wouldn't begrudge him a move to someone pushing for European honours.
I genuinely see him as a top 10 goalkeeper world wide in a year or two.

With that said, ya talking a top club picking him up, with hopefully a keeper to come the other way that holds our interest!
 
Much as I'd like to keep him if someone came anywhere near £60m for him, he will be gone. Some offers are just too good to turn down
 
Yup, not least because we play very deep and his footballing ability is key to the way we play. Elborg looks a very good keeper but he's not as good as Roefs on the deck and that puts us under pressure a bit more when we're try8ng to play it around at the back.
Hope so but can see him going if its
Stupid Money. As with anyone….sos. Wrong reply…..

Looks like we have a good relationship with chelsea , especially after the guiu ( sp) situation at start of season, so maybe sell to chelsea say £70m and loan back for 1 or 2 seasons would be excellent business

Love Omar me. He will also be in shop window in WC too
In a team like United or Non relegated Spurs he’d be a revelation. It seems his wage with us is 65k pw, which would be chump change to clubs like those.
At his age you wouldnt blame him ( at 28 yo) for a last 3 or 4 years on 100kplus pw which those 2 clubs and others could easily afford ( and more )
 
I’m sure I read somewhere that was a release clause that might be as low as 40 mill because Roefs wasn’t particularly high profile or sought after when we signed him. Basically his rapid progress has taken people by surprise.

If Chelsea bought him they'd need him from the off that sanchez is shite like
