MaVilla Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 This is terrible. What is the Finn Azaz loan thread going to be called now? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted January 3 VT Supporter Share Posted January 3 Happy for Azaz to have earned a permanent move. Happy for Villa to be making some money. Sad for Argyle (grew up in Devon so they're my 2nd team and watch them fairly regularly). Be good if we can send them another loan but guess they need to sort out their new manager first. Rough week for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 He still had at least one more year left on his contract after this season, he signed a contract extention before going to Plymouth in the summer, this was to avoid losing him on a free once his loan ended this season. He's done well, very well, but he isn't one of the best players in the Championship, if he was that, a better team than Middlesbrough would be buying him, especially for £2.5m or whatever it is. He's still obviously a very decent Championship level player though, which is an incredible rise he's had since signing for us, and maybe can develop more, but given he didn't have long left on his Villa deal, even allowing for the contract extention, then £2.5m seems about right, and who knows maybe we will have a small sell on clause too.

mikeyp102 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Tanswell saying last yr of contract, I’d guess that’s why fee is so low. Still gutting as City/Liverpool get £5m for a player like Azaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted January 3 Moderator Share Posted January 3 I thought we'd only ever given him one year contracts - the plan having always been to get him some exposure then sell him on? Anyways, cheers Finn for the money and that one game you played at Walsall in pre-season - a fine servant to the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Tanswell is wrong about that, he signed a contract extention in the summer, he wasn't out of contract then, he still had one more year left on his deal at the time, so contract extention means he still had at least one more year on his Villa deal after this season. There's no way we would be getting £2.5m for him if he only had six months left on his deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan95 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) 7 goals and 5 assists this season in less than 20 matches worth of minutes! 15 goals and 14 assists in total for Plymouth in 60 league appearances. Very impressive from midfield and makes £2.5M seem a little on the low side? Edited January 3 by villan95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Aston Villa are pleased to confirm that Finn Azaz has signed a contract extension and will immediately join Plymouth Argyle on a season-long loan. 'Contract extension' I've been spelling extension as extention, but also lets examine the word extension - extension, it means to extend something, in this case we extended Azaz's already existing contract, if he was out of contract and he signed a new deal it wouldn't have been called a 'contract extension' because there would be nothing to extend, it would have been termed as him signing a new deal with us, not as a contract extension, we gave him an extra year on top of the year left he had, to avoid losing him on a free at the end of this season. avfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wishywashy Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) So long, the Finn Azaz loan thread. My vote's on renaming it to the Louie Barry loan thread. Edited January 5 by wishywashy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Good look Finn! Hope you smash it and we have some decent bonuses built in to the sale fee as 2.5m is not enough for what you've delivered in the Champ so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romavillan Posted January 5 VT Supporter Share Posted January 5 any talk of a buy back clause? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Judging by the article I think we might have inserted buyback clause, as it follows the same structure as the announcements for Archer, Ramsey, and Philogene, that is we haven't wished him good luck with the rest of his career, something we normally do for players leaving without a buyback. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
