He cost you £30 you're not going to sell him on the cheap, he could be one of the best strikers in the world as he hits 26/27 years old, he also might not be but the signs are there that he'll continue to improve so the price is driven by that.
I think somewhere in the middle, more like £60-65m No way they will let him go for £40m And no way anyone will pay £80m
Arsenal were £1 short of meeting the $40,000,002 release clause. If only they weren't so stingy and offered an extra £1. We've been on the other side of a club not honouring a transfer fee. There was that Ukrainian guy a year or two before Suarez (mind gone blank on his name). We met the release clause but they wouldn't sell anyway. I suspect the club learned from that that they're hard to enforce.
£70 million?! Bloody hell that's a lot of dough. I was thinking more like £35-40 but my estimations have been off recently. Seems prices have just exploded.
Lukaku is Taylor made for Spurs....he could take them up a level but it won't happen as 1) they won't pay £80 mil and 2) they won't pay the wages around £150,000 pw Tight yids
I'm guessing that Everton would be very reluctant to sell to any Prem rival. Italy, Paris, Spain, maybe....
