We are prepping a bid apparently according to Pete O'Rourke He's someone I have said I'd like us to look at for a while. Very very good striker for this level with room to develop further. I'd be over the moon if they pulled this off.
Sam Nombe: Exeter City will not sell top-scorer says boss Gary Caldwell - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66392640
He’s a credible source, or at least he’s not a random Twitter account with 16 followers (all bots). I’d be quite surprised but I’d be impressed. Definitely seems like what we need. £1 million is a lot for us though?
From the same article: Caldwell added: "The reality is he's here and he'll be here unless a huge offer comes in, and it would need to be a huge offer to get him." Everyone has a price. If their board deem the offer acceptable they'll accept. He's in his final year there too. Not saying we will get him by the way, but we know as well as any fans, every player has a price. We've seen plenty leave that the club didn't want to sell.
I wonder what constitutes "huge" for Exeter City? Apparently MK Dons have a 35% sell-on clause, so they'll probably be holding out for something in the region of £1.2 miliion.
No idea. If he's not going to sign a new deal there, anything is better than nothing next summer. Really do hope it's one they can get done though.
One more year on his contract? Surely tht means hes only worth 500k? Or is that only a Barnsley thing
I'm a bit non plussed about this. I think we'll sell someone before the window, so there may be money there. At the moment I'm more worried about our defence & holding midfield roles, to which we await answers. If Luca could be back soon I'd be more positive about going with a striker.
Depends what he's asking for in wages. Hopefully someone's decided to pay a couple of million for Styles, though at the minute that would seem quite unlikely.
