McKenna wants Ahadme to go back to Burton… 20:28 - Jan 12 with 4875 views | Kieran_Knows | … but a deal can’t be agreed (financial reasons). Maamria also spoke about the possibility of re-signing Gassan Ahadme on loan from Ipswich. EFL rules do not permit a player appearing for three different clubs in one season, and Ahadme has already featured for both Burton and Ipswich. “Gassan did really well for us at the start of the season. Ipswich have signed even more forwards this window and he was already struggling to make the team. “I spoke to their manager last week. We were talking about a few players and Gassan came up in that conversation. He (the Ipswich manager) was keen for Gassan to come back to us, and I felt the same way, but we’re not in a position to pay what they asked for him. “As far as I’m concerned today, the deal is not going to happen because we cannot meet their financial expectations.” Taken from this article; https://www.burtonalbionfc.co.uk/news/2023/january/1201-victor/ |  |

Surely it's absolutely nailed on |  |

I presume when he says him and McKenna spoke about a few players, it was probably more them looking at ours, than us looking at someone from them? Interesting that Ahadme frees a spot up as well! |  |

Indeed. Burton hold all the cards, as they're the only possible customer! |  | |  |

I’m sure we’re trying to squeeze a bit more juice from Burton but it’s inevitable it’ll happen, it’s not like he can go anywhere else. |  |

We have Corrie Ndaba on loan there so possibly speaking about him. |  | |  |

Assume so. If he was asking about strikers, we've got some in the U21s that might be available, Morris, Chirewa etc. Can't see anyone in our squad other than Ahadme being available. |  | |  |

They do, but in the end it will suit everyone. Let’s keep abreast of the situation and brace ourselves to see what happens. |  |

He's going to sit on his contract for its entire length while playing on loans. |  | |  |

He's had some bad luck to be fair hasn't he. Even before the foot injury against Plymouth, didn't he have some fitness issues? I did say on another post that sometimes you have to be ruthless though, so would have to agree. I find it hard to criticise him because we haven't seen enough of him/he hasn't had enough chance to get into a rhythm. Ideal situation is that he hits a rich vein of form for Burton, takes some points off rivals and then at least gives us something to think about in the summer. |  |

Not entirely. Given their League position, Burton need all the help they can get. |  |

McKenna wants Ahadme to go back to Burton… on 09:11 - Jan 13 with 2368 views | DecageBruce | Well I think we should keep him and play him as the man up top. I just got us promoted at the first attempt on FM2023 and he scored 38 goals in the season with Harness (RW), Edwards (LIW) and Chaplin (SS). With all the research that now goes into the game then surely it would be the same IRL |  | |  |

Burton have got us by the balls, so to speak... know he can't go anywhere else so may as well drive the cost right down |  | |  |

Wigan are in for Adeboyejo - so would suit them to get Ahadme, scored for them earlier in the season, no fee just wages. We’ll probably have a fairly tough stance but as you say they know we want him to play and the only place that could happen is Burton so in the driving seat. Wonder how much we want him with regards to player space too!! |  |
