It’s a good point

But given this move seems to be driven by Idah wanting game time rather than us wanting to sell, I don’t think we should accept less than £5m right now

We've rejected a €3.5m buy option for Idah from Verona (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 30, 11:58:43
- Presumably that’s linked to the cost of the four years remaining on his contract? (NCFC) - Old Git, Jan 30, 13:23:55
- Just get them to up the sell on. If he turns out to be great we get more (n/m) (NCFC) - Knitted Jesus, Jan 30, 12:56:55
- Loan to buy? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 30, 12:04:02
  - Yep. I'd have thought £5m was about right (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 30, 12:05:48
    - He has scored 7 this season .., (NCFC) - loz, Jan 30, 12:24:43
      - 17 goals in 115 appearances also isn't great (n/m) (NCFC) - maidstoneyellow, Jan 30, 14:23:51
        
        How many starts only 30 or so isn’t it ?? (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Jan 30, 14:25:41
        
        There is a reason for that (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 30, 14:27:20
        
        I agree but a young striker that’s still scored 7… (NCFC) - loz, Jan 30, 14:47:05
        
        Value is reduced by the fact that he’s on a long contract which they’ll have to match (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Git, Jan 30, 14:54:21
        
        Or we pay up the difference, but the economics are the same (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 30, 15:12:07
        
        Right - what would you say that value is? (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 30, 14:48:24
    - It’s a good point (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 30, 12:14:18
- Good that club are keeping paddy in loop again… (NCFC) - loz, Jan 30, 12:01:47
  - Paddy initially rejected this whole transfer when it first came out (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Jan 30, 12:13:42
    - And the Varane one, at least in terms of this window (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 30, 12:14:29
      - I wonder if his source is Wagner? (NCFC) - Trent_Canary, Jan 30, 12:18:44
        
        I would think it’s more that the club just tell paddy what they want put out there (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 30, 12:21:09
