Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Porto just signed somebody for 20 million, our models are very different.
I'm fairly sure they don't get anywhere near the full transfer fee when they sell a player either.
The agents involved will no doubt be linked with a number of clubs and money will change hands routinely. A bit like Joao Mario who went to Inter for over £40m :lol:

It came out years ago - they only put a percentage of the fee up and only get the same from anything that they make. Think it was the Falcao loan that brought it out.

According to Craig Burley he's gone in the summer.

Was nice knowing you, Moussa :cry:

Hard to see him staying his full contract.I think he will stay one more year ...Then next summer it will be a pick of whoever he wants.

Burley's comments in full

He told ESPN: "Scottish football is quite embarrassing at the moment in terms of the standard but he is head and shoulders [above the rest].

"He’s a good player and is young. Chelsea, I’m hearing, are the favourites [to sign him].

"Talking to one or two guys I know back in Scotland, they said he is pretty much nailed on to go to Chelsea and possibly for around £40m."

What an utter arsepiece

It also conclusively proves that Burley knows f all about Celtic or Dembele. He doesn't want to go to an EPL club.

If anyone thinks for a millisecond that the board will let him run down his contract you must be new supporters to the club :cuckoo:

We all want him to stay but there is not a hope in hell Moussa will be allowed to run down his contract. He will be offered improved terms in the next year or so but if he knocks them back he will be sold.

Champions League qualification or not we all know how the strategy works. He won't be allowed to leave for free.
I agree. I can't think of any example in the Lawwell era of us allowing the contract of a prolific and highly sought after striker to be run down.

Anyone who truly believes that Moussa will be here for 4 years are I'm afraid, off their heads. I'm hoping for another year or so.

Ah well Henrik did it? Took someone long enough to mention it.

Our stategy at that time wasn't the one we have adopted now so you can't compare the two. Bring players in young and develop them for healthy profit is our current model. It wasn't the model back then.

I hope Moussa stays for the 4 years but there's not a hope in hell he will be allowed to run his contract down. None whatsoever.

He's absolutely allowed to run his contract down. No one can stop him. :ponder:

Our model has significantly changed since Rodgers came in. I'd still be surprised at him running his contract down however, more because I think if he's willing to stay for 4 more years he'd get a bigger contract somewhere along the line.

I'd happily accept him leaving on a free after seeing out his 4 years with us.

No one is saying he can't. Certainly not me but if a club wants to cash in on a player 99% of the time they will. And we will. It's just a matter of when.

Here we have our greatest ever asset and people think he will be walking away in 4 years for heehaw? Aye ok.

Really hope that's true. If we do eventually sell him I'd probably rather it was to one of the really big German/Spanish/Italian teams.

:suspect: Henrick at least seemed to support the good ghuys. I would bet that Declan doesn't
