Not sure if that was made clear in the thread, but if it was then I missed it. it could have been the Lyon offer that was rejected in Jan?

TGAA_Star Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Then now that Monchengladbach is out of the running, you still have Borussia Dortmund, Leipzig and Leverkeusen there. Bayern Munich don't need David. Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really realistically will they? They will probably want to go for a cheaper option and all David and his agent had to do was accept the deal and he would be on a Bundesliga squad.

I mean how many Bundesliga squads are going to spend more than that especially with this economy being the way it is right now because of the pandemic Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you haven't have you? Look, I am just as much surprised as you that Gent turned down 25 million euros for David, especially considering the expectation that player valuations should be lower post-pandemic. However, if Monchengladbach planned on spending no more than 25 million they should have put in an initial bid of 18 or 19 million. They never did this, so either the Germans don't know how to negotiate (unlikely) or their max offer will be north of 25 million. That said, the article I posted was speculating that BM offered 23 million back in January. All the talk here is about a recent 25 million bid, which I must have missed, but whatever. Assuming it is true and details are not getting mixed up, this would be Gladbach's second offer that was rejected, which may change things slightly. Nonetheless, if Monchengladbach really want David, are they going to drop out of the race over a couple extra million? I think Gent has all the leverage here. By the way, it is not down to "Jonathan's own stupidity". He has no control over whether Gent accept or refuse an offer. This is Gent turning away BM, not David or his agent.

Monchengladbach will sign someone else. The 25 million is the transfer fee, not what they're offering David. The negotiation is between Gladbach and Gent, so it's not David's to accept or decline. That's a separate negotiation. Edited June 23, 2020 by Aird25 Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that the club, i.e. the contract holder, is who dictates the transfer fee do you not?

sebdeserio Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Reportedly David is linked to Lille, who are rumoured to be selling Their striker Osimhen to Napoli for 70! million. A lot of ifs, but seems that this could happen, especially if the sale of Osimhen goes through. I'd say that after Leipzig this would be one of his best options. johnyb, Cblake, Obinna and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a stacked attack to join. Very difficult squad to break into though for an attacking player. Risky but very high upside.

He scored 12 goals in 25 games 2 season ago in Belgium... David just scored 18 in 27. Good business for Lille of happens. Cblake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGAA_Star Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 But then if he goes to Lille, they will get to add another Canadian to their squad. I mean Brym is there but he's out on loan to Belenenses...but if Brym comes back to Lille after his loan spell ends and you add David there, then that of course is good.

Brym hasn't been on loan with Belenenses SAD in ages. He's moving to Belgium on loan soon. Shway and Cblake 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
