CONFIRMED Cameron Archer signs for the Blades - 4 year contract

[PaddysMad]

Having watched Villa get battered he’ll want to come to the team higher in the league.

 

[Harrisblade]

yeah depends if the clause is like something they can trigger anytime (so we want to keep they want to buy him back) or its a guaranteed price for them if we do decide to sell

I think the Liverpool/Brewster deal was - we paid them £20m and then no earlier than after 3 seasons they could buy him back for £40m

 

[Berkshire Blade]

I know buy backs are kinda new but have they ever actually been triggered? It's not just a case of, in this example, of villa rating him and wanting him back. If another club also want him and pay a set amount he's well within his rights to go. Of course villa might be not in need of a striker or have the funds when a massive bid comes in etc so I am not really sure what the fear from our side would be unless it was a tiny amount of money

 

[FriethBlade]

It's not a loan as we have bought him and can sell him.
It's just that if we do (and it depends on wording of clause) Villa have first dibs if Archer is succesful, so we'll stiĺ make profit on him whilst he's been good for us on the pitch

"Buy-back clauses in transfer agreements are used primarily to give a selling club the security of being able to repurchase a promising player at a set fee should the player excel in the future."

That's all well and good but what about a sell back clause so if they're shit (Brewster ) you can sell them back at the same percentage decrease in price as the increase applied to the buyback

Xavi Simons this summer is a recent one

City did it with Angelino and then sold home again for a profit

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

The club have to ask themselves how much do we need this signing? The power is with the seller in this case and they will know how desperately short of attacking quality we are. i guess the other question is who else of this quality is out there who we could afford and would come.

 

[ThatJa]

I find it hard to believe we won't accept a by back clause when we did for Brewster and look how that turned out.

I think if we can get an offer of 10m accepted with a 40m buy back we would go for that. Its a guaranteed 30m profit if he does well. Its a no brainer.

 

[Rifleman ITK]

What do they want?

They’ve accepted €15m including add ons

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

They’ve accepted €15m including add ons

This happening then?

 

[mattbianco1]

I think the Liverpool/Brewster deal was - we paid them £20m and then no earlier than after 3 seasons they could buy him back for £40m

Expect that to be a done deal before end of month.

 

[Brownieblade]

They’ve accepted €15m including add ons

So signing him on Monday then, ready for Friday

 

[Pollingtonblade]

Tamzin Archer would have been more efficient than that midfield today.

 

[YES Blade]

They’ve accepted €15m including add ons

£15m including add ons, so probably something like £10m-£12m. Not too bad, maybe a little bit more than I’d like to pay but it’s what the market is

 

[Blade56]

£15m including add ons, so probably something like £10m-£12m. Not too bad, maybe a little bit more than I’d like to pay but it’s what the market is

I think he meant they’ve accepted Lens offer of €15m not £15m from us

 

[YES Blade]

I think he meant they’ve accepted Lens offer of €15m not £15m from us

I assumed that was a typo and we’ve had a £15m offer for Archer accepted? This is the Archer thread

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

I asked what Boro want rifle said they have accepted €15m but that’s not from us.

 

[YES Blade]

I asked what Boro want rifle said they have accepted €15m but that’s not from us.

Apologies, I missed that bit.

 

[RetfordBlade]

yeah also very confusing

 

[Blade58]

Yeah but is this Akpom or Archer?

Are we getting cross purposes?

 

[Brownieblade]

[John Cutsbushes]

Both C.A
I"m more than confused
Which one are we signing?
I'll guess neither

 

[Rifleman ITK]

Yeah but is this Akpom or Archer?

Are we getting cross purposes?

I was replying to a question about Akpom

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

I was replying to a question about Akpom

So no update on Archer then?

 

[Rifleman ITK]

So no update on Archer then?

We’ve started talks with villa beyond that I don’t know

 

[Large Mendonca]

Well we are on the Archer thread so I can see where wires have got crossed

 

[Blade56]

Well we are on the Archer thread so I can see where wires have got crossed

I thought this was the readers wives thread

 

[bertieblade]

How many people on this thread know absolutely nothing ?

I would hazard a guess that all of them, including the ones who are hazarding a guess!

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Through some agent contacts in the book world I asked his uncle Jeffery and he promised me it's said it's a done deal and, I quote, " if I am lying send me to prison"

 

[moody1889]

I wish people would stop with the f*cking waffle and be straight up
