To be honest, I would not be surprised to hear over the next 48 hours that Rak-Sakyi is recalled by Crystal Palace from Charlton on loan. He has been on fire there, and he could be the deal maker for Semenyo. I,e send him on loan to us for the second half of the season. Would give him Championship experience and enable us to have forward cover, and would probably be a worthwhile deal to help get Semenyo over the line. Is he a similar player to Semenyo?

As per a previous post, Norway running a summer fixture calendar (and contracts the same) might’ve influenced timings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot would surely depend on the add-ons. £10 million would not be a great offer. A hypothetical £10 million, 15% sell on and £3 million in potential add-ons would be a very different bid.

That is the question I’m not being funny here but I’m getting sick to the back teeth of the Ghana media sites. They’ve not been right about one thing in relation to Semenyo thus far, and unlike with the Norway break in respect of Hakin yesterday, they have no way of being ITK geographically or link wise - Semenyos based in the UK, his agent is based in the UK and all buying clubs linked are based in the UK. They’ve got as many “ins” as Roy De Alien. If and when he goes, I’d bet my house it won’t be broken by a Ghanaian media source. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Dante Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 In related news, being reported (Alex Crook) that Obafemi is having medical at Burnley, loan with £4m obligation to buy. Reduces the field undoubtedly as they made a further striker signing yesterday so assume out of the equation for AS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or more accurately are PL clubs now looking overseas more often or indeed for PL players who may have run their course as they don't deem Championship sides as valuable as they might have been. Looking to use the obvious financial gaps to leverage players our as cheaply as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that how it would work? Would we accept a bid from one club and then quote An extra few million to another? I can see they might offer a higher salary than another club but the deal to the club would be similar wouldnt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, were he to go to Bournemouth, he would not only increase his salary, but would have a former teammate and friend in Lloyd Kelly. And, of course, having found what he was looking for, and with a friend to call his own, he would never be alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
