Now we've had the games in the prem. The new contract. Assists and goals
Surely he's gonna be one of the hottest prizes in the summer?
English left footed left back who scores. Assists and shown he can defend against some of the best in the game.. possibly our most expensive sale ever ( when it happens)
What a player he's turned out to be.
Got to be in that next England squad surely. |  |

Think Delap will be our most expensive sale, although City have probably got some buyback clause or significant sell on. But Leif is fantastic, had no doubts he'd be comfortable at this level. It's crucial we've protected our asset by tying him up. I'd love another season with him in the team but can't see it happening. |  | | |

Much as he deserves it , a call up would be bad for us.... sure to get his head turned mixing with the " gifted elite!" |  | | |

We want that call up sooner rather than later. I can't see him staying with us for much longer tbh so a call up would serve to increase his value even more than it's currently at. It's probably not want people want to hear or admit to but unless we have a massive upturn in future and end up lower end of midtable, I think he'll have his head turned regardless of a call up or not. |  | | |

I don't think he'll get in thr england squad.
I remember Brentford had that left back (who got injured) and I can't remember his name now, but he was really.good and never got a look in.
England would prefer to play one of their right backs at left back before.the other options. | | | |

£30-40m I would think, him and Delap I would think will go whatever league we are in. |  |

I can see Liverpool being after him - Robertson is slightly on the wane and has lost his place to Tsimikas. |  |

I'd be amazed if anyone paid £40m for him, but he is of course a terrific player, young-ish, left-sided, dynamic, bags of assists, head screwed on right, very decent from set pieces.
I don't think he's done enough in the Premier League yet to be in the £40m bracket, and he'll be 25 in less than 2 months, so although he's coming into his prime, he's not got as much upside as a 22 year old, say. I also think that his defending is not enough of a strength for him to be worth £40m.
If we could get anything approaching £30m I imagine the club 'wouldn't stand in his way', but we would all be rightly gutted if that happens. No guarantee of finding a replacement with his qualities who's willing to come to us.
Having said all that, I suppose in some ways yesterday's goal looked like £40m! A mirror image of Muhren to Van Basten! |  | | |

He is now a PL player. Last season I thought nothing less than 20-£30m.
In this league with what clubs play for players, £40m or more |  | | |

Ben Chilwell £50 million 20/21 season aged 23. Think thud is the Barometer, personally think Davis is better in terms of assists/goals and defensively improving all the time. | | | |

Much the same as Alfie Doughty last year at Luton, very surprised no one bought him in the summer. Hoping we won't sell Leif but England cap will only come with a move. | | | |
| How much is Davis worth btw on 07:05 - Nov 4 with 2774 views | PioneerBlue |
Looks like current consensus is that any bidding would need to start at £35m for a then seasoned PL player. We’d hope for upwards of £45m, but that might be a bit toppy if we’ve been relegated. If he gets an international call that would help nicely!
Lets hope we stay up, he gets his call up and this is academic. | |

I'm amazed people still keep trotting out these huge numbers. Realistically if we get relegated, I see him being gone for £20m.
If you extrapolate the season so far over the course of 38 games... clubs will have seen he has the attributes to be worth a go but ultimately he will have been part of a losing team all season. At the end of the day he's a left back and we won't be in a strong negotiating position. He may need 6-12 months bedding in and coaching based on how a lot of PL clubs operate now. Plus he isn't so young that there's likely to be exponential growth from him.
I'm just being realistic and managing my expectations. Others may dare to dream. | | | |

There’s no way we’d sell him for £20m. He’ll probably have an England cap by then and £20m is around the number Forest were told wouldn’t get him in January. | | | |
| Not as much as we think…. on 11:21 - Nov 4 with 2445 views | Bloots |
….if we flog him at the end of the season probably £18m to £20m plus addons.
If we sell him in January maybe a couple of mill more.
Hutchinson is the player we’ll get most for when we sell him. |  |

Of course we wouldn't sell him in January during a promotion push. Next summer will be a different beast especially if we are relegated.
Maybe he will still be here and probably unhappy then because there's no way a team pays north of £30m. | | | |

It'll come down to whatever release clause has been agreed in his new contract.
In this day & age it is unrealistic to think that the agent of a sought after player, on the cusp of international recognition, would allow him to sign a new contract with a club expected by many to be relegated, without having a 'reasonable' release fee inserted into the terms.
Unfortunately we are in a similar position with Delap when it comes to potential profit when selling; City had a significant 20% sell on fee included in the deal, so we'll lose one fifth of any profit we'd make, plus they also have a buy back clause, so they can do like Villa did with Philogene & match another offer, by paying less. | | | |

We’ll find out in 7 months or so. Per the above you think we’ll sell for £20m I think it’ll be more. | | | |

I'd say Delap. Either way, looks like there'll be a fire sale when we go down. Probably McK will jump ship too. |  |

Somewhere between £25-35m I expect, and would have thought we'll juice something out at the top end of that. If we went down it'd be £100m for him, Delap and Greaves which would fund a formidable tilt at returning even stronger if handled well. | |

If we go down it's going to be £20 mill or sub that, and we won't have too much of a choice in it if his head is turned by the right club.
If we stay up he's more a £30 mill problem for someone - ultimately he creates big chances which at this level has real, genuine value.
Defensively he needs to improve on winning his duels as a defensive player, particularly on the ground, but then in a better team you're seeing more of the ball in offensive areas and it probably suits him - like playing for Liverpool suits Trent | | | |

The buyback does not mean they pay less, or that we get less. They pay the same as the highest offer, and then get their 20% back. And they get that 20% whoever buys him. | | | |

Of course it does.
Do you think that Villa paid the full free for Philogene, and then later Hull gave them the sell on percentage in a separate transaction, as opposed to it being deducted from the amount to be paid by Villa?
Nobody said that we'll get less from the actual final amount to be paid; but it would be far prefereable to have Man City having to come in with a Man City premium offer if they want him, rather than just having to match a rival offer | | | |

....there's a buy back in place for Delap and we don't know where that is set.
City may well be able to buy him for £20m-£25m and then sell him straight away for more. | |

Delap 35 - 40 mill, more if he hits double figures which is likely.
Davis 30 mill
Both young and English which demands a premium. |  | | |

Oh yes I forgot about the buy back clause. I'd be interested to know how much that is. Probably some figure that means we lose out I am sure. | |
