Summer Transfer Gossip.

[AnOldBrownie]

Why is Sess worth 30 million?

Seriously...I know it was thought he was definitely starter premier league quality...but he's not.   He won't start on the Spurs A team...well, unless he get's minutes as a left back.

He's 19 with over 100 senior games and 30 odd games in the Prem when most players his age are lucky to get 10 minutes in the Prem when their team is 5-0 up (Foden).

Plus, he could find a home as a LWB given Pochettino rotates between a 3 and 4 at the back. Same reason I think Inter are in for him as per reports today given Conte's come in there and we all know the system he favours.

And, how much is anyone worth? What the club they're at values him at. Same reason Wan-Bissaka's worth 55m, Harry Maguire's supposedly worth 80m and Real Madrid are practically trying to give James Rodriguez away to Napoli.

Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire just had good seasons in the premier league.

I wouldn't even say Sess had a good season.   I'd say his season was below average with limited minutes on a squad that started Vietto and Schurrle over him.    And Joe Bryan or MLM over him at LB.

Again, why is he worth $30 million right now?    You stated why he's of value.

Again, he's worth that much because that's the value we've attached to him. Spurs are supposedly "only" willing to pay 25m, so he's at least worth that. Whether or not he lives up the price tag is another thing entirely, but from a Fulham perspective as long as the money isn't counterfeit then it's happy days.

According to this it's 45 million...

But...of course...in the same article they say...

Inter Milan and Liverpool have also been named as potential suitors for Sessegnon, but Palace are understood to have been the only ones to contact Fulham.

Yet....

Spurs, notoriously rigid negotiators, value him at closer to £25m given the contract situation.

They value him at 25 million but haven't actually contacted Fulham...   this late in the transfer window?

Firstly, you're assuming that the no Spurs contact thing is true. And even if it is true, despite what some on here would have you believe- we're still in the very early stages of the transfer window. Prem teams aren't back for Pre-Season for another 10 days or so (and Sessegnon's at the U21 Euros).

Secondly, we value someone at 45m knowing nobody will pay it- Spurs value him at 25m, some negotiation later it'll probably work out as about 30m (or maybe less with someone like a Foyth or Nkoudou on loan). We aren't going to go straight in at 30m, because it'll be negotiated down.

Thirdly, imagine believing LoveSportRadio.

No...I don't believe the article at all...that's why I referenced what I did.


I'm saying I don't believe most English media during transfer seasons.    Cahill and Drinkwater to Fulham the most recent wind up my ars from english media.

Someone may very well feel Sess is worth 30 million.    That Mitro is definitely leaving because "he's too good for the championship".


What we ABSOLUTELY know...without any assumption...is that if Tony Khan doesn't give the ok then Fulham Football Club is under no obligation to let either play for any team not named Fulham Football Club next season.

Regardless of all the speculation and he said she said printed by the English press.

I can see him going to Liverpool or someone has a squad player rather than us but I'd be over the moon if he did!!!!

The thought of the havoc Babel and Mitro would cause in the Championship would be a great prospect. Highly unlikely though I imagine.

Probably just changing his Hair colour, or maybe going back to Ajax now they selling half their squad

Players report back for training tomorrow, although there'll be a few missing as 5 are at the ANC and the ones on international duty will report back late.

8th July for me is the key date, when FFC fly out for the training camp. In previous years Jokanovic has had to take predominately kids as the senior quad was so thin.

[Mince n Tatties]

Since there is no news of us,looks like one of our ex's
is on the move,Smudger Smith to Millwall.

[Woolly Mammoth]

Anyone having a medical ?

Yes I am having a medical shortly to renew my Heavy Goods Licence.

Did you pass?
The reason I ask is because that's another week gone and not even a decent rumour.😡
I'm off on the gin now.

[MrFFC]

Adomah available on a free transfer surely he would be a good signing at this level?

I agree, but somehow can't see it happening!

If we fly out for our pre season with a fringe squad ... AGAIN... ugh! It's just never ending mistakes..
