Sindre Walle Egeli 22:59 - Aug 16 with 2956 views | Blooos | £17m - wow! Seems a high risk high reward type deal. Looks a talent but in that sort of league imagine you can never be 100% sure. Seems a very steep fee though. |  | | |  |
Sindre Walle Egeli on 23:01 - Aug 16 with 2895 views | berkstractorboy | PSV want him and Liverpool reported to have looked at him earlier this year. Must have something about him |  | |  |
Sindre Walle Egeli on 23:04 - Aug 16 with 2830 views | Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | You pay for potential as well sometimes, with the age and league he is paying in, it means actually getting him is a possibility. The fact that PSV were in Denmark this summer should tell you that he has been identified as a serious talent. Deals like the Nathan Broadhead deal make the the risk feels less in our current financial state. The main concern is someone swoops in like we did with Akpom, hopefully the fee and the relative uncertainty about him playing at a top level in the major European leagues put other clubs off. I am sure a few are watching closely. [Post edited 16 Aug 23:07]

PSV are out of ‘the race’ apparently. |  |

Yeah read that I guess we can outbid that with our sales. Guess the key measure is if he is keen to come here and not sure I have seen anything say he is open to the move? |  | |  |

Would’ve thought we would have been given some indication by his agent before entering into negotiations. Although guess you could say the same about Hackney. |  | |  |

The fact it happens on the exact same day Omari is inked gives me a lot more hope to be honest. Must have been a lot behind the scenes you'd think. |  |

Sindre Walle Egeli on 23:12 - Aug 16 with 2630 views | davblue | We do seem to like to spend headline money since we’ve got promoted. We need to get better at finding players for 8 million and below to really maximise player trading. Easier said than done of course but longer term, we aren’t going to be in the position where we are able to spend on big fees the longer we are in this league. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

We have not spent much this off season for a parachute club yet. [Post edited 16 Aug 23:15]

Sindre Walle Egeli on 23:15 - Aug 16 with 2567 views | CityBlue | The current trend in new play acquisition is minimum 75% paid up front and a number of large clubs simply don’t have that available capital - hence PSV interest didn’t meet the cover sheet requirements. This Norwegian club will really be in a good place with a significant cash injection (from a large player sale) |  |

Agree. £17m on someone who has scored 10 goals in 40 games in a pub league feels very risk on. Hope he's the next Haaland. |  |

No but loans won’t be free either. People might argue that we have to spend those fees to get players in. |  | |  |

There is probably a little more to it than that. |  |

Danish club. Like to see this done, even at that price. Seems a prospect and just what we need now Hutch and Broadhead of gone. [Post edited 16 Aug 23:21]

PSVs approach is conscious and deliberate. They've had a record year commercially, champions and obviously in the champions league with a massive profit on transfers. They do have the dry powder but just aren't run to spend big money on unproven talent. |  |

We've lost a combined £57m in the last 2 Financial years. You'd expect us to bank some profit. Hence why I'm calling this a risk. |  |

Always a risk for a club our size spending anything over 10M this is the season to do it though. |  |

Sindre Walle Egeli on 23:33 - Aug 16 with 2124 views | ITFCson | I seem to be in the minority but I see this is low risk. Obviously has a very good pedigree, he’d not having international recognition if he didn’t. Given his age he doesn’t even need to be a huge success to at least get money back. But the upside is he scores a lot of goals and moves on for a very nice profit. |  | |  |

I know, it's still low though thus far with out sales and the relegation cash. This isn't the season to get conservative. |  |

How is the Danish top flight a pub league!!? It's a very decent level pretty similar to the champ - certainly the big boys in that league. Very good players have come out of that league. |  |

Sindre Walle Egeli on 23:48 - Aug 16 with 1905 views | Marshalls_Mullet | I'm not gonna get excited, until he signs. 1. I have never heard of him. 2. I would love this kind of old school signing to happen, largely because of Point 1. 3. This has 'Batistuta' vibes all over it. |  |

No but spending money doesn’t guarantee success on purchasing a player. We all just want the right players that suit us no matter the cost. Still stand by my point of buying cheaper because the next sale if they do well should be more Profitable. A big fee for this lad, unless we get to the prem and he does well there our profit won’t be huge as a player who hasn’t played in the prem. |  | |  |

I am not saying it does but there are non parachute clubs regularly chucking around 8 figures fees now. We just sold Delap, Broadhead and Hutchinson and are newly relegated, if we have done our homework, we have to think big. The strategy seems more sound this off season IMO with widening the net. |  |

It says a lot that £17m is considered "low risk" for us now! 😂 |  |

A 19 year old with a potentially very high ceiling are just the risks we need to be taking. |  | |  |
