Just seen Kings of Anglia reporting that Leeds are interested in Omari
Definitely think he's one of a few players to come out of this season without hurting his reputation and could see him getting a move back to the EPL. We know he's very ambitious too
Anyone but Leeds though! |  | | |  |

I heard a rumour that Omari has the exact same relegation release clause as Delap. Not sure how true it is, but I can certainly see Premier league teams sniffing around him |  |

Isn't Jack Harrison going back to Leeds from Everton after his loan ends? What with him and the other rumours about Jack Clarke, and now Omari, Leeds will have a lot of 'wingers' |  | | |

Looks like I have to PHONE up to cancel which is pretty poor form for an international subscriber, means once I sort it I certainly won't be going back. |
Pretty sure you don't have to phone. Email/web form. |  |

Would be very surprised if anyone was prepared to pay £30m for Omari! |  | | |

Rutter's market was 40M (last summer) Omari not worth 30M now? |  | | |

Is it that wild?
More goals and assists than Tyler Dibling this season! Albeit a couple of years older | | | |

Wouldn't have thought so. I don't think he's done enough to attract Premier League interest. Other than Delap, O'Shea, Cajuste and Tuanzebe, I'm not sure anyone has. | | | |

Interesting, I think I slightly disagree on Omari.
To me he has shown real glimpses at PL level, a few well taken goals/assists and some really good hold up play in games Like Spurs away. Put that on the back of playing for a struggling team, a few injuries and the way he finished the Championship season last year combined with his age and I would have thought he'd have a few suitors in the mold of a Palace, Brentford type but I could be wrong!
Actually injuries might be a little bit of concern for him. | | | |

Anyone gets near £30m I’m snapping their hands off - although given the way the domestic UK market generally is, especially with young English talents, wouldn’t surprise me if someone does.
Talented boy but has struggled at times this season - actually think another season in the Championship would benefit more at the moment. |  | | |

Maybe, I suppose it's what other teams have seen in him that they could put into their sides. I'm not sure he's had the sort of season where he's proved himself in the Premier League in the same manner as Delap. | | | |

My thoughts as well - love the guy, but given his contribution this season, I feel you’d mostly be paying for potential. I was underwhelmed to be honest - he definitely has a really high ceiling, but thought he’d return more goals/assists than he has. I’m less worried about someone coming in for him for that reason. |  | | |

Seen a few people now say they think O’Shea will have Prem interest…. Are his stats that good from this season, as he hasn’t looked like a standout to me? Decent age I guess, but two successive relegations isn’t a great look on a CV for a CB. Maybe I’m being harsh, but I doubt he’ll have a queue lining up for him. |  | | |

I paid for the EADT subscription last couple of years. Watson is ok, even if he does put me to sleep sometimes but I find the rest of it rather average tbh, their podcast is pretty unlistenable as well. |
But what about all the 'snappy snaps' & the stories of 'getting the pre-match scram into the belly'? That kind of mature content is priceless surely. | | | |

Very loose statement.
£30m spent for Man Utd would be very different than £30m spent for Sheffield Utd. | | | |

Leeds worry me a bit. If we're going to lose players, the most likely destination will be to a newly promoted club (excluding Delap obviously), and Leeds could well be attractive to the likes of Hutchinson, O'Shea, Davis etc. They're a big club with a better chance of survival than the others IMO. |  | | |

That doesn't change the number ultimately, I'd expect us to be wanting £40 million+ | |

If the figures the Guardian had for their losses over the past two seasons are accurate (£94.5m), then they're going to have post a profit next season of something like £30m, so I'm not sure they'll be in a position to spend that freely. Certainly not so freely that they'd want to spend £30m on a pickup as risky as Hutchinson.
Delap's release clause was double his initial fee and similar clauses would make Hutchinson and O'Shea prohibitively expensive. So unless those players got even more favourable clauses than Delap, it'd be a case of us being willing to sell or the player stamping their feet to get their way.
Of the three mentioned - Hutchinson's shown enough at a young enough age that he's probably out of reach for promoted clubs. We weren't seriously in the running for Wilson Odobert and couldn't have signed Crysencio Summerville last Summer. Same category of player.
It's generally older players that tend to flip from relegated teams to promoted teams (the three we got were 25, 25 and 27). O'Shea and Davis fit that, but whilst I'm not as down on Davis' defensive work this season as some, I still think any team likely to spend a lot of time on the back foot would be cautious about signing him. O'Shea I think we'll be loath to part with. Burnley were overstocked in that position and therefore didn't mind doing that business, I think we'll be far keener to hold on to him.
Worth noting as well that the other two promoted clubs signed one player from a relegated club - Charlie Taylor on a free to Southampton. O'Shea, Ogbene and Muric were the only other to make that return journey. Leeds' recruitment network is going to be more similar to Leicester and Southampton, so they've probably got other, more global, fish to fry. [Post edited 1 May 6:59]

Good post, and your reasoning makes me feel a bit more reassured. Hadn't actually realised that so few relegated players had been 'recycled' back to promoted teams last year.
To be honest, it's O'Shea I'm most worried about losing (obviously resigned to Delap going). He's a Premier League defender through and through and even mid-table teams would be mad not to at least consider him. As you say though, hopefully we're well protected there. | | | |

The figure I've had in my head that would force us to sell would be £35m, and I don't see anyone doing that. I can see offers between 25-30, though. | |

I'm grimly fascinated by how this exact scenario could play out this summer. Do we really have the power to 'make' Omari stay if he wants out? It never tends to end well that does it. |  | | |
