He could see out his 4 years here and leave for free.
That would be great.

Don't think we would be that naïve.

We could extend his contract on the promise that if a specific club comes in for a certain agreed valuation then he can go with our best wishes.

if he was to stay for 4 years then walk for free then I think it would be worth it. Pedro would be tearing his hair out mind you :lol:

his price will be influenced that he would count as homegrown for the Inglish clubs

when he goes, it will be for a fee that will hold the transfer record in Scotland for many years to come

My cousin said he heard from a fairly reliable source that Real Madrid are in advanced negotiations about a £20m deal. He would be loaned back to us until the end of next season.

I'd take that. There could also be some truth in it as Zidane has been saying he should stay at Celtic for 2 years and Madrid have a transfer ban just now so can't register players.

I'd be fairly happy with that - 2 years with us and £20m and then off to Madrid for the lad. Sounds good.

Do we get the £20m up front so that we can strengthen while he's still here?

:lol:
Not asking for much ;)

edit to add;
i'm sure we've a long term un-utilised o/draft facility for £20m plus.
no reason we couldn't dip into that for players in the knowledge that the Madrid monies are on the way!

Just what I was pondering. I'd think not, particularly with him staying. it would be interesting if we could though, I'd expect Brendan might assemble quite the squad by next September.

Madrid can eff off :thumbsup:

If he is worth £20M just now his value is just going to rocket. Our board know that and they aren't going to drop their suit trousers for the first offer that comes their way.

We are a selling club. Under no illusions of that but this kid is going straight to the top. We will cash in for much higher than £20M.

Zidane has helped us everytime he opens his mouth about Moussa. He absolutely raves about the kid. When one of the games greats goes weak at the knees you know you have a talent on your hands.

£20m isn't enough.

This boy is the real deal - 20 years of age.

£30m should start the bidding and my tongue is not in my cheek.

No. 7 for France? He's going a far way to put himself into the same breath as other No. 7's we've been gifted down the years.
Ljungberg, Miku, Juninho, Zurawski and the likes?
And he's still got some ways to go to oust our current number 7 out of place.

£20m and getting to keep him for a couple of seasons is a decent deal I'd say.

If we weren't getting to keep him I'd want more.

And if he runs riot in those 2 seasons we will have been gagged, tied up and robbed.

Yep. Selling ourselves short if we take that. We'd be gambling an extra 10-15mil if he keeps tearing it up on loan.

And if he gets injured/is pish we have won a watch.

£20m and a loan back would be a great bit of business for us I think :thumbsup:

You think so you're not convinced. If, IF Madrid are considering a £20million bid then I'd wager there's others willing to up that. £20million is a lot but I believe we could end up with egg on our face if we accepted. Vrigil was stolen from us too.

There's lots of ifs and buts about every scenario. If we sold him for £30m this Summer and his replacement didn't hit the ground running, we could fail to qualify for the CL.

No one knows what the best deal is just now :thumbsup:

I just hope, for once, the scepticism about the standard of Scottish football means that any potential suitors will wait a bit longer before bidding. His stock is rising rapidly, if he scores in either of both of the City/Barcelona games in the CL he will be even more in the spotlight. If Celtic manage to keep him beyond next summer's transfer window, that will be a bonus. Hopefully what he says himself about wanting to stay at Celtic for a while is true. What a player this guy is already, I think it is up to him how far he goes in the game, he seems very level-headed and focused on his game.

If he scores in any of the next two games he becomes our all time top scorer in the CL group stages :lol:
