I dont understand the reasons for villas interest. I don't see it being beneficial other than financially for philogene so if he does go there then it could be a terrible move for him. Either way. Its still nice to miss out to a championsleague side rather than Portsmouth |  |

Which is why his agent has been doing what he has been doing [Post edited 10 Jul 2024 17:40]

£12m isn't bad price for a decent squad player for a Champions League side [Post edited 10 Jul 2024 17:40]

Yeah O'Rourke is legit, unfortunately. Although he did say this morning we were in "pole position" so Philogene's agent could still be dicking about trying to squeeze more money out of us. |  |

Its NOT £12m. I know you are trying to account for them discounting the 30% sell on, but thats false accounting. Assuming the price we agreed was £16m, and that Hull paid Villa £5m last year. That's an uplift in 'value' of £11m. 30% of £11m is £3.3m So, Villa pay Hull a £12.7m net transfer fee in 'cash'. However, if JP had signed for Ipswich, Villa would have made £3.3m by doing nothing. So, although they 'pay' £12.7m, the actual 'cost' is still £16m (including opportunity cost). |  |

Not saying he doesn't go there but it's just their spin on it. Article even ends with 'could lure' .... could. |  | |  |

Is that a new development, or the terms that were agreed last summer as part of the buy-back provisions? If we've offered better terms than were agreed between him and Villa last year, then the previously-agreed terms may as well be ripped up and thrown in the bin. |  |

Yes, it's champions league squad player v premier league 1st team player Villa are probably favourites, but it would be weird having left Villa for first team football opportunities to go back there 12 month later. We've done all we can. |  | |  |

Weird maybe, but wages are a big factor. Villa will most likely offer bigger wages than us, which will probably seal it |  | |  |

Tell him to sign in the next hour or we are withdrawing. If he wants to play Carabao Cup for Villa so be it. |  |

Or the terms villa offered last year are greater than the terms we've offered now? |  |

Well if he were to prioritise wages over playing & developing his skills as a footballer under our top manager renowned for improving players ... |  |

Not sure we have, have we? Just simply Villa have matched our bid and his personal terms were agreed last summer when they sold him. Simply down to the player now and what he feels is best for his development. That’s how I’ve read the situation today anyway. [Post edited 10 Jul 2024 18:08]

I think the writing was on the wall once Villa matched the offer. |  |
