StevO Posted July 25, 2023 Report Share Posted July 25, 2023 1 hour ago, Gwlad said: Depends on how savvy they are, sometimes the agents can persuade them surely. I took Steve’s comments as what the club says, not agent. But I may be wrong. I wouldn’t put it down to a player being savvy in making up their own mind, I would put it down to them being stupid to let the agent make the decision. Tail wagging the dog.

Romey 1878 Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Can't have been as cut and dried of a decision for the lad as some of our non-supporting supporters would have you believe. Do I think he'll choose Atalanta? More than likely, but I'm not going to write the club off at every turn. Newty82 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 I guess the more moves the better for the agents. Year in Italy, then another move next year to Premiership for a bigger fee - I guess would suit an agent nicely. Or is that being to cynical?

Atalanta have also finished 5th, 8th, 3rd, 3rd & 3rd in their last five seasons. That might also have something to do with it.

Romey 1878 Posted July 27, 2023 Report Share Posted July 27, 2023 Looks like it'll be announced today that he's chosen Atalanta. Like I said, it was the most likely but I do think the club will have known that also and have others on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it looks like we have fked the Gnonto deal up how can you negotiate for over a month and still come away with nothing. it looks like we are losing a prime target for the sake of a couple more million.

A negotiation is two sides. What you’re essentially saying is we should have no hard limits on what we spend and we should always get squeezed if it means we can get the player. One might argue that sort of mentality is one reason we are in the financial situation we are.
