I think he goes to those to avoid compo - a month down the line an English club gets him for £100-250k for Pearson's trouble - english club save £££'s Big Nige and Hirst been doing deals??? Why does Hirst want to avoid "compo"? Edit - for the reason you explained haha Edited June 22, 2018 by Whitechapel Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernOwl Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Can someone explain compo situation. Why do we get less than if he had gone directly to a prem team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcityowlsfan Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Second division football in Belgium. Manufactured move to Leicester to avoid paying compo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 There will be no compensation required. I suspect after a year, maybe more he will be confirmed as a Leicester player. We have been royally screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torres Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 2 minutes ago, pazowl55 said: maybe the case but not like any English club were going to have to pay 5 million for him. Compo would have reached 750k at best. Not £5m no maybe not - but looking at previous youth internationals with no league games behind them it would be over £1m. Leicester can now get him for nothing - plus he could have a year under Pearson to get him - if he scores goals they could have a £5m player for nothing.

Bluesteel Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Raises serious questions again about conflicts. Owning multiple clubs, agents deciding who can move where and “adopting clubs”. Managers and players represented by the same company. Yet people say “you can’t argue with a loop hole”. Isn’t there meant to be a point to developing players and encouraging clubs to do it?

He'll be moved to Leicester in a year's time on 10k a week. Sour grapes from the Hirsts too avoid paying us compo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S72 Owl Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Maybe Chasiri was right not to involve him if this was the plan all along. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcityowlsfan Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 You know I was resigned to losing him but for it to happen this way feels like a betrayal and to have 2 club legends involved or influential in the deal makes it even worse. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

room0035 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I cannot read Belgium but if thats true that is simple classic. Well play for playing the rule and getting a good prospect for next to nothing - I bet DC wishes he took the £2m Leicester offer for him a while back.
