colneycanary 0 Posted June 18, 2009 How much do you think Sammy Clingan is worth? He''s only got 1 year left on his contract and wants to leave, so probably for the best we sell him. Lee Clark says he thinks he''s good enough for the Premiership. Clubs reported chasing him are Coventry, Cardiff and Sheffield Wednesday that we know of. If he is good enough for the Prem, he has to be worth 2 million+. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crafty Canary 490 Posted June 18, 2009 Working on the premise that Clingan wants to play in the premiership, why would he sign for any of these clubs? He''s one season from being a free agent which will make him even more attractive to premiership clubs of the likes of Fulham, Bolton etc. What benefit is there to tieing himself into a 2,3 year contract with clubs probably not good enough to gain promotion from the Championship (Cardiff possibly excepted)? Stay here which will put City under even more pressure to accept bids in January and instruct his agent to seek out premiership suitors would seem a better prospect for him.value? £ 1- 1.5 million I''d have thought unless there is a bidding war for him but i don''t see that as being very likely.

JuanVelasco 27 Posted June 18, 2009 About £1m because of the contract situation.About £2m otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the stump 0 Posted June 18, 2009 i reckon anything between 1 million and 1.5 million would be about right i hope he stays but i cant see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul ncfc 0 Posted June 18, 2009 Clingan has to be sold now, with just a year on his contract we cannot afford to let him go for nothing next summer. Hopefully with a few clubs interested we may get up to 1.5M, but anything over 1M will be good business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted June 18, 2009 can''t be worth much more than £1m given the current circumstances Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
james norwich 0 Posted June 18, 2009 He was one of few successes for us - easily worth £1.25M - bet he leaves for an undisclosed fee which will be nearer £750K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HappyhammerAndy 0 Posted June 18, 2009 Per 18/6/09 at 16.38 pmYou probably know all this but I was looking through Eatsleep.sport for a West Ham article and saw this. I''ve copied it across perhaps there''s something new in it for you? Canaries assistant manager Ian Butterworth has said the club are prepared to listen to offers for Sammy Clinghan. The25-year-old has been heavily linked with a move away from Carrow Roadfollowing Norwich''s relegation to League One last season and with justone year left on his contract Bryan Gunn''s side could be forced tosell. Sheffield Wednesday are the latest club to be linkedwith a move for Clingan but may have to move quick with the Canariesreported to be considering a part exchange offer of £1million plusstriker Robbie Simpson from Coventry.Butterworth has now comeout and said there is no shortage of clubs interested in the midfielderand says Norwich are ready to consider any offers they receive for him."I think Sammy''s an excellent player and he could play at a higher level," said Butterworth."Bryanhad a chat with players at the end of the season and wanted to know howtheir feelings were towards Norwich City, so those conversations areprivate between the manager and the player. But we have had a lot ofinterest in Sammy and one or two other players. We''ll have to see whatis the best thing for Norwich City and take it from there."Youlike to think you''ll be able to keep Sammy Clingan but if he expresseshis wishes to play elsewhere, what do you do? You try to help him onhis way and get the best deal for Norwich City." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But obviously it''s a mil + wages and the club simply can''t afford to gamble so much on one player. Ah well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chunky Norwich 0 Posted June 18, 2009 Becasuse of our league position, financial troubles and him having a year left on his contract, I''d say £500k - £750k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Foxy is a Pleasure 0 Posted June 19, 2009 I''d say all things in consideration £1m but if the club has any sense they will put some decent clauses in for promotion, appearances, sell-on etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeagle 0 Posted June 19, 2009 £500k in my opinion, I wouldnt think many teams would pay much more for someone who is out of contract in a year. He can start talking to other teams in 6 months! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
