Thecanaryfan 0 Posted August 28, 2015 Sorry if this has been shared already but I couldn''t see it. Sky Sports nailed this one. What a player Redmond is becoming.http://www.skysports.com/transfer/news/22706/9966826/nathan-redmond-at-norwich-city-how-alex-neil-helped-him-improve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant Holts Moustache 113 Posted August 28, 2015 Good article, why couldn''t sky hold off until Tuesday. We don''t need everyone knowing how good he is until after the window is closed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted August 28, 2015 With only 2 years left on his contract I really worry that Norwich will lose Redmond relatively cheaply next summer. Hopefully there will be some good news regarding this soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,616 Posted August 28, 2015 [quote user="Bethnal Yellow and Green"]With only 2 years left on his contract I really worry that Norwich will lose Redmond relatively cheaply next summer. Hopefully there will be some good news regarding this soon.[/quote]Luckily he''ll be under 24 when his contract expires, so we''ll still have a little bit of power as we know we can''t lose him on a free (unless he goes abroad). Well, we have more power than we would if he was 25, anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buh 0 Posted August 28, 2015 I think they''ll tie Redmond to a new contract pretty soon.- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted August 28, 2015 True, but compensation levels are a bit of a joke, £5m for Ings shows that, it is also partly determined by how much of the player development was carried out at the club.Birmingham will be due a large chunk of whatever money Norwich get in compensation.

Fuzzar 1,861 Posted August 28, 2015 I guess this is the sort of situation where a buy out for clause is inserted to keep both parties happy with a new contract? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted August 28, 2015 You would hope so Buh, I know his agent(s) were are Carrow Road for the Stoke game. His main agent is the same as Mark Cavendish''s.You would imagine it was a top priority after the play-off final though and nothing seems to have been agreed yet, hopefully the ''i''s are being dotted and the ''t''s crossed.I worry about minimum fee release clauses as it is hard to predict how the market will go after the new TV deal. Norwich might go for a £25m level thinking that is high, when it turns out to be the new average price for a Championship striker! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Balanced and mature though Redmond appears to be, he''d want assurances before signing a long-term deal. He''s not going to tie himself down for another four-or-more years without such a clause - he''s shown loyalty to us already, but any combination of senior England caps, relegation, Neil leaving or a big-bucks offer from a top six side would surely be enough for him to (quite reasonably) seek pastures new. Either way, it''s imperative that we get him to sign on the dotted line as a matter of urgency. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lessingham Canary 108 Posted August 28, 2015 Reading the article, he seems (like so many of our players, Lewis apart maybe) to have so much respect for Alex Neil, that if anyone can convince him to commit to a longer contract then its Sir Alex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
York Canary 29 Posted August 28, 2015 Nathan Redmond is one of the most level-headed players we have. I have no worries about his contract being sorted tbh. As the article says, the best place for him is with us and Alex Neil. If AN leaves, then I will worry! Lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant Holts Moustache 113 Posted August 28, 2015 His Mum seems to be a big influence on him and helps keep his feet on the ground. Am sure he would be talking to her about the best way forward in his career. Maybe send her some flowers, show her hoe much he is loved here and get her to have a word with him to nudge him in the right direction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
