Everton did sign the 18-year-old Belgium forward David Henen on deadline day, on loan from Olympiakos after he signed for the Greece club from Anderlecht on the same day, and have an option to sign the striker for €500,000 (£398,000) next summer.

“You can look at the table from last season and we finished fifth and they finished a bit lower, so from that respect you can understand. But, at the same time, Aston Villa have started the season really well and you look at the performances of Fabian Delph and the young players they have, plus they’ve got Christian Benteke coming back, and they are going to be a strong team. But we can’t comment on that, it is down to Manchester United.”

Basically saying that Aston Villa will be challenging Man Utd for places this season. Amazing popcorn from Martinez.

So Olympiacos paid the full £3,000,000 Anderlecht demanded from us and then sell him to us for £398,000?
Either Anderlelecht tried to do one over us and only asked the £3,000,000 from us, or Olympiacos are getting screwed?

As I understand it Henen terminated his contract with Anderlecht and Olympiacos then paid them some compensation - rumours of around 1-1.5 m but nobody really seems to know, it could be lower.

We then got him on loan, presumably paying his full wages plus probably a loan fee that would at least cover Olympiacos' out of pocket costs. Haven't see a loan fee discussed but think it would be very odd behaviour of Olympiacos if there wasn't.

We have an option to buy him for half a million euros. If we do, that money is likely the profit for Olympiacos for doing a little bit of paperwork and at a total cost of <2m to us. If we don't, they will get a young player I assume for free and we've had a years trial of him for a lot less than Anderlecht were originally asking for.

This would make sense. My previous question though stands. If during this season with us he fires and looks like being another Ronaldo, do you think Olympiacos will be happy to sell him to us for only £398,000?
