Martí Cifuentes

[CARLOS CLASS]

By Alan Nixon
Sunderland will have to pay a hefty compensation fee for QPR boss Marti Cifuentes.
The Black Cats have switched their managerial search around dramatically in the last few days with the Spaniard a favourite of leading figures at the club.
But Rangers will ask for a six figure fee for Cifuentes and Sunderland would have no option but to fork out.
Dutchman Pascal Jansen has strangely slipped out of the race after a meeting last week.
And Liam Rosenior also spoke with the seven man interview panel but is comfortable waiting on offers.
Sunderland seem to have many opinions within their ranks with one experienced official keen on St Mirren’s Stephen Robinson and Stockport rising star Dave Challinor.
The saga has also seen Bo Svensson go elsewhere and the elusive Will Still failed to commit either.
In the past Sunderland boobed badly with Michael Beale while the appointment of Tony Mowbray was down to their chief scout knowing him from Blackburn Rovers.
This chase has included input from adviser and Sky Sports pundit Dave Jones. Despite all of this expertise they are yet to get their man.



6 figures is nowt if they’re serious about him.

Could be apparent we’ve dropped Jansen for him if we end up paying compo for him because you’d think we wouldn’t pursue him if he wasn’t interested and we weren’t happy with the fee

Seven man interview panel, surely that isn’t true!!!!!!

Just for the sake of argument, because it’s Nixon and will be more made up nonsense.

 

[Kenna]

Beale's ex assistant. Beale taught him everything he knows. And more.

Fuck off, surely not?

Fuck off, surely not?

He wasn't no

 

[PS]

Let me understand this - according to Nixon we are now going for Beale's ex assistant?

This is a very deep barrel...

 

[Kenna]

He wasn't no

Wouldn't put it past these chancers pulling something like this so it would have been easy to believe.

It's not easy to believe he signed from Sweden
He's down to 11/4

 

[PS]

I reckon it's a story you put out to make the actual appointment a relief.

In from 8/1 to 9/4 within half a hour on Will Hill

Cifuentes was similar to Röhl with how he turned QPR around, "six figure compensation" according to Nixon, that seems very affordable.

That said, everything in my gut tells me we will be appointing Rosenior, as long as he'll work with Dodds and Proctor.

I’d be ecstatic if this comes off, I hoped we’d try for him but never thought we’d pay to get him.
