These Hamer rumours 23:08 - Aug 12 with 11578 viewsThe_Romford_Blue

Got the wrong Sheffield United player.

No idea if we will get him but the word I’m getting is that we actually want their centre back - Anel Ahmedhodžić.

Absolutely no idea if we have bid or anything (doesn’t sound like we have) but just that the interest is him rather than Hamer.

Poll: Would you take a draw tonight if offered right now?

Because release clauses have to be paid all up front. No room to negotiate in instalments. So no way we’d drop £18m from this seasons budget. Suspect we may have to pay more, but get favourable terms spread over a period of time.


I see! I had no idea on that re. up front payments!

What was his release clause, £17m? Maybe we offer £20m? Amortised over four seasons is a drop in the ocean I guess for someone of his quality.

My source was pretty certain we had interest in AA so I knew that part was right. And indeed nobody had broke the story

The Hamer bit he’d heard nothing on so was me putting two and two together and assuming that the news reports had got the wrong Sheff U player.

Turns out we do want both. Which is good as hamer is quality.


Just hope re AA there isn't a breakdown in talks..

I couldn't resist Rommy..

Happened recently with United and Zirkzee. Had release clause of €40m, but paid €42m in the end so they could pay €14m for 3 years.

Only found that out last summer when Liverpool paid €70m upfront for Dominik Szoboszlai, as he had interest from other clubs and they didn’t want him to go elsewhere. Nothing Leipzig could do when they triggered that as well.

Poll: We’ve got super KM, he knows exactly what we need. Woolfie at the back…

Hudson will know AA well from his time at Sheff U.

Definitely both correct. Hats off re AA! Not quite sure how close either are. Think AA on list as it stands, suggestions Hamer may be closer but get the impression still a fair bit to do.


So we're actively moving for Hamer as it stands? I read from your story that we were just interested but hadn't actually started negotiations yet.

Would love Hamer. Think he's quality and has a bit of PL experience now. Exactly the type of player I'd hoped we'd sign this summer.

Is it close? He isn’t in their squad tonight so must be concrete interest at this point?

Real shame about hamer, been so much noise about it.

EADT saying Phillips is our number 1 target for that position

So young Rommers was nearly entirely right - we were indeed talking about the wrong blades bloke!

Phil will confirm I’ve a very strong source at/near the club.

I just sometimes have reason not to post stuff as it could cause issues within the club. Such as the McKenna to Palace situation in February last year. I smartly kept that quiet bar a few places and Phil later confirmed it was true but that I didn’t want it in public remain. I also told of the Delap story a few days before that was out.

This only applies in 'cash' terms. Even if the club paid up front, for accounting purposes they could still amortise the payment over the life of the player's contract and thus it would be still be spread over several years in terms of PSR accounting.

Really depends how much cash on hand the club have around, rather than making any difference to PSR headroom.

Ahmedhodzic is with the same agent as McKenna.... sheesh.

Are we literally just working our way through the little black books of CAA Stellar and CAA Base in the hope that something sticks?!
