Fee agreed for bassey. €22m euros. Under £20m. Another player sold for vastly under their value. Star asset gone. Well done ross wilson.
16 Jul 2022 19:36:07
If theirs a sell on which Ajax (apparently don't do) it's very good business lol.
Realistically Bassey wants to go it's Ajax. This is a chance for him to end up in a top 6 team in England in 2 seasons time.
6 months ago he was back up left back. A year ago he wasnt even making the bench.
16 Jul 2022 19:37:27
It's actually under 19m at the current ForEx. Before everyone starts defending wilson, with the teams interested it was an easy 25m. 25m for bassey and aribo is beyond criminal.
16 Jul 2022 19:38:16
Great price, fantastic business again.
16 Jul 2022 19:38:47
Your embarrassing it’s a club record fee never try and run a business because you would go bust ??.
16 Jul 2022 19:39:20
Ross Wilson has played a blinder big Shirley had a good 2 months.
16 Jul 2022 19:40:22
Before Wilson we were getting ****al for our players.
16 Jul 2022 19:42:59
Hahahahahahah we literally signed him for a total cost of £300k. Indeed well done Ross Wilson, making that amount of profit on a player
. What I will say is I wouldn’t be surprised if Romano changes the fee from € to £ he regularly gets mixed up with them while reporting on UK Transfers from European clubs.
16 Jul 2022 19:44:49
Heart and Hand reporting £19m upfront with add ons + Sell on fee.
Sack Ross Wilson right now….
16 Jul 2022 19:46:14
€5m in add ons and a 10% sell on. Not the worst deal with details being shown but was still an easy £25m up front to get.
16 Jul 2022 19:48:47
230k we paid for him and we are getting 18.7 million pounds for him some fans are clueless they really obviously Brighton didn’t offer enough and the rest of the interest is Man U and arsenal were Bs as Man U just bought Centre half and left back and arsenal buying a left back.
It’s an outstanding deal for our club.
16 Jul 2022 19:49:44
TJ show do you know that interest was real.
16 Jul 2022 19:53:57
22 million euros with 5 million add on fee with 10% sell on apparently.
16 Jul 2022 19:55:23
Ajax not doing add ons and sell ons is nonsense.
16 Jul 2022 19:55:24
Ajax not doing add ons and sell ons is nonsense.
16 Jul 2022 19:55:42
If somebody had said 6 months ago we'd be getting 22 million for bassey i'd have thought they were nuts, bassey you're correct, he's had a few good months.
16 Jul 2022 19:56:52
It’s actually 27 million euro heart and hand reporting 5 million in adds on . your trying to slag Ross Wilson some fans are actually deluded.
16 Jul 2022 19:59:29
Why do people think football clubs do bidding wars? ?
It's not like Ajax come in and rangers go anyone higher than 20mill? Did I hear 21mill?
The fact that talks are this quick after 2 days shows that Ajax are really the only party that are willing to meet rangers demands.
16 Jul 2022 20:00:39
Tjrfc, we didn't get 6 million for Aribo, it was a 10 million deal, good money for a player in his last year contract.
16 Jul 2022 20:05:20
£25m easy to get? You do realise very rarely transfers at the price range aren’t paid up front.
16 Jul 2022 20:07:51
If this is £19M it's very, VERY poor.
16 Jul 2022 20:10:07
Superb business Tjr.
16 Jul 2022 20:10:31
Patterson up to 16 million brought in (only played a handful of games)
Gerrard 3 million made (for a manager)
Aribo up to 10 million (last year of contract and obviously wanted to leave)
Itten just over 1 million (benchwarmer)
Bassey 18 to 22 million (solid few months)
Initial outlay for all of those was under 3 million and we’ve now made around 50 million.
Hang your head in shame Ross Wilson.
16 Jul 2022 20:11:15
Tjr sin archive you say after st mirren game he should never play for us again,
16 Jul 2022 20:12:57
Tjrfc you're embarrassing. Also. star asset? He's not even played 40 games for the club. His ceiling is very high buts that's incredible business. Easy £25m? I'm looking forward to you announcing your next role as Director of Football at a huge club. You could probably do it part time as well.
16 Jul 2022 20:16:20
Trueblue he’s played 65 times for us, he’s probably the star asset in the sense that he could command the highest transfer fee but yes £25m upfront doesn’t happen in many transfers.
16 Jul 2022 20:21:23
Paterson, 12 million plus 4 million addons. Sell on
Aribo 10 million package alleged 30% sell on
Bassey 27 million euros includes add on and a sell on
Bassey equates to 23 million pounds.
Players cost less than 600k. Sold circa 49 million pounds with hopefully some sell ons. Take off add ons 12 million, leaves us 43 million
If this is Wilson short selling us, I hope he keeps it up.
