Sutton_blows_goats 555 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Joe Aribo making noises about staying next year. As much as i think he is a good player I'd rather have some cash for him and bring some fresh faces in. Don't see him signing a new deal. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to sell high value players who are not going to sign a new contract. Goldson was different as his resale value wasn't as high but Aribo shouldn't be allowed to run down his contract. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, although I'd argue like Bassey, Aribos stock will be at high right row. Just came off the back of a 70 games season where he played the first half really well, fell away about after AFCON but finished strongly, including a good performance leading the line in a EUROPA cup final and scoring a goal. Next season he could get injured or just not play well and not be in the team. We as a team might not play well and underwhelm. Anything can happen in football. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill 8,776 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 If you are Ross Wilson, it becomes impossible to plan a transfer window without making certain assumptions about who you want to keep and who you want to sell, neither of which come with any certainties and will always be subject to the players' wishes. You can't guarantee what will come off but these starting assumptions must inform your activities. It would be fascinating to know how anyone approaches this situation. Our problem is that we have no idea what those assumptions might be. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 3,584 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 If I were a player I would always run down my contract you owe them nothing as you have fulfilled the contract . And pick up a whopping signing on fee from a new club . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil's advocaat 345 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Yup, clubs generally won't break their wage structure on someone just because they don't have to pay a transfer fee either, so it doesn't often pay. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
