What's new

Renato Veiga

So would I, but I think the only reason he's not going to be is down to his high wages. £200k p/w, so over 10m a year. A lot to pay for a back up option...

Possibly, though Maresca made it plain Chilly didn't fit into his inverting strategy. Regardless, a perfectly good back up even if not what he was thanks to his injury.

 
Atletico have made 2 offers for Veiga so far. 26mill and 30mill, including add ons. We are asking for 35mill including add ons.

So it is very close now, he looks to be the next one out the door.

But but... I like him!

 
We have to get used to lots of players that a lot of fans like leaving the club.

The strategy the club has under the ownership looks to be bearing fruit with the transfer of Petrovic, Madueke and now Veiga for good profit.

The issue is for each of the above there are another 2 at the club where we won’t be making any money and in some cases losing big money.

But great money so far for 3 players who aren’t in my starting 11

 
Quick poll:

Would you rather have Renato Veiga or Benoît Badiashile as the backup left centre back to Colwill next season?

(I'm not sure there is even space for one of them if Geuhi rumours are true, but surely not both)

Phenomenal business on our end. Bought him last year for 14m, loaned him out for 4m and selling him for 40m all within a year. 30m profit is unbelievable!

veiga over baddy all day

 
Problem is Veiga had no intentions to stay. I want a player that wants to stay so it is pretty simple choice from the two.

Badiashile is our type defender. His problem is he's never been able to hold onto his place. I think he just needs a good long stretch of games. He has an eye for the line piercing pass which is crucial to our football but he's been suspect at defensive actions.

That 40m is in Euros and includes add-ons, so we won't bank nearly as much as that.

It could be a good sale if we get around £20m profit, as it would cancel any loss we have to cop on Felix and that is extra important thanks to our UEFA penalty.

I agree, keeping him here as back up, against his will, for another 12 months will probably only diminish his sale price

 
Always been a fan of his so it's a shame to see him go as he has developed immensely in such a short period of time, looks extremely comfortable for Portugal at CB, but ultimately seems he wanted to leave so best to let him go.

And we've got another twelve in the back of the lock up, young Terry

Despite agreeing terms with Veiga Atletico have pulled out of the move. They have agreed a deal with feyenoord for defender David Hencko at 30mill euros, which is around the same best offer they made to us for Veiga, with us seeking a total package of 40mill euros. Hencko, like Veiga, is mainly a CB who can play left back.

Things like this is why I take the media announcing that "we expect to make 200mill plus in sales" and "Nkunku, Sterling, Felix and Veiga are all certain to leave" with a large pinch of salt.

With clubs aware of Uefa charging us with FFP breaches, and the FA still investigating us on PSR, they will be even cheaper with us.

30M would have been a no brainer for a years flip and funds the Hato deal. I assumed these high values we keep publicly placing on players was just to drive up the value and we'd end up accepting less, looks like the clowns genuinely believe they're worth that. I'll wait patiently for the 100M Jackson bid...

Other clubs on the continent seem to be fine to choose a high valuation and stick to it. Look at the eye watering fee Liverpool just paid to Frankfurt. Look what we forked out for Fernandez. Look what we had to pay for Lukaku. There are countless examples.

The issue is that European clubs always try and rinse English clubs for top dollar when selling, whilst paying bargain basement fees when buying. I for one will be happy if clearlake play hardball and demand top dollar. We should not be pushovers.

In an alternative universe where we've accepted £30m your message would be "these clowns put a stupid valuation on a player and got schooled again"

We could play hardball if these were prized players and we weren't under pressure to sell.

Enzo we can play hardball with, because he plays every week and is our vice captain.

Veiga we can't afford to as he's a fringe player. Everyone knows we've replaced Jackson so won't offer top dollar.

Why would anyone moan about doubling their money in a year? You're getting upset about made up scenarios again.
