cambridgeshire canary 6,680 Posted January 4, 2022 Now that's what we call a good deal for a recent title winner and England international! Wonder what kind of silly wages they have tempted him with then, 200 grand a week or so? Guess money really does talk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder what kind of silly wages they have tempted him with then, 200 grand a week or so? Guess money really does talk. He's a full back who turns 32 this year, which explains why the fee looks low. Obviously Newcastle aren't bothered by the lack of resale value and are just happy to spend big on short term signings to stay up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,412 Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) That's €15M to not £15M so even less. Edited January 4, 2022 by Greavsy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youre not far out - £12.52 according to a google converter. If you were from Norfolk you could have worked that out only using 2 hands! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's Character Forming 1,160 Posted January 4, 2022 Key points are age 32 so no resale value, and his contract runs out next year, both dramatically push down the fee . So looks pretty much a sensible transfer price for a full back. people need to always look at these before saying whether a fee looks high or low, it’s impossible to say until you know the age and time left on the contract. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny Foggo 1,116 Posted January 4, 2022 Proven international with previous Premiership experience, he will improve their defence unfortunately. A good signing for them and not great news for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spencer 1970 207 Posted January 4, 2022 He is 31 BTW. It's still pretty decent but he wasn't a regular starter this season and is now off Athleticos wage bill. A win/win I reckon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Newtopia 517 Posted January 4, 2022 The transfer fee is low, and looks to be the new market level. Patterson is a full international and moving to Everton for a similiar fee. I hope I am wrong but looks like Max will not attach the fee we hoped, although we might get a useful player or two for very little cash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,738 Posted January 4, 2022 Let them buy themselves out of trouble. The last thing we want would be them coming down with us. Watford and Burnley would probably be as favourable as we could hope for Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
