Ed, with all this talk about sell on fees n money we might get from vvd deal. Do you know if Fulham would be due anything if/ dembele leaves?

{Ed007's Note - No mate, not in a sell on clause percentage anyway as he left under freedom of contract so there was no real negotiations or contract with Fulham. There is however solidarity payments or training compensation due on players up until the season of their 23rd birthday. It's a fixed formula to work it out and won't be a great amount of money and to be honest I'm not 100% on who would pay it, us or whoever buys him.
Just as a side note, Groningen had a 10% sell on clause with VVD so they got just over £1 million from his sale to Southampton.}

While Fulham do not have a sell on clause for Dembele, I am pretty sure that him and his agent are due 30% of any future sale.

{Ed007's Note - I seriously doubt that. So if Dembele went for the (ahem) £18 million him and his agent get £3.6 million of it or £25 million and they get £7.5 million off it? Excuse my French but that's total pomme frites bolloques!!}

Can't see pedro agreeing to that.

I definitely read that the clause was there and I don't think it is unreasonable either.

I am almost certain that lots of clubs were chasing Dembele when he was out of contract which would have gave him a strong bargaining position.

I also think if it is true that 70% of any future fee is good business for Celtic as they knew they were getting a valuable asset.
