With seemingly so many clubs desperate for his signature at only £30m, it's going to take a lot of tooing and froing with his personal terms, with each club offering different wages, length, bonuses etc., all trying to outdo each other. His representatives will be going over it all with a fine tooth comb to extract the best deal, and paring that with other considerations like who's more likely to play him (he's going to need to play if he wants to make the England squad), plus who's going to be in Europe (and who might be challenging for it) and who's likely to be looking at other honours, who's likely to be a basket case, fanbase, desirability of living in the area etc etc.
The presumably at our end we still have scope to negotiate sell-on clauses?
So my thinking, with all that to sort out and no need to rush with so many options likely on the table, his sale could go quite near to the end of the transfer window, well after the season's started. Whilst we'd obviously prefer to get a new striker bedded in, Delap will surely still play if he's still here? Unless we decide to protect him in case of injury? |  |

Did I imagine it or wasn't there something about this clause only coming in during Delap's second year. If so wouldn't that mean that we could sell at whatever price we wanted.
It all seems a bit strange to me that a player would be signed with a clause that restricts the club buying the player from selling for however much they could get. But not having a sell on clause.
I understand that City could buy Delap at £30 million and then sell him on at £50 million but with all these fair play charges against them would they be in the position to spend £30 on Delap knowing that a player like De Bruyne needs replacing ? | | | |

There are plenty of other threads you could've opened and read instead.
Besides, this thread is about whether he hangs around long enough to play a few Champ games, which I haven't seen speculated about on here. But then I doubt you even read beyond the title before excitedly hitting the downarrow and penning your riposte. | |

Define decent chance? 50%? 20%? |  |

I don't think there's any chance whatsoever. |  | | |

I'll take your avoidance of the point as a yes then. You just dived like a ...well, like a marauding Liam Delap. | |

I would assume man city like villa did with philogene, have first dibs and money off due to their sell on,so would be surprise if he went to anywhere else other than there. If it was say 20% and this value of 30m keeps getting bound around which I dont think is accurate as would
Mean they could get him for 26million. I think it might be 30 million for them as includes the money off from their sell on but 20% more for any other team. Either way would be stupid to manu as they have no pace throughout there team, need a massive overhaul and will most likely end up with a new manager in less than 10 games when things don’t go well. | | | |

You seem to be talking like this would all start when the ref blows his whistle after West Ham. He's representatives would have been talking for ages, absolutely no chance. |  | | |

Indeed.
I think it's highly likely that his departure will be announced on 1st June. | |
