Mechromancer 262 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Apparently there are some tax issue and stuff with release clauses in Spain so would be quite a bit more than 50m, maybe close to 60m and they don't negotiate at all ever.But only for spaniards clubs, right? Bayern didn't paid more in his day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 But only for spaniards clubs, right? Bayern didn't paid more in his day.I don't know but it is definitely more complicated than just paying the release clause. However we also paid the clause for Costa didn't we so maybe you are right. Either way 50m for Laporte is fine too if we are willing to pay similar amount for Stones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,944 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Everton are fucking idiots for turning that down. They could buy 3/4 nice players with that money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mak 4,459 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 The top comment in the Daily Mail article is bang on...Having Stones in the Everton defence won't make all that much difference to their league position. Having 40 million to spend on new players would. I think Everton are cutting their nose off here to spite their face.Also, Everton are basically valuing him as a 150k a week player, but probably pay him only 30-60k a week. How does that work then?

RhesusReus 219 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 On a scale from 1-10, how likely are Atheltic to sell if we triggered Laporte's release clause? I hadn't watched him in a while so I hopped on to the old YouTube and watched his highlight from this past season. Fuck, he's good.You dont seem to know how release clauses work.Athletic cant do jack. Its then up to the player to agree to personal terms.Laporte would probably agree to come.

Yeah, with Ander happened the same. Athletic doesn't sell his players if they don't want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iseah100 5,612 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 So, this guy isn't bothered at all by the fact he could make double per week what he's making now? Or play in the advanced stages of the Champions League instead of Europa? Train under Jose and JT, not Martinez and Jakigelka? Also, Everton just want to fuck with CFC, they're lucky to get an offer in excess of 35m, if United offered that they'd insisit he go for cheaper, yet they refuse the offer, why? Cause of their bitchy manager. Oh well, let Stones rot and a declining club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhesusReus 219 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Yeah, with Ander happened the same. Athletic doesn't sell his players if they don't want.No. No. No. If a player has a release clause, the club have no power to stop a transfer once the clause is triggered. Jesus. Basic stuff. Its up to the player to agree to the termd. Sll the club can do is to convince him not to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chels 2,502 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 On a scale from 1-10, how likely are Atheltic to sell if we triggered Laporte's release clause? I hadn't watched him in a while so I hopped on to the old YouTube and watched his highlight from this past season. Fuck, he's good.There's no chance Athletic agree to any deal so we'd have to activate his buyout clause which the Guardian say is £30m.If that's right then I believe the final price would be approximately £36-44m, depending on rate of tax (dealing with Athletic is a nightmare).His agent is apparently now Jorge Mendes, by the way.

How does that work then?Martinez is probably still pissed with all those late/controversial losses he's suffered at the Bridge, hence why he's doing this.

LAM09 7,062 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 It's either Stones or Garay by the look of things. We will definitely be adding another CB to our ranks before next Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely he'd have avoided the Stones headache if he rated hom highly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Fox_ 2,086 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 It'll be interesting to see what are we gonna do now. Not having any other player coming to us, until the transfer window closes, would be quite a bit discouraging. I do hope we have a plan b, the defender from monaco, that i can't spell correctly would be interesting, many on here are suggesting Laporte, that would be a dream, however a question comes to my mind: why didn't we go for him from the beginning if we were ready to offer 37m for Stones? Surely Laporte has more quality in him right now than Stones.It'll be also interesting to see what we are gonna do for the midfield, as things stand right now, i'm quite worried for our form. I hope the lads will wake up soon and will start performing like last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
