Offer received for Youan

[Bambino]

Seems about to leave. Both BBC and EEN reporting this afternoon £2.5m.

We rejected a bid in January for him but I think now his times done at the club.

Decent return on the player but should/could have been more.

 

[Osmosis]

According to bbc site, French league 1 club

Ah, I think it sounds sensible, but I'll be sad when he goes

Correct, though we shouldn’t say no to that offer.

 

[Hammi]

Hard to turn that down, especially if he wants to go now.

Shame.

Onwards we go, few more pennies to spend.

£2.5M a decent bit of business on the face of it. A £1.8-2M profit in the space of a year depending on reports. Does leave us with a big hole to fill in terms of creative players though.

Does that now mean we have a £10M summer war chest? £2.5 for Youan the £5M Foley dosh plus our usual summer budget

Doesn’t say how much

 

[Hibs Soldier]

I'd hold out for more but it seems there may be a clause on £2.5million.

 

[Greenmachine]

No surprise.

 

[Osmosis]

Did you copy my post Bambino???

Ach, I know what you mean but he did us a turn. Most notably at the PBS and made us a few quid. Best of luck to the boy

Good player despite criticisms. Would rather have two of him than most of that current squad. Now to replace our primary goal threat, I have every faith in Hibs...

Aye 10 million - we could get another Bushiri for that

 

[Yogi B83]

It’s a pity we couldn’t keep him for a third season but I’d be happy with this becoming a theme for Hibs with say one player leaving each season after 3 with us and generating a bit of cash to be reinvested retaining others / bringing in more. It keeps the squad fresh, helps promote the clubs to others on our hit list and this last bit is still to come, but hopefully it is progressive for us too in being in a bit of a continuous improvement loop.

 

[Yogi B83]

Also how good would it be if this cash landed us Maolida?

That would be excellent.

Sadly I don’t think he is coming back, going by his farewell message, can see him moving onto better things.

Yep has now said he doesn't think he'll be back at Hibs. We need to move on. There will be other strikers.

 

[Jack K]

Todays reports are the same as we heard 5 days ago.
The suitors will have been told our Director of Football starts work on Monday and we will be in touch.
Hopefully in the meantime Malky is contacting pals in the Championship who might want to make a bigger offer for our player.
2.5 million with no ties and a 20% sell on would be acceptable.

 

[SuperTortolano]

Sad as he's our best player by far. Hopefully the money is invested wisely
