If they offer what we paid for him, that'd more than do. I wouldn't mind keeping him around if we can't get a decent sum for him, but I worry about him staying fit and his wages are far higher than what we'd like them to be relative to his squad position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalfTimePost Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) We signed him for £17m, he's on big wages and somebody we want to move on (if we didn't have injuries) No way we get £25-30m for him. We'd be lucky to get £12-15m Edited August 19, 2023 by HalfTimePost 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) Quote Barcelona and Aston Villa have reached an agreement to transfer Philippe Coutinho for 20 million euro. The Club have inserted a 50% sell-on clause for any future sale of the player. FC Barcelona would like to publicly state their thanks to Philippe Coutinho for his commitment and dedication, and wish him success and all the best for the future. Agreement with Aston Villa to transfer Philippe Coutinho (fcbarcelona.com) So we need to sell him for 30m euro or ~£25m to not book a loss in our accounts on him Edited August 19, 2023 by CVByrne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 A luxury worth keeping but if sold and it means a new RB and or forward then sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DakotaVilla Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 It was reported as a 4 year contract at 20m euro so that leaves 15m euro and if Barca get 50% of any sale (assuming that’s the clause) then we need 30m Euro to break even. Just have to hope that we get into an auction situation and get over 20m euro (unlikely). If we don’t get the money and think he stays healthy then it’s probably worth keeping him for cups.

It was get the deal done for Stevie irrespective of any risk. No surprise he was pushed out the door. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
