Looking for you're expert opinion guys (you know who you are ?)
If Manny goes in the summer how much would you expect we would get for him?
The follow up being would we go for Luke Graham as replacement or cast a wider net?

People saying 30m and stuff are miles off. But it's a buyers market. If it goes to a bidding war, could go above 15, possibly edging towards 20 with adds on.

I don't think he'll leave in the summer, not for the price we'd be expecting anyway. When Bassey left, we'd just lost a European Cup final on penalties, beating some top teams along the way. Fernandez still has a long way to go to justify a big money move. I suspect we'll therefore have him for next season at least before hopefully a big money move.

I tend to agree with your valuation, Herewego55. ? That wouldn't be far away imo mate. ?

He's better than Bassey in so many ways! So it's more than £22m.
His style of play is also more marketable than Bassey. He's better on the ball by a considerable distance.
£30 plus add ons (£35m).
Anything else is weak! I expect the Americans will be tough to deal with, which has been missing for decades.
Win the title, and your price.
You are way off, Herewego.

Anyone itk, know what Peterborough get in any transfer?

If Fernandez had pace, 30m wouldn't be out the question.

It's all well trying to put a monetary value on a developing player, but most are invariably incorrect. Fans and media, I feel we keep him for at least another year, then let's see how he develops and if that brings a decent reward for the club. ?

Bassey more of an all rounder. Bassry worth more imo.

Thanks, guys, appreciate your input to my limited knowledge.
Who do you think or would like to replace him if he did go?
07 Apr 2026 09:50:28
Rangers want to keep him for at least one more year, but they do expect their resolve to be tested in the summer by teams from top 5 leagues, according to Rangers Review.
Personally I'd want to see him at Champs League level if I'm a club in the top 5 leagues, but that also inflates his price if he performs well and continues to play for Nigeria.

He isn't remotely close to being as good as Bassey, who has performed to a great level in EPL. He can become better than him, yes, but he isn't as good as him right now.
I would agree with HWG55 valuation.

It was performance in Europe as well as versatility that vastly boosted Bassey's value. Manny isn't there yet, but should be next year, hopefully.
07 Apr 2026 11:00:37
The type of money we would be looking for can only come from one of the big five leagues. I still think Manny is too raw and has one or two mistakes in him to command a massive fee, but then again Van Dijk sometimes makes mistakes now that he's getting on a bit. Starting bid £17m plus add-ons. ?♂️

I'd be trying to keep Fernandez for next season, he's got everything for a modern CB, he has got some pace, BigDado, it will be 20m plus, it's all top clubs interested in him.

Bar 72 Peterborough has inserted a 25% sell on if Manny gets sold by Rangers.
