2017/18 Davy Klaassen

[ilikecheese]

Oh I missed the @MarcelsGoat name change.

Hope it doesn't turn out like @MorgsGoat did.

If he does got to Besiktas on that deal, then it's not the worst that could happen, but half of me still thinks he's worth keeping for pre-season at least and see from there.

Ten games in total last season?

He was good in a 4-3-3 for Ajax. Let's see how he could get on in a 4-3-3 here...

He's clearly willing to fight for his place.

State of that deal. It will end up like the Yobo Fenerbache saga

He's a good player.

Bet they offer 50p to buy him in the end. This club never learns about the Yobo deal.

 

[collymcd]

This deal is the equivalent to getting a loan deal from a talking dog at the back of a hatchback. Shady all round.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

How is this a good deal for us? That doesn't come close to covering his wages and there's no way they are exercising that fee. I have no doubt he needs to go somewhere and play to get his value back, but we can't do better than 1.5M?

 

[4737carlin]

Who sorted that? Pathetic move that, keep him or sell for a good fee, loan is pointless

 

[markDee]

So we buy a player for 24m, play him for 5 mins, then loan him out for 2 years for 3m?

Mental deal if true.

Give the lad a chance ffs

...they’ve said they have to move players on and I presume this totally gets his wages off the books for 2 years and brings in a small income. We were always going to have to take a major financial hit on Klaassen. I’m afraid this is a consequence of Walsh/Koeman.

Move him out, move on.

 

[Groucho]

Deal makes total sense to me, I mean I would personally keep him and give a try, but hes a risk, if we can get him off the books and actually out "making money" for us, then sure, do it.

I mean not a chance in hell those pesky Turks will pay 17m for him in 2 years, but we could probably still punt him for 10-15m at a push, maybe, added to his loan fees, works out at like a 6m hit, give or take a few pennies.

Two year loan though is odd isn’t it?

 

[bring the ghost on]

Jesus lads he’s rubbish, he isn’t getting into the squad next year.

Ship him out asap.

Loan is the only realistic scenario

To sell him, we would need to recoup at least £19m otherwise we make an accounting loss and end up negatively affecting what we are allowed to spend

Loan was always the most likely outcome

 

[brigadier]

Trade him for a player in the Dutch league, if not a Noel Edmonds swap shop deal, we might even get a millennium falcon.
