I would much rather keep him, but £30 or £40m is an enourmous amount of cash which would, I believe, be given to the manager to strengthen the squad. That being said, his goals could likely guarantee a similar amount for. CL group stage qualification. Hard for any club to turn down the guaranteed a return of 6,000% in less than a year. Would much prefer the see him keep sk loving the Huns, but would not think the club were stupid if he was sold for silly money |

As much as it would sing in my soul to tell chealsea to gtf, I think 40m will see him there |

In principle I would agree but £30m+ is crazy money, would set the club up for years |

I agree. Loved it for example when Kenny was at the club. The money and replacements never made up for his loss. Easier to get over a Wanyama or Van Dyck, but strikers are a different thing for this club. Also, we've probably wasted about £40 million in transfers and wages for dud strikers. Let us enjoy him for a couple of years, and if it costs us transfer money then so what. The club is more than financially stable. We should let Brendan have the best players possible at his disposal by keeping our stars, because he is the main reason for our current and future success. Edited by Big Jake, 30 Jan 2017, 09:32 PM.

£30m - £40m for a player, that we bought for £0.5m, halfway into his first season, is effing crazy. Only time I've been happy at that godforsaken telly dough down there. |

That's 1 years CL money these days and we're in a far better position to qualify with Dembele in the team. Qualify next season and selling him next summer would be ideal. Might even add a few quid when we reach the quarters. If Celtic say it's £40million then that's the price and nothing less.

I hope he stays. If the amounts being talked about are true though I think it would be harsh to criticise the club if he was sold. Trust BR to sign 4 x £5m players or keep Moussa

I love the guy. He is fantastic and he will go to the very top. 30 million would be a great piece of business as long as Brendan gets the money to spend.

If we at truly being offered in excess of £30m, we have to cash in. |

Two things that worry me. 1. Rodgers blew a lot of the Suarez money on rubbish. 2 We'll be held to ransom by clubs who know we have money to spend. |

They can have him and Gordon for £40m. No problem. Maybe get a loan or two off them in the process. Thank you kindly. |

So an argument someone could make to your point #2 is that it's better to have less money, than have more money but other clubs know you have said extra money?

1. Rodgers panicked when he sold Suarez and did indeed waste money. If he were to authorise the sale of Dembele, he'd take time to replace him.2 . We hold other clubs to ransom when we know they have money. |

Whilst Rodgers had input the final say went to their transfer commitee did it not? Very possible he might not have fancied the players that where bought. Or he could have. I would trust him

I'm with Van Doesburg but why are Chelsea bidding 30 mill ? they can leave him with us get another year hopefully get CL experience and continue to develop as pretty much the main striker and still buy him next season. |

Lads. Will ye all shut up for a minute? £40m. We could buy a dancing rhino for starters. |

If that's the price, and they want him enough they will. I wouldn't be hugely surprised if we got £40m if we sold now. It's a £5-£10 m premium for time of sale, plus them weighing in enough to stop a Madrid say coming in just now. |

If it wasn't for Brendan, Dembele wouldn't be here in the first place, so the decision should be down to Brendan with obviously Dembele having a big say in it. |
