Rumours going about we have bid £5.3m for Lennon Miller.

I think you’ve pressed the wrong numbers Tim by mistake.
There’s no way Celtic have bid £5.3M for a very young Motherwell player whose contract runs out in 2026.
{Ed007's Note - That's what's being bandied about, Buzz.}

I’ve just read the same report and your typing skills are still good ?
I still don’t believe those figures will be accurate due to the lads contract.
Celtic know they will get him for £3M and add ons at the most.

Those figures would rule a certain other club out of the running Ed.
I hope Celtic sign him because it’s important to bring the best young Scottish talent to our club.
Especially since not much is coming through our own youth system.
{Ed007's Note - Even at £6 million I think it'll prove to be a bargain in the long run, he's the best young Scottish midfielder since Lewis Ferguson came through and it still irks me we didn't sign him.}

Evening All
Can't remember which one I posted on (Forum, Podcast or Live Chat) .
I indicated that Celtic "would go all in" to try sign Lennon Miller in January transfer window.
Personally I think his value is at least £5m +

If he doesn’t get sold in January, his valuation will drop because he will be entering the final year of his contract.

Lennon Miller should be signed at any cost but can't see him staying in Scotland he also has a bluenose family but sometimes that doesn't matter.

Think Well want more than Turnbull ehich was about £3:2m and your right Edd eee did miss a trick with Ferguson evn Uncle Barry has voiced his opinion saying we should have as he reckons he's a £20m player now.

I think 5.3m for the best young midfielder in scotland is a fair price. Motherwell have every right to hold out for that fee. Young Miller should be our priority in January and hopefully we act quick as clubs in england will be hovering as well.

We paid more for Holm the following season who can't get anywhere near the team than Bologna paid for Lewis. Even more irritating that Ferguson won the Bulgarelli award for best midfielder in Serie A last season.

We haven’t bid anything yet, no disrespect to anyone but some folk look at articles see a number and think we’ve made a bid, it’s rumoured that that’s what we will look to bid. I don’t like to sound like the guy who has the imaginary contacts but I’ve been in company with several guys inside the parkhead lounges on match days, guys who usually have credible insider knowledge and the talk is it’s pretty much a done deal that he’s coming to us and it’s a record Scottish fee, obviously this indicates the fee rumoured might be indeed true as the record is the 4.4m we paid Hibs for broony, but I haven’t been told an exact figure, just that it’s pretty much a done deal barring any last minute issues. Again, and I’ll repeat, it’s just what I’ve heard and it’s usually a very accurate source who told me Brendan was coming back to us last March which I didn’t believe in the slightest at that time.
In regards to miller and my own opinion, we need to go all out for this lad, I think hatate is looking to go to a better league so miller would be a like for like replacement. Playing and learning from the likes of mcgregor, Engels and mcCowan, Forrest, will only improve his game. We can’t let this one slip like we did with mcGinn.

If we do sign him and it's a big if, I really hope we let him stay at Motherwell for another season on loan.
Also why is it people also mentioned who a players family support?
The boy played for our youth teams and was in our academy and only moved to Motherwell as his dad didn't see a pathway to the first team.
We have also had a lot of previous and current players who grew up supporting the other team
That kind of thing doesn't matter in Football anymore, even Barry Ferguson was wanting us to sign Lewis.

Buzz you are dreaming if you think we will get Miller for 3 million.

Motherwell need to sell him in January whilst his value is high and not let him enter his final year of his contract.
Clubs might not be willing to pay top dollar for a player with only one year left of his contract.
Without repeating myself.

I get that with the contract Buzz, however such is his talent I suspect he will have several options which always pushes the price up. IF the rumours are true it appears Celtic are going in heavy and early to seal the deal and avoid a McGinn scenario.
Remember the rumours also indicate even Sevco are interested at around 3 million tops.

I've read that Motherwell are aiming to receive a club record fee for young Miller of no less than £4M.
This would be an increase on their current record fee of £3.25M for DT back in 2020.
The media love banding about the numbers and it's no surprise this then causes debate amongst supporters.
At the end of the day if BR likes him and thinks he can improve, increase in value and contribute to our continued success along the way, then get him signed.

That's a fair price. He should stay with Motherwell until the summer though.

I’d sign him. Good for us good for Scottish football. We certainly need to get a replacement in for the Captain. Whether that’s him or someone else.
