Roberto Soldado

[Berbatonghen]

This smells of another Lloris scenario to me.

There president will fold imo.

It will be quite dumb for them to reject our offer seeing that it is very close to the 30million euros unless (hope not) another club comes in.

And plus those quotes seems to me that we are very much still in for this deal.

Those quotes were the ones tweeted out in Spanish about 7-8 hours ago FWIW.

"Speaking about ways that deals are paid is normal and this will be done in a way that suits the financial department of Valencia and not that of any other clubs."

Think this is the key here, if they come to an agreement over the structure of payments then it will go through, doesn't sound too far away tbh.

Infact just as I posted this i've seen these on Sky Sports. Worrying if true. Hopefully they're old but I haven't seen them anywhere else

Salvo said: "Soldado can go if he wants - for €30million and under our conditions.
"Valencia never had any intention of selling Soldado. If he goes then it is because the €30million figure has been met, not a cent less or a cent more.
"The buying club will also have to accept Valencia's conditions of payment also.
"We agreed to meet Tottenham again to discuss the ways of paying and we did that because we understood that his buy-out clause would be met.

Think it's jue payment method holding up the deal. Poor Baldini carrying that penny jar all over Europe.

Fair enough lol, but who else is more on the ball than SSN on transfer deadline day?? Definately not BBC.

believe it or not, I use The Sun online and keep refreshing it.... they are 5 minutes ahead of SSN and they seem to get most things bang on....

Interesting quotes if new. Others saying we offered to pay in 5 instalments. They want 15 up front to pay their debts

 

[worcestersauce]

I still think these quotes seem pretty positive

yup, saying we are just tying up payment schedules now.

We should never have sold rasiak

Media outlets saying something you don't like. Must be wrong.

No it's fine saying something I don't like, what is wrong is portraying news that is around 8 hours old as breaking news

Pretty much asking for a transfer request too IMO

e problem is, if we offer 30 million on the last day they have to accept it as its the buy out clause, levy has offerd them the chance so sort it now and give time to get a replacement. I hope we do go back in and sort it but if not I hope we do one over them and put the bid in last day to fuck them off more

So basically they want the £26m unconditionally.

That's quite encouraging.

I posted this before but although it sounds positive this was a reported issue with Benteke and Moutinho though was it not?

Yeah but do they have a sexy brunette with big juggs to look at while you're being updated?

Valencia pres "We won't accept a smaller sum plus add-ons but we have discussed different timescales and ways to pay the total sum" #coys

 

[AJW]

That's quite encouraging.

Agree. Sounds to me they want Soldado to hand in a transfer request so that they don't have to pay loyalty bonuses. And that we just need to agree the timing of payments

I must say I admire #Soldado as a person and as a striker but that's a very big price indeed. Not sure that Valencia are playing this right
