Fernandes and Raskin have both been subject to bids by English teams.
Raskin premiership
Fernandes West Ham.
14 and 15 million respectively. In for a busy summer folks.

Good info, Union Jack.
26 Jun 2026 15:49:29
Raskin always wanted to go to the EPL. He has never hidden that fact. If the bid came from Chelsea he would already be away.
26 Jun 2026 15:51:25
Not enough for Fernandes. Will also get more for Raskin.
26 Jun 2026 16:04:28
I've not heard anything from the West Ham end about Fernandez. I see some stuff on X by African accounts, but the podcast I subscribe to on Patreon with Ex WHU, who's the most accurate in all news WHU, has not mentioned him.
26 Jun 2026 16:09:24
Honestly don't think he would do very well in England. Far more suited to Italian football.
26 Jun 2026 16:09:28
Peterbourgh have a hefty sell on, so for us to make any kinda decent money on Fernandez it needs to be £20m minimum, £14m ain't going to cut it as Posh will be expecting about £4m and we paid £3.5m for him.
26 Jun 2026 16:10:52
Raskin will never play for Chelsea.
26 Jun 2026 16:17:32
20% on profit, is it not we will owe Peterborough?
26 Jun 2026 16:19:28
It's not just the costs associated with the Fernandez transfer fee and sell-on that is the issue. A player of similar quality would need to be purchased to replace him. That might sound easy in theory, but it's not.
Remember when we sold Bassey, then replaced him with two big money duds in Yilmaz and Davies? That can happen again.
We, at last, have a Cb with some talent after years of searching. I'd like him to stay a while.
26 Jun 2026 16:27:52
Another 10 for many and 3/4 for Raskin, I think, is needed before we would sell.
26 Jun 2026 16:30:36
Agreed, Wishy, he wouldn't get on the bench for Chelsea.
26 Jun 2026 16:37:27
Chelsea Womens?

He's also a few years too old for their transfer model. Any player his age they will sign will be of a far better quality than Nico.
He's still got a good future ahead of him. I hope he goes and does well. If I was him, I would be going to Atalanta not Hull.
26 Jun 2026 16:39:44
If he goes for £14M and we paid £3.5, even if Posh want £4M, that is a 100% profit in a year. I would settle for that with every signing we make tbh.
26 Jun 2026 17:02:17
Did we not only pay 1.5m for Fernandez, the other 2m was add ons?
26 Jun 2026 17:05:24
Bigtrfc75, it's 20% of any profit, is it not?
So, even if it was 14m, Peterbrough would get 2.1m; it would be 20% of 10.5m profit.
26 Jun 2026 17:28:04
It's a 350% profit in a year, Angus. There are 2 of our better players. Needs to be more than that. Hoping Big Jim's got the foot down saying there's no pressure to sell. It will be difficult to replace them. If you think of every transfer window we've ever had, how many years do we get a big sale? So this is good, hopefully bids increase quite a bit.
Good thing is, I think things are going to change for the better. I think better times are coming. At last. Our CEO gives me confidence based on how the manager switch was handled.
26 Jun 2026 17:40:00
Big money made is great. But two of our best players will be gone and big money will need to be spent trying to replace them, which isn't always guaranteed.
