Boycie Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Has he really signed it? We need to see the contract, it might be smoke and mirrors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 this proves there is no contract/agreement for him to go currently in the summer, means at the very least we will get more money best case he is staying, no doubt somebody on here will find bad news in this though!

rad1919 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 This is nothing more than a pre-agreed 1 year extension triggered by his 18th birthday. I don't see how this changes anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 sadly this doesn't mean anything will have changed. This wouldn't have involved his representative/dad/agent* (delete as applicable) sitting around the table thrashing out new terms and a commitment to stay longer. This was part of the last contract to give him a payrise upon turning 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well previously he was only signed until 2015, now he has signed until 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eranio20 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Great news, really didn't expect him to be here next season. Now hopefully Brayford signing is around the corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Why has he had to put pen to paper then if this was only a clause in a contract he had already signed? because one of the parties with the option has to action the clause in writing. He wouldn't get his payrise otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Teale Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 More money when we sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'd be happy if we sold for a decent fee with a season loan back and first refusal on any additional loans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForceIndy Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 This is good news either way! He might stay or go, with this extension the valuation of Hughes has now gone up! As the bidder will have to pay more to DCFC to buyout his contract. I still think he will be leaving in the summer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rezner Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 It's great news,now,can we have someone upfront for him to pass to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randombc Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Either way this is great news, if no team comes in for him we've got him for another 3 years and if a team does, they'll have to pay a decent fee, not with a case such as Brayford who will be going for a reduced price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stive Pesley Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 This is something that would have happened anyway when he turned 18 – it's just the club desperately trying to spin it as good news Notice how his contract extends until the end of 2016 but Nigel's quote only says "we look forward to seeing him here for the next 12 months" Read into that what you will, but it does nothing to play down the rumours that we're selling him in the summer with a season-long loan back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
