Louis Saha

[Robert Jarvis]

I see Saha is on a Bosman come New Years Day.

I see Saha is on a Bosman come New Years Day.

Where did you see that?! I think his contract is up in the summer- end of a 2 year deal? Does that mean he can talk to other clubs come January?

 

[Bilya7]

He can talk to foreign clubs come January i think.

He can talk to foreign clubs come January i think.

Yup. Bosman at end of season.

But, like I said earlier in the thread, I truly believe he will sign for us again.

 

[Lien]

I think he'll sign on... providing we indicate we firmly want to keep him and don't just assume he'll stay.

I get the feeling he's pleased we've shown commitment in him through his stint here, despite having a few injuries still. Plus the fact he's recapturing some of the best form of his career would point towards him staying.

Climbing up the table will hopefully be the cherry.

Didn't Everton receive an offer from Bestikas for Saha and Saha himself turned it down saying he owed Everton for giving him a chance even though he was on "pay for play" kind of contract?

Think he resigns as well - he's in great form and he's stayed pretty healthy /knocking on wood/. He may not get the cash he'd really prefer but he knows Moyes thinks very highly of him.

2nd bit is nail-on-head stuff.

And tbh, given his age (30/31?), I'm sure he'll be happy with the money he's getting.

 

[TX Bill]

Would love to see him finish his career with us to be honest.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

It goes without saying the kid has talent. I hope his desire is to stay put.

 

[coolblue007]

He's going to stay, and I'll tell you why.

Just bought my nephew a Saha shirt over the summer. It's still a tad large, and he won't even grow into it until probably next fall. So, for that, Saha must stick around. If I have to, I'll alert him to the fact. I'm sure he'll sign for that, yeah?

 

[ToxtethBlue]

If I was worried about anyone going for him It'd be Arsenal. They need a striker with Van Persie out and Louis Saha fits the bill. And obviously there's the French connection.

£8m bid from Beskitas.

Everton Reject Besiktas Bid For Louis Saha - Report - Goal.com

“Louis is someone we had a big bid for,” admitted the Everton boss.

“But he didn't want to go and we didn't want to sell.

“It's great news Louis wants to stay.”

It was in the Echo, his contract expires in the summer but he is available on a bosman from the 1st January on. That is the story in the Echo.

 

[Dylan]

He is free to talk to clubs about signing on a Bosman in the summer. He is still under contract with us until the summer, just when the 6 months kick in he is allowed to speak to clubs without our permission.

We could still sell him in this window and recieve money for him if we chose to.

Depending on what clauses Man United have on sell ons.
