Not sure what this does for us in the summer when we sell him |  |

Isn't it the same as that guy from Hull and Aston Villa? The one we tried to buy in the summer. Expect most sales of youngsters contain these type pf clauses now. |  |

"And buy-back = pre-agreed release clause more often than not" any recent examples? I can't think of any |
Cameron Archer
Xavi Simons

City having that buy back if it’s set at a fixed fee is going to be attractive to them otherwise what’s the point in them having it?
It it’s a matching fee then fine, they have to match any fee offered then it’s different. Philogene albeit in the summer was only 18 million if I recall correctly, so it was attractive to Villa to bring him back.
Solanke went for 65 million in the summer and he’s played in the prem for 4 or 5 years with one good scoring season, so I think the 35-40 million range for City to buy him back is probably not out of the realms of being realistic. If another club come in for him, then it might well be up at 50 or so million that they would have to go to. |
Ruiter went to Brighton for 40 million did nothing for leeds in the Premiership not a lot of goals in the championship.
If and if Delap gets 15 plus goals his value will triple, but let's worry in the summer . |  | | |

We could well give him a better extended contract in the summer so when he eventually does leave we will get a bigger fee the days of Evans selling players for a tenner are over we have shrewd operators here now. | | | |

The multiple depends what price the buyout clause is set at!! |
The buy back clause will be 3 times the original fee and will expire after a couple of years I reckon. Obviously every deal differs but think that’s how it typically works.
Think he’ll end up at Spurs personally. | | | |

If city have a fixed fee and they want to activate it, it won’t matter what we want fee wise. |  | | |

Exactly, Solanke is now 27 with one good goalscoring season at the point of sale. Delap is 22, if he meets similar numbers in his first season he is vastly more valuable.The buyback could be more about preventing him going elsewhere, as it tended to be in the past, .There were two clubs in this negotiation. |
City will have the fee already agreed when they sold him. | | | |

City have a buy back clause, another club being interested doesnt change the fee they would pay. It will be a fixed price within the sales contract. |
Yeah. If another club come in for him we would be able to charge them more. | | | |

Plus all this stuff has to be contingent on what Delap himself wants to do. He might see a different club as a better option to City. |  | | |

I think he was saying the buy back clause is likely to be set at £35-40m. |
Lot of assumptions here that we'd be daft enough to agree a deal with a buy back for less than double what we paid, which I don't believe for one second Aston would do.
Also a huge assumption that Delap would want to go and play reserve and league cup games. [Post edited 12 Nov 2024 7:49]

Ask yourself why would we want to sell him?
Only answer I can see is because of relegation. Not going to happen. End of story |  |

Ashton is no mug no way would we buy a player we can't get hi full potential money wise I'm sure City would have to match whatever is the highest bid whoever that come from. Yes of course they have a sell on clause ut no way if McKenna saw a player in the future who could be worth a fortune to come here not to treble their money..whilst Haaland is at City I don't believe City will be to interested a lot of clubs will and a bidding war nay develop but let's stay up and make him our new Paul Mariner a real striker . | | | |

The other thing is, why would they want him back at this point? Backup to Haaland and maybe to have as an English squad player.
I can't see it happening. |  |

When the top 6 come knocking and it is when not if, it’ll be incredibly difficult to ward them off and absolutely impossible if Citeh trigger the buyback clause. |  |

You’re HUGELY underestimating the market when it comes to premier league goal scorers. Add the fact he’s a striker, young and English and it’s 60m |
‘If’ we stayed up I’d agree… but if we go down we aren’t getting £60m… |  |

Would imagine (but don't know) that it is matching rights, which is often confused with straight buyback. | |

No one said we would agree a buy back for less than double what we paid. We paid £15m.
Buy backs are generally 2 - 2.5 times the original fee.
Depends on bargaining power. |  |

You're really not understanding the difference between a matching clause and a buy back clause. | |

No one is suggesting they want him back now.
Whether he would get in their squad is largely irrelevant. If he was worth £60m for example, and the buy back was set at £40m..... there is an easy £20m for City to make by buying him back and selling him on. | |

We wouldn't be able to charge City more.
A buy buy clause has a pre agreed, set fee in it. The market value is then totally irrelevant. | |

‘If’ we stayed up I’d agree… but if we go down we aren’t getting £60m… |
Why? If he carries on doing what he’s doing, the world and his misses will be after him. Strikers like that are like gold dust. There would hardly be a race to the bottom of the transfer fee scale just because we are back in the Championship
Whether he wants to move on is another matter and one for him. One thing for sure is that at his age, like Omari he needs to be playing, so I really cannot see him returning to Man City to shine his rear end on the bench.
Who knows, any more than we know the terms of his contract. What I do know is that I saw him in pre-season and thought he looked very ordinary. Er no. He’s an absolute monster of a player who is improving all the time. [Post edited 12 Nov 2024 8:58]

….hasn't been mentioned by anyone other than Ipswich fans.
It was reported as a buy back at the time.
Wishful thinking I fear. |  |

Maybe I'm naïve but would a team like City really do that?
If we're being honest, City are probably looking at a higher level than Delap and I doubt they'd buy him back after 1 year anyway. | | | |

Leicester and Saints sold players for £50m or thereabouts after getting relegated - Harvey Barnes, Romeo Lavia etc |  |
