Very true.

I won't be surprised if Mousa becomes the first SPFL player to go for 20 million pounds.

£40 million???

I'd long heard rumours that most journalists were monster coke heads..

This is the final proof.

If we really did get a bidding war involving three or four huge clubs I think we could sneak 20 million.

40 is mental.

£40million :rubeyes:

Forty million quid :rubeyes: :rubeyes:

To be fair, that'll be about 10 million Euros in the summer.
Plus, Theresa May and the Hard Brexit effwits will probably boot him out of the UK in 2019.

Luckilly he'll still be in an Indy Scotland so will be fine :clap: :ph43r:

If we get 10-12m we will be doing very well. Were he playing in any of the top 4 leagues, 40m may not be far off the mark. Alas :(
We'll get way more than that for him, although I'm hoping it's a long way down the line when it happens.

France U21 have two friendlies played in France. Côte d'Ivoire on the 10th, and the Bastards on the 14th. :thumbsup:

Keep him. Win some games in the Champions League with him next year after he helps us qualify.

He'll continue to get better and win himself some silverware, raising his profile in the process.

If he's happy to stay then we should absolutely turn down offer. CL qualification and merchandising could get us 30m+ anyway.

If he really wants to leave it should be at the end of summer, not January. He looks to be into it though so I don't think he'll be demanding any quick exit. Aside from anything he'll want a shot at a treble.
:thumbsup:

Think it will benefit him to stay here for a couple of years.

Sure I read that Zidane said much the same a few weeks back.

40 million may be overboard but make no mistake Moussa will at least double the Scottish transfer record (and more) when he eventually does go.

This is a young guy who has all the physical attributes, can go in behind, has great strength, has an abundance of skill and score goals..

He is proven at Championship level, is starring for the France under 21 team and has performed well against a top Champions league team (scoring two goals). On top of that the guy is only 20 years old and will get better and better.

Clubs like Man City don't bother about transfer fees and if they think this guy can be a star for them and turn into a 60 million pound player then they will pay 20/30/40 million.

Just watched this video of the big guy, twice.

Think he's destined for the very top. He's skillful, powerful, and just unorthodox enough to potentially make him very special.

The level of the fee could be driven by Dembele potential involvement in France WC qualifiers. Given the competition in the squad, it's far from granted, but if he stays two seasons with us and then plays in the WC, we could expect a high transfer fee.

On watching the game back, he actually did pretty well in the second half too.

He created a few good chances for the team.

You honestly think we will be "doing well" to get 10-12m for Dembele. Based on what?

Based on his arsegrapes giving him jip. Man U paid £36 million for Martial ffs.

Not forgetting that Dembele counts as a homegrown English player for CL squads due to spending enough of his youth football at Fulham.

I'm going to really put my reputation on the line and say we will not get 40m for him.

Lucky to get five or 6m for Virgil according to some of the luminaries on here. If he is in demand by top clubs it's almost certain he will smash the record set by VvD. If we get 10 to 12m, in today's market, we will have been robbed blind. That is the same money Villa paid for Ross McCormack.
