Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

[MemphisWill]

Its £15 million and an extra £5 million if we win the league and £5 million if we win the CL so basically its £15 million!

 

[rhenkt]

Thought 15m sounded too good to be true.

Lol right because Crook is so reliable, when Sky and Telegraph both said 15m.

I think all of them are "correct". 15 is probably the base fee. But if we pay all the bonuses it comes up to 25 in total.

that's half budget already

KWP going the other way for £12 million = £3 million spent

These bonuses almost mean nothing to the buying team so it's a bit of a win-win.

£15m base + £1m for each cup (3) win + £2m for winning the League + £5m for making 2021/22 CL and suddenly Soton can tell their supporters they got £25m for him.

That being said, this may indicate that Mourinho actually really wants PEH, because the only leverage Soton has is how fast this happens, so Levy adding this on top seems to be a way to grease the skids to get him in now.

That's quite naive. It's almost always heavily based on appearances.

Whatever is used the logic behind it is still the same.

 

[hiatus]

£20m + add-ons to £25m? Seems believable.

 

[Don Giovanni]

25m for an average CM that will be free agent in 10 months time?

We should screw them with KWP too, 20m or fuck off.

at least 5-8m of the 10m in bonuses will be easily, realistically achievable though. they won't be "balon dor shortlist" and treble wins.

£100m if Hojbjerg wins the Ballon d'Or seems like the kinda of performance bonus I could get behind.

It's like on FM and you sign German players based entirely on international caps... when the German National team isn't in the game

Now to sell KWP to Fulham

 

[Doc]

Dan Kilpatrick reporting a £3m difference between KWP and PEH. Decent signing, hopefully he steps up his game a bit with better players around him.

This move works out well in the imagined scenario that it allows Mourinho to play Ndombele. Hojberg sharing the field with Sissoko is something I dread.

 

[hiatus]

Certainly will give Mourinho the tactical flexibility to play a 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1 or 4-4-2 if we get a second striker. I'm at the "just buy a DM" stage of desperation after two years, so getting one in now super early in the window is great.

Let's face it that is going to happen. Might as well prepare ourselves for it now.

So saints journalists spinning as a great & more expensive deal for them & spurs journalists spinning as a cheaper excellent deal for us
