Maybe he will develop into a good player but it seems unlikely he will immediately be an improvement to the team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted June 14 VT Supporter Share Posted June 14 Still not seen anything with quotes from any party saying this is a done deal. Although over here they seem to think that it's "down to the details" point in negotiations. I'm still hoping he'll stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly suggests a sale we don’t want to make but has been enforced… Comments from him, in December: Sawiris unhappy with the financial rules/restrictions. Why the fishing emojis?

Romano’s commented on it quite a bit recently, says terms have been agreed between Dougie and Juve. Yeah, I don’t want it to happen either but I think we all just have to come to terms with it now. Hopefully we make some really exciting signings (and someone who can actually replace Dougie and what he does, rather than just add to the squad) later… first official day of the window now.

It’s his goal celebration, think this was posted when we qualified for CL or last game of the season. Never been anything to suggest Dougie isn’t happy at the club or would want a move… especially after achieving what we have now. Celebrated with Unai when Duran equalised against Liverpool… always praises the manager. This doesn’t feel like a “choice” or something anyone at the club really wants… bloody PSR.

According to Corriere dello Sport that is so might be false. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted June 14 Moderator Share Posted June 14 Interesting in that it seems that time is a big pressure on this deal - McKennie will know that if the deal is delayed by any sort of significant time, it'll reach a point where the reasons why Aston Villa are making the deal will no longer apply. That's going to put a massive amount of pressure on both Villa and Juve - to make this deal count for PSR for us and to get the player for Juve. McKennie's agent will know that if he waits a few weeks, there will be no deal - so, "give me a couple of million pounds or I'll do that". Who is PSR supposed to benefit again? We have a player that a club with money and no debt don't want to sell that they're being forced to sell to meet an arbitrary accounting deadline that allows an agent to take advantage and squeeze a couple of million pounds out of another club. Is that working the way it's supposed to? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulMcGrath_5 Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 He is joining Juve, the McKennie thing is standard for any player when leaving a club, ensuring he is due the amount owing to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 That's fine, let's just ask Barca for Gavi, Balde and £20m for Dougie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted June 14 Moderator Share Posted June 14 The Barca thing reads like the kind of play we would make if we were encouraging Juve to just get on with it and give McKennie his golden handshake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
