    It's not a bad deal for Atlanta. £15m is almost 20m euro for 6 months. The striker is valued at £30m of transfermarkt. If we don't buy then they can sell him again in summer for £25m and make £40m off him or keep him. 

     

    The big issue is how much do they need him and they are playing for CL football and have no obvious replacement so in this specific example it wouldn't work. There are better targets like the one below.

     

    On the other hand, Vlahovic would work. Fiorentina know he won't be signing and want to sell now for more money. Would cost 80m euro and if we offered 20m euro for 6 month loan and 60m if we stay up (option to buy, not obligation but we would take the option if he got us goals) I think they'd agree cos if they sell they get 80m, if they don't (because we didn't take up the option) they will get 60m in summer from another club, either way they get the full price.

     

    Problem is Vlahovic isn't keen, so fee isn't the issue, player is. We really are struggling to get both player + fee to agree >.<. 

     

    Sorry mid read your post and thought you meant with the £5m loan fee that we apparently offered, £15m loan fee is defo more reasonable from their point of view im sure. But yeah thats the thing, I just cant see them letting him go like that on loan mid season.. Vlahovic has been my dream signing from all the players we've been linked with but like you say hes not keen especially with Arsenal after him to. 

     

    Also a £15m loan fee might seem a little excessive when we will probably start Wilson over him when hes fit again? And where does Wood fit into this.. maybe Howe does want to play with 2 strikers after all

    I think its the best way to use our loans but increase the loan fee e.g. 15m and the transfer fee to 35m (minus 15m from loan fee if we buy) and they might do business (also change obligation to option to buy because of high loan fee) - note I feel there are better strikers than Zapata but he's still not a bad option.

     

    I want us to do something like that for any 40-50m player we target. There's a good chance they flop so high loan fee + higher transfer fee + option to buy works well. 

     

    Also I'm not sure why we are not targeting the free transfers in the summer e.g. Zakaria, Kamara etc

     

    I know Ginter and Sule don't want to come according to reports.

     

    And can we please stop agreeing personal terms before the transfer fee! As long as the agent says yh and we want around x, we know if we can afford so go straight to negotiating the fee. Unless they want stupid money like Dumbele, we should be ok.

     

    Defo agree from our point of view its a good deal especially with an option on future fee depending on relegation. I dont see why Atalanta would ever agree to this though.. loan us their main striker for a half a season and we only buy if we stay up? Seems like they would just be getting shafted really :lol:

    Still mental tho. Sevilla are 2nd in la liga and still in Europe. Im sure he will get the contract he wants in the summer unless Sevilla arent financially stable?? 

     

    I guess at 28 when you get a chance at one huge contract to some it will get real tempting but aye, swapping their position for ours seems like madness still
