No more than £10 and it will probably include add ons in that as well. He will go to a Championship or promoted team.
People on here massively overate his value.

We don’t need to sell any of our main players so why would we if we are aiming higher again next season as we surely will be.
Fringe players will likely go for fairly modest fees but it frees up wages. Add in income from PL which could be £150m ish and could bring in 2-3 top class first team ready players and 2-3 young players with potential without selling any of current starting 11.
That’s not to say we won’t sell if we get an offer that is crazy money and too good to turn down but we won’t be selling anyone on the cheap.
Whatever happens l have no doubt there are plans to deal with a few different scenarios that may or may not play out over the summer.
I expect us to have a stronger squad particularly greater strength in depth come the start of next season.

I reckon 3 or 4 will go for £130m combined and we'll spend that and another £50m.....
Roefs, Sadiki, Brobbey, Wilson will go, maybe a few others
The only reason why you sell players is because they aren’t good enough. I take it then that in your opinion have they not.
Great plan Sherlock. Sell our best players the moment they arrive and start with a totally new squad every season. No wonder we are a laughing stock!
I suggest that because we feel sad and I’m called stupid among other offensive names, yet someone can suggest selling our 3-4 best players and they are right.
Why stay when you aren’t wanted? We love Brobbey yet are quick to cash in on him the moment the chance of a quick buck arises.
They stay and somehow become good players and again we end up in a mid table position, we sell all of our best players but are unable to buy any of our targets we need to replace players like Sadiki, Diarra, Ballard, O’Nien, Alderete, Reinildo and others and we end up going down. In your opinion which is the best option?

I can't see Le Fee or Roefs going for as little as that it would take that much to replace one of them double it and Le Bris might give the go ahead.
Roefs is nowhere near as special as he is being made out to be on the back of 20 decent games at the start of his Premier League career. Looked to dominate his 6 yard box the first few months but now stuck on his line.
As for Diarra and Sadiki, neither has a goal in them. Could both go for me. Xhaka, Le Fee plus a box to box midfielder who can score goals I hope.

Keep seeing this being mentioned on here but who’s actually confirmed this?
Agree. Roefs is good but fuck me some of the valuations getting thrown about on here are insane
Same for Sadiki. 80 million figure being touted

Ghisolfi said it.
He also said, the offer and the player himself would be determining factors, but overall, we don't actually need to sell.
Whoever leaves will go for an undisclosed fee and so fans will put their own estimates in.Keep seeing this being mentioned on here but who’s actually confirmed this?

They’re hardly going to come out and say we need to though
We can’t keep spending what we spent without selling players

The clip of this.
Why not, it would be easier for Gisholfi to play down expectations that way. Use PSR like the richest club in the world constantly do. I think he's probably right in what he's saying tbh.
It's not like we overstretched last summer, but we made a big investment on pretty much a new team of players last summer. That just needs tweaking now, not another influx of 10/15.
Theres fringe players like Wilson, Adingra, Seelt, possibly even Mundle that could bring in around 30/40m. Add a first team player sale if the offer is too big to turn down, and then we're buying players just off the back of the money that's been made off outgoings.
We've spent relatively little the past few years, which has put us in the position we're in now. I don't think we're skint or are actively needing to sell tbh.
Sell them all. I'd rather have the cash in The bank tbh
The plan has always been to sell when it is right for both the club and the player. We should not stand in the way of players bettering themselves, and we will re-invest the proceeds of their sales wisely I am sure. Bids will have to meet our valuations, and I'm sure Monsieur G will have a target in sight for any position we need to strengthen.
Having said that, I don't see the need to sell anyone in this window, except some fringe players who need to move on. Maybe if Wilson scores against Brazil or the Jocks at the WC this summer, especially using electric pace or a worldy volley, he will go for good money... but it will still have to be his own choice.

We don't have to sell anyone. It would only happen if the player wants to go and it makes sense for us.
Look at the big money moves of players between Premier League clubs and it rarely happens after just one season. Brighton, Brentford and Bournemouth are often used as examples. They'll hold onto players for as long as they can.

Sadiki is very mobile, tenacious and technically sound. Unfortunately though, like you suggest, he falls to pieces around the box like a jigsaw.
I still think he's a good player for the level but overrated by some on here.
I reckon it'll be about 60-70m. SCR could allow more but then we are really eating into our budget from future seasons and that just doesn't seem sensible or necessary.
If we sell it could be more. I'm fairly sure we'll sell Adingra and Isidor for about 10-15m each. Adingra has done alright at Monaco so far and transfermrkt seems to think he is back to the value we paid for him (20m quid). Isidor will has managed five EPL goals in the limited minutes which very decent.
I only see one or two big sales at most. I don't think there will be quite the clamor we think there is/should be. We've not had loads of stand-out performances from the younger group which would catch the eye of the big clubs.
