HappyClapper Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 The Mirror are reporting that Lloyd Kelly is a target for Newcastle in January. I’m assuming we have a sell on clause, so would be worth a few million if true. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFCGav Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 This plus maybe 1 sale (though I'm not sure who...) would allow Nige to get one or two more faces in. Considering his current acquisitions are Atkinson, Simpson, Tanner, James and King that's good news (I realise Simpson is contentious but if nothing more than a mentor for Tanner he'll have use). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hinsleburg Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Having watched Kelly earlier for Bournemouth this season he easily looks like he could make the step up. Was delighted when we got what we did for him, in hindsight I wish we held out for more! (Appreciate at the time though it seemed a good deal all round for all parties!)

Bar BS3 Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Odd that Transfer market have his current value listed as £9m - I know that's far from accurate, but as a guide..! Having sold him for £13m+ it would take a huge transfer fee to net us anything like "millions" IF (&that's a big IF, based on the size of the initial fee) we had a 20% sell on clause, then it's going to take a fee of £25m+ to net us that kind of windfall. Possible, of course, especially at his young age, but for a player who's, unproven at Premier league level, and the possibility that the sell on clause may be 10% rather than 20%, I don't think we should get too excited at the hope of this bolstering our transfer budget my any significant amount - all helps though, of course. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay. He had bad injuries in their Premier league season and with the covid factor, people ain't worth what they would be usually. But I'd agree, that does seem a tad low in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @Coxy27 says above, I think Newcastle would be the most beneficial suitors for us. Their new owners will be bucking the trend & splashing cash around over the next few windows. To appease their fans if nothing else. Whether a championship CB will be the statement they want to make, may be questionable. If they are as wealthy as is being touted, then they may be happier paying more for a bigger name. Eddie Howe obviously knows him though, so that may be irrelivent. 3 minutes ago, Curr Avon said: Because there's a good chance that Newcastle will be relegated?

wendyredredrobin Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Normally 20% of the profit, so if we sold him for £13m and he is sold for £23m we net £2m as I understand it, but even though the Magpies may have cash to splash, I can't see them paying that much for a Championship defender. However even a £5m mark up would net us £1m which we can put towards buying the No. 9 we so desperately need. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle will be great for everyone. Absolute cash cow to milk. Have a player is worth £10 million?? charge Newcastle £15 million if they get in touch. Get a huge mark up if they come calling as everyone knows they have the money. Championship players will want to go there. Premier league players I'm not so sure because its a relegation battle from the off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Any potential windfall will be a percentage (20%?) of the profit Bournemouth make on what they paid us (£13m) for him, so it might not net us a huge sum in the current market. I'd like to know if Kelly's sell-on applies to all future sales as is increasingly the case. That could be worth serious cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 FWIW I have Kelly down at £15m plus £6m of add-ons plus a sell-on, from a very credible source. On the basis of a 20% sell-on: £20m - nets us £1m £25m - £2m £30m - £3m etc. All very useful, but not earth-shattering in the context of our losses. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 He's not the sort of player they need right now. Much better suited going for experienced Premiership types and paying them shedloads. Dunk, Webster, Mings, Tarkowski, Coady, Mee, Bednarek. 1 of those plus maybe a Kelly type. They also need a midfielder of the ilk of Ward-Prowse. Get 2 leaders in now as well as 2 or 3 proven players where needed. Best off raiding their immediate rivals as they need to first overtake the likes of Southampton, Leeds and Palace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to know if Kelly's sell-on applies to all future sales as is increasingly the case. That could be worth serious cash. Yes, it is, but it becomes diminishing returns, and only continues as long as the player is sold for a profit. An example: Kelly sold £15m with 20% sell on to Bournemouth Bournemouth sell him to Newcastle for £25m (£10m profit / 20% - City get £2m) with a 10% sell on Newcastle sell him to Liverpool for £50m (£25m profit / 10% - Bournemouth get £2.5m, but City get 20% of that, so £0.5m) no sell on A. Liverpool sell him to AC Milan for £75m (the chain has stopped because Newcastle has no sell on agreed). B. Liverpool sell him to Aston Villa for £35m (the chain would stop regardless of whether Newcastle had agreed a sell on or not, because there is no profit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeRed Posted December 8, 2021 Report Share Posted December 8, 2021 Everyone assuming any windfall from the sale of Kelly goes straight to NP for new players? We are about to post record losses so won't the playing budgets remain as is and this unexpected windfall (if it happens) will just go towards offsetting some of the losses? That would be my guess 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
