Pure Rumour - Heitinga to Inter £10m

[MartSlinger]

He has 2yrs left, was our player of the season so selling him for anything less than what we bought him for is unacceptable, its as simple as that.

 

[Del]

At the end of the day when a player only has 10-12 months left the price drops, Just look at RVP

5m is a good price,Better than him leaving for free next summer

The papers are reporting he's in his last year.

JOHNNY HEITINGA IS NOT IN HIS LAST YEAR LADS. THE OFFICIAL SITE SAYS SO.

Well they are wrong.. Off the OS.

'Dutch international John Heitinga was Everton's fourth signing of the summer in 2009.

The defender arrived from Atletico Madrid for an initial fee of £6m which could rise to £7m. He signed a five-year contract.'

 

[ijjysmith]

In which case £5m is unacceptable.

 

[Del]

The real question is why did the club allow him to run down his contract to the last 12 months

Its just not good enough and just another thing in a long list of cock ups

99% of what is in the papers at this time of the year is complete jarg. Whats Sheedy has said is good enough for me.

Frankly the way Fenerbache have acted over the Yobo deal over the last couple of years is pathetic. I would have him recalled in an instant and block them from ever doing business with Everton ever again. I know we are desparate for cash but you've got to draw a line somewhere. £5m for Heitinga is an insult.

With Ledley King retiring and Kyle Walker injured Everton shpould be trying to offer Yobo to Spurs as part exchange for Pienaar.

 

[Pblueman]

He is NOT IN THE LAST 12MTHS of his contract until June 2013

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

In which case £5m is unacceptable.

Completely. If they're that keen they wont mind waiting till we've touted him round for £7.5m etc.

If Heitinga has said point blank that he wont sign a new deal, then I can understand trying to flog him asap.

Why the [Poor language removed] has neville got a 3 year contract left.


Makes my eyes bleed

 

[jaybeerex]

well i'm certainly not going to doubt the validity of a club as honest and truthful with it's business practices as Everton. To take a 4 year + option and spin it as 5 to appear longer? they would never surely?

wonder if our 'theatre impresario' chairman has any pennies left 'offshore' for his summer jollys.

 

[Del]

5m is a good price lads

You dont wanna see him walk next summer for **** all do you?

Sheeds will confirm this but the club have been seeking potential buyers for some time in the background.

Still it has been some week.
