Comrade 86 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Dear Serdar, I've just spoken with our current and prospective new owners and am delighted to inform you that your contact is now in place. With so many flights from Germany to the UK we'd be obliged if you could pack your boots, toothbrush and whatever else you can fit into your hand luggage on hurry on over, as despite our wealth of goal scoring attackers, we feel we might be able to squeeze you into the squad for Saturday's game. Much love, 86 Schmokes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 I can only assume we were/are up to the very limits of FFP in the summer. If not, we should have just paid the money. Gaspode and therealhantsram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just needs to have moved to Derby by the end of this year. If a transfer is happening, that's not a problem, and then he has until end June to apply for "pre-settled status".

Can you imagine moving to the UK, living here legally but the transfer cannot be ratified because his player licence cannot be transferred until after Jan 1st.

Why wouldn't it be ratified if he was already living legally in the UK so he meets the criteria? Sound like a clever Mel move to me. Edit: Of course the club could rent him a house. If the deal didn't go through, it's no great hardship to go back to Germany. Nothing lost. Edited December 11, 2020 by Carl Sagan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change of employer hasn't moved. He is still employed in Germany until the 1st January and any EU signing has to go through the new permit process as they come into effect on the 1st January. So by your process he can come and live here, but he can't change employer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plymouthram Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Was he not a player that Cocu wanted, is it possible that other targets may have been placed higher on the clubs recruitment list? With him scoring well, over in Germany, as his value gone up, beyond our budget. I personally think this one is not going to happen. I would rather see the club take on a player who is going to adapt straight away into English (Championship) style football. Lets gamble, go for Kevin Nisbet up in Scotland.
