Andy Horsman Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 If Andre Gray was worth £9M when he went to Burnley than Kodjia has to be worth a similar amount, at least. 20 goals in a side that struggled badly for the first half of the season, a full international with a highly rated country, and now an international goalscorer. £4M in the current market is an insult.

Negan Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 Should just slap an 11m price tag on his head. Nobody would come in for him for that much and if they do.... then well we've done amazing to make that much money on him. We don't want another Maynard situation, looking back now there won't be a single city fan who would say no to 6m for him.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He / the club doesn't need the money and he's said he wants promotion to the Premier League. Selling JK isn't an option unless it's stupid money.

LondonBristolian Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 The question with any player sale has to be "is it enough to replace the player with someone as good, if not better" and strengthen elsewhere in the team? I don't think £4 million is anywhere near that. Especially as we don't want to sell, I think we should be looking at £8 million upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashton1 Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 I guess we have to balance any reasonable approach with the players wishes in mind. I know he's contracted but if we had a £5/6m offer and the player was desperate to play in the prem on BIG wages, then the whole sitition needs to managed correctly. Clubs get promotion by spending and selling in the right way. I want him to stay and think he will, but look outside the bubble for a minute , we may be able to invest the money on 3 or 4 £2m players that will push us on. Just a view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a view I agree we need to be reasonable but a) in the current market, I don't think £5 - £6 million is an appropriate amount to accept for someone who scored the number of goals Kodjia did and has the potential he has. When you at what McCormack and Andre Gray went for, I think it would be way too low. b) If the wants to play in the Premier League then fair enough IF a premier league club come in for him. Derby are not a premier league club and are something like fourth favourites next season. There's no guarantee at all they will go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivorguy Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 If, a huge if, it will be for more money and to a Premiership club.

cityexile Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 I think to some extent it will come down to what he wants. Even 4-5m is a fair old bid for Derby. For a premiership side, or even one of those coming down, offering a substantial increase on his wages must have some pull. It is also just possible he has some trigger clauses in his contract. In a sense, the big budget teams are in an opposite position to us, unsettling a player with great wages, and then trying to be tight on the fee offered. To one of those teams, I think we might get 6-7m with some add ons - if Jimmy made it clear he wanted to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
