This is absolutely crazy talk about January. If this apparent £25m is on offer in January, it will also be in late August 2017 after the CL quals are wrapped up.

That's the absolute minimum Moussa should be with us.

I think we will get 2 seasons, and I hope we have the balls to refuse all pre signing/loan back offers in the meantime.

I think he is passed the point of it being a risk to hold on that time.

Van Nistelrooy picked up a serious injury and it didn't stop him getting his big move to Man Utd.

2 seasons with his current trajectory and we'll get £35/40 million

Can't see him going in January but money does speak. If a large enough bid came in, the board would take it. Anything less than 15m, I reckon they would reject.
Why though? He's 20 years old and on a 4 year contract... his value is only going to increase. There is absolutely no need to sell him in this window, or the next.
Because form isn't permanent. The board wont take that chance if there's 15m+ up for grabs in January.

Lots of players have had it, lost it and failed to live up their original potential. Look at Torres at Liverpool(and don't say they got 50m for him, its a different market down there) , off the top of my head, Boruc was once spoke of as a 15m goalkeeper when at us and we told A.C. iirc we didn't want to sell him straight away. He went onto have another good season or so before making a bit of an arse of his final year with us.

No chance he'll ever leave in a January window, that's for building towards qualifying for the CL.
£40m + just for being in the group stages.
January is for shedding deadwood & adding quality (now), gone are the days of Willo Flood.

As great as Moussa's potential is, no Scottish club will receive more than £20-25million for one player in the foreseeable future. No shame in that BTW, it was only 7 seasons ago that our best striker was sold for £3.5 million so perspective is everything.

See your other predictions i.e Griffiths' transfer value. Agree otherwise, he's going nowhere this season :thumbsup:

So what about the summer then when we are in the CL qualifiers? When else do you suggest we ever sell him?

If its after we have qualified for the group stages, that only leaves 3 or 4 days to get a new replacement in, from a club that will know we have cash to burn?

Plus everyone on here would be in meltdown mode if we sold our best striker a couple of weeks before the CL group stage.

Just to say I don't see him going for the usual 10-12m in January but I am not blinkered enough to think the board wouldn't accept a very large bid(my estimation 15-20m) if it came in, in January.

Again, we buy in January.
His replacement will be bedded in before we sell him - at a time that suits us.

We have failed to buy before selling in the past, what's different now? When we lost Hooper we dicked around for years trying to replace before Griffiths came along.

We bought VVD to play alongside Wilson before he decided to leave, so that wasn't a replacement bought up front as such.

I just don't see where your pulling that strategy from? Yes it makes sense to us fans but the board have never really done it that way in the past.

Can clearly see that.
I think we'll see quite a lot of movement in January, but Moussa & other important players won't be amongst them.
Deadwood out, potentials on loan & around 2 quality players in.

If he continues the way he is we will get more than £25m. If we don't the board should be held acountable. Scottish Football or not.

He is now one of the most sought after players in Europe and his stock will go through the roof even further in the next few years. If he gets a French call up and keeps banging the goals in Europe you can take the league out the equation.

He said sold mate, must be Hooper but ML got the year wrong.

Only reason Hooper went on the cheap was because he had one year left on his contract.