Mb sell 50k kamara for 12 soon.
16 Jul 2022 20:25:39
Good spot John!
16 Jul 2022 20:29:37
Great work Wilson,
Like a few poster have said, huge profit made on 2nd choice RB and now for who was our 2nd choice LB until 5 months ago, if there's add ons and a sell on its even better business.
16 Jul 2022 20:36:09
True blue Bassey 65 games for the gers, u r correct re incredible business.
16 Jul 2022 20:38:53
Lol!
The deal is not as good as it should have been!
Love how so many think they are authoritarian on this! A few disagree and they are deluded, wrong, clueless.
Small Time thinking because of where we were!
The deal isn’t good enough and with so many clubs up for him it’s poor!
Wilson does not cut a good deal when selling!
Good in other ways, p. poor at selling!
16 Jul 2022 20:39:27
Amazing bit off business! I wish him all the best and he has the potential to be world class! ✌️??.
16 Jul 2022 20:46:26
John a lot of fans said he shouldn’t play for us again along with Patterson so maybe not fair to bring that up against someone.
16 Jul 2022 20:47:41
Bassey1 I have just checked heart and hand and it’s 22 with the add ons jot 27.
16 Jul 2022 20:50:53
Deal has been changed 22m euros with 5m euros add ons and a 10% sell on fee, 27m euros is a good deal, exchange rate says £23m.
16 Jul 2022 20:52:58
This is a good deal. We've held on to too many players who have now lost their peak value (Kent, Morelos, Barisic) . A player is only worth what someone is willing to pay.
16 Jul 2022 20:56:58
Whoever buys Bassey will have a sell on or we would accept a smaller offer with the sell on. I think Bassey has everything to go and improve. Can see this lad having a huge career.
16 Jul 2022 21:26:58
Gutted it looks like he is away. Let’s hope Bazoer deal gets done now and we need another left back. Tymon seems to be the preferred option.
16 Jul 2022 21:49:34
john heart and hand said sakala had a knock so that's why he missed the game so he's staying i am relieved.
16 Jul 2022 22:00:54
Tjrfc just seems ro want to bash ross wilson. We have sold a player for 22 or 27m dependant on who you listen too a player we signed for what 30k a player who has had a good 6 months yet tjrfc thinks that's bad business and wilson should be flogged. Give yourself a day off. A player is only worth what others will pay for them. If we said no and let him enter his final year it could have been another aribo. Its a fantastic bit of business and if we git that on most of our players I'd be more that happy.
16 Jul 2022 22:01:15
Tjr has got to be on the wind up seriously. If you don't think anything north of 19 million with add ons is good business you must be absolutely mad.
16 Jul 2022 22:18:11
Mark we didn’t get 10 for aribo it’s 6 million up front with 4 on ad ons and a sell on clause.
16 Jul 2022 22:25:49
The boy hasn't had a full season of first team football under his belt yet. He was great for us for around half the season and cost 300 grand. This is an incredible bit of business for the club. Let's see how this affects our incomings now.
16 Jul 2022 22:38:55
GDog how is it a poor deal.
16 Jul 2022 22:46:59
Gdog who’s all the teams up for him
? because only two bud Brighton at 12 million and Ajax for what we are getting it’s a great deal if you think you can do better tell rangers you want Wilson’s job.
16 Jul 2022 22:47:06
How is making a potential £20m+ profit on a player who nobody could agree on what his best position actually was equate to poor business?
We have been living off loans and handouts for years just to get to this position.
17 Jul 2022 00:42:04
OK Storm! ? would love his job. The deal is weaker than it could have been!
The clubs listed were more than two. It’s clear we’ve gone the Ajax way because perhaps Bassey has said he would prefer that move. I would understand ( if true ) that Wilson would be keen to ensure the lad is happy!
I’m tired of repeating myself as most are bored of me. I’m also bored of the same crew thinking they are gospel on here.
It OK to disagree! This site would be as gash as Wilson’s selling skills if everyone agreed. Although a right good few would prefer it that way!
17 Jul 2022 08:31:31
Thanks Copland - I'm using duff stats! He can certainly secure the highest fee, but I think we have players who we would miss more if they left, or players harder to replace - Morelos for sure. I always think of star asset as the player who had the most value to the team on the pitch rather than they one you can sell for the most.
17 Jul 2022 08:45:44
GDog - Wilson got the world record transfer fee for a defender when at Southampton.
17 Jul 2022 10:18:06
Storm not in my opinion re bringing it up, he is very good at running down Wilson
Storm u r 100% correct on only two teams made bids.
I belyou r accurate re 12 million by Brighton, who indicated they would not go above 15.
