Problem with Maupay isn’t with Brentford it’s with the agent but our camp are still very confident a deal will be reached. As I stated before the interest in Osborn is real and gathering pace. Not going to post for the sake of it but will when I have concrete news.

Omdddddd he posted
 
I've not got any work done in a week now, please can we hurry up & either sign Maupay or get a final "he's not signing for us" & move on 😩

I know we live in a modern era so anything is possible re communication and transport but SUFC, apparently including Stephen Betis, are in Portugal and Brentford and Maupay are in Austria. Media reports seem to be suggesting that we've made an enquiry only at this stage, either way, it seems a fee hasn't been agreed yet or the structure of the deal yet to be agreed so it seems a deal is far from done. I doubt this will be done, if it is to be done, until next week. Hendo seems more likely to be done first.

Dyou mean a bid has been accepted by Brentford but the agent is being difficult with contracts etc?
 
  • Haha
Reactions: FYT

So the agent is touting around for better offers?

Problem is though Richard, as I'm sure you'll agree, the agent effectively is Maupay if the player allows the agent to speak for him, which presumably he does. That's the problem with agents but also players who seem happy to let the agent do all the talking and ensure their client gets the best deal but that probably scuppers many a deal.
 
So I’m guessing nothing or very early doors with McBurnie, maybe we have only just put offer in as suggested by papers and no chance for a response yet

Honestly i'd be chuffed with an official announcement regarding Hendo at this point!

Cheers RC. Yet again (potentially) proving other ITK'ers know nowt. For the past week it's been Brentford supposedly moving the goal posts.

Morale of the story, don't believe Twitter ITKs, be they Kevin Gage, "Bran", or whoever else.
 
I think we can all go about our day safe in the knowledge that we ain’t going to miss anything.

Everyone else has said it's 'close' and 'still happening' so not much different to be fair :)

Nice one RC , that explains any hold up then , bloody agents as many have also mentioned .
Thanks for the update
 
Can everyone just stop posting on this thread now so it's only bumped when Sir Richard of Cadette updates us?
It'd really help me get on with my day to day life.

Good news is we've only got a month to go now and whatever will be. We know we've got the best manager we could possibly get and in Betis a man who Wilder rates very highly so all looks promising.

Hmmm, personally I believe JL94x4 that the deal is dead...…or we could ask maxstertheblade he knows more than JL & RC put together.

Agents are the biggest cancer in football, and have been for some time. The sooner they're f*cked off the better!

If both clubs are happy, the players happy, why the f*ck is the deal being held up because some useless arsehole thinks he isn't getting enough % for doing f*ck all?

But I wanted to know about Mcburrnie and Podolski 😭

Most of the people saying it's close have then also said it's Brentford who are messing us around. Which suggests to me that they don't know anything.
 
If there is no problem with Brentford as said and Maupay wants to come as said he should fire his agent.

The only real problem with agents is that they don't get (all) their commission directly from the player they represent. It's the most bizarre situation. To try and give it some context, imagine a double glazing salesman, door to door. He is on commission only, paid by the window company when he makes a sale. Imagine if his commission had to be paid by the old lady buying the windows, on top of the windows cost?
The sooner the agents are paid entirely by the players, the better.
 
It's not totally the agent's fault that they're a cancer within football. The players have the responsibility to choose a responsible agent. Surely if a player simply allows an agent to do all the talking for him (I would guess with the remit of getting the best/highest wage you can for me) he's allowing someone else to decide whether a deal happens or not?
