Arsenal, Barcelona, Liverpool, Man City and Man Utd interest in January move for Hughes many sources

[G STAR RAM]

Lets be honest anyone could post on a forum that they have heard we are going to sell Will Hughes and it is most likely going to be true before the end of the season.

Could we buy a Will-a-like and a new defence for 7m?

[North_Stand_Ram]

7 million up front is good business

In this case it's the mod who's posted this 'information'. I believe he was also in on the Chris Porter deal as well. A more recent example would be when he revealed Cardiff's original interest in Brayford.

Exactly. And anyone could say about £7m, and then swerve actual figures with add-ons.

Would be very interesting to know who his source is as them deals cover two periods with different CEO/management.

 

Not saying its not true but I imagine, unless it was part of the Wisdom deal, that Derby would want the public to know when enquiries/bids had been made to turn it into an auction and get the best price possible.

 

To accept the first bid that came in would be suicidal in my opinion.

Yep.

 

3-3,5 mills to 4 defenders. And couple to midfielder.

There's still room for agents and other fees.

[NormantonRam]

nevertheless 

 

I'd be more than happy with 7,000,000 up front. 

 

 

Not me boss, that's way too low when players like Gayle have gone for 6 million plus add ons, Zaha for 15 million, Hughes can play across the Midfield and is a future England player.

[Leicester Ram]

B4's going to be very angry

The add-ons would have to be very good but if they are, then £7 million up front is something to consider

As long as Callum Ball stays he'll be reet

[SuperSheep]

I couldn't care less how much he gets sold for.

I just care about how much we can spend!!!

Couldn't agree more. That's the big test for us now, to back SM.

[Rich3478]

I'd want more than £7m, surely starting a bidding war seems the better way to go than accepting the first bid?

that'll be whatever is left once the losses have been balanced for FFP without the owners poutting in any equity

£8m loss last year means if it is repeated this year and Hughes sells for £10 million we will have £5m left to spend (putting us at the permitted £3m losses for the year)

7 million is the figure people were suggesting last January, he now has more experience under his belt and so I think he should be worth 10 mil+.

[McRamFan]

He's off to Liverpool we get £7m Wisdom and Suarez, plus Liverpool keep paying Suarez'z wages for 3 years

The only problem being that since January he has been injured or quite average.

Lets get realistic about the price £5-7m would be an outstanding price for potential. That's all they'll be  buying

I'd say he's proven himself as a quality player though already. He has potential to be a world-class player but he's already demonstrated he's a well-rounded, talented midfielder with promise to become a top player for a premier league team, hence my valuation of 10 mil+.
