Jinky67 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 12 minutes ago, AJF said: I think there will be a sale or two regardless if we qualify for the Champions League, simply by virtue of cashing in on players when their values are high. But yes, if we fail to qualify, there will be sales no doubt. The club have been clear in the last year or so that the model we are moving towards is qualify for the CL or sell an asset - something that Celtic have done successfully for a while now. It's just that this is the first time we have had a squad that includes a few valuable assets. Kamara will likely be away - there's been talk that we've offered him a new deal on the basis that we are protecting his value but will not stand in his way if an acceptable offer comes in. Its been a successful model for Celtic for a couple of seasons now and lets be honest a necessary one with no Champions League money going into the coffers. I imagine you could take your pick from Kent, Morelos or Kamara and of the 3 i imagine Kent is probably the most valueable? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangemouth Bairn Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 52 minutes ago, Jinky67 said: Oh i think it was intended based on his last comment in the clip which is a bold move considering it could fire Rangers up and blow up in his face, still funny though Christie is an interesting one as we aren’t really sure however there is reason to believe he is open to staying and a motivated Christie in this form is like a new signing and has to be dealt in imo. I do like how Ange answers these questions on a players future though, leaves them very clear that they won’t be pandered to Christie will only get the chance to move if another club wants him and so far there have been no bids - either clubs don’t fancy him or more likely are waiting till his contract runs down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble, as I've seen with Aberdeen, is the English don't value anyone up here at a reasonable price. The fact Kamara is a full international and former Arsenal youth, might change their perception, but there's only a month left. It's hard to guess, but I'd be disappointed if he went for anything less than £10m, particularly given that we just saw someone like Ajer go for £13m who had a year left on his deal after a poor season. That's not to say that I'm a fan of the argument that X player went for X amount so Y player should go for Y amount, but it's reflective of the type of fees that are getting thrown around. 2 minutes ago, Jinky67 said: Its been a successful model for Celtic for a couple of seasons now and lets be honest a necessary one with no Champions League money going into the coffers.

Yep, I'd agree Kent the most valuable, particularly to English sides if you take into account the premium they pay for English players as he will satisfy homegrown status rules. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how long he spent in England prior to joining Dundee. Someone more clued up than me may be able to answer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Rangers man. One outrageously good league season, against the weakest collection of clubs, including Celtic, in a decade, amongst an absolute avalanche of failures. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 For any Rangers fan disappointed by tonight, you have to remember how far you have come. It was only 9 years ago that you were a new club battling to get out of League 2, and now look at you, even being on the same pitch as a club like Malmo is a fantastic achievement. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there was a fluff piece around the time they were all-but-champions that they put out basically saying "yeah we need to sell players soon" which was well before getting Malmo'd. Willing to bet in 3 months they'll be announcing another £10M+ loss again what with Covid restrictions and the like. edit: found it! dunno how far clear they were at that point tbf but yeah, it was laying the groundwork for whats to come.
