I'm hearing, Dembele is next in line for a new contract. 4 years apparently. I'm just passing on what I heard so please take it easy on me 😂. A lot of talk going around of this.

I'd be chuffed with that.

Tell me about it! Also heard the whole Edouard deal is 9m including his contract? Not sure how true that is. ED007 can u elaborate on the Edouard fee etc?

Agree2 Disagree1

{Ed007's Note - I'd be guessing mate but as soon as I can find out I'll post it.}

If it is including the contract it is exactly what I have said the press have done for the insects with every player they have signed. The eddy deal? I'll leave alone till there is more info as there may be elaborate add-ons. Insect wise they reported 10m or so in transfer fees. The unaudited accounts clipped that back by a third. If the papers are trying that p*$# the club should be honest and tell the fans. BR rubbished the 7m, said it was less. Now its 9? No point giving anyone any ammo further down the line. No need. The blueprint for fuddery is across the river. Leave them and thier earwig sports desk puppets to it and set thier "record" straight.

If we do sign Dembele to a new contract, Will we possible change to a 3-5-2 formation with the two French boys playing together.

The press release from Celtic said we broke our record transfer fee.

Agree2 Disagree1

{Ed001's Note - according to the papers filed with UEFA it was about 10m euros. Though that could be including add ons, it was not made clear.}

16 Jun 2018 10:08:05
BR never said it was less than 7 million, he said it wasn't 7,but he never said it was less or more, the sun reports it as it Could hit ten million, with add-ons including the sell on clause,

Agree1 Disagree1

16 Jun 2018 10:24:14
I heard that the fee was originally 7million with a 25 or 30% sell on clause but big Pete offered the 9milion up front with no sell on clause. Don't know how much truth there is in that though.

Jesus, it's hardly worth the Celtic's board time signing a worthwhile target . The negative nappy wetters on here are beside themselves belittling the transfer . Why any Celtic supporter should get worked up by the size of any particular fee is beyond me . Is it possible a Celtic fan could think he could catch the like of D D, PL, and
B R out and if they did, so what, Celtic will continue rather Eduords is £10m. or £4m.

OE confirmed on 4 year deal great business by the club. Real statement of intent.

Great bit of business when you consider it didn't really cost us that much money, take of the VVD sell on and your probably talking about 3 million?

Agree3 Disagree1

15 Jun 2018 14:19:58
Plus the 1 million for big Erik takes it down to about 2 million outlay.

Agree2 Disagree1

15 Jun 2018 15:36:07
plus the million, or around there for our world cup players. Ha Ha, pretty much nothing. Lovely.

Agree2 Disagree1

Unfortunately I can’t see Peter Lawell thinking the same, although I really hope we get another couple of decent lads in . Like a previous poster said, maybe keep looking at young French lads as the last few have worked really well.

Agree1 Disagree1

15 Jun 2018 17:05:21
I think with the business model we are using to buy young and develop to sell on for a profit we should be giving these players longer contracts to protect the investment and make as much from them as possible 2 years down the line OE could be our top striker banging the goals in and with only 2 years left on his contract weakens our position at the negotiating table.

{Ed007's Note - Jesus wept!}

Four years is a long contract nowadays.

Agree1 Disagree1

15 Jun 2018 19:40:02
C'mon big d have a word with yourself.

Agree1 Disagree2

15 Jun 2018 22:46:48
That’s a good point big. D. Ed do you think there’s a chance Edouard will be sold in this window? 😂😂😂.

Agree1 Disagree2

{Ed007's Note - Well his contract's a day shorter so I can see us cashing in if the right offer comes in. We don't want to risk losing him for nothing.}

16 Jun 2018 11:48:59
I heard big Eddie is running down his contract so he can leave on a free 😳.

Agree2 Disagree1

16 Jun 2018 16:00:46
Yes very good I'm just trying to be realistic when a team from one of the bigger leagues comes calling and they most likely will an extra year or two would give Celtic a stronger hand Not trying to put a downer on him signing or anything it's just one thing that irks me when it comes to contracts when we all know these guys come in and sold on same as sell on clauses we should try for larger sell on clauses but anyway Welcome to Celtic OE.

Hi Ed, Not sure if the website is legit but according to Kickoff. com we are after Fabian Schär of Switzerland?
