Igamane wasn't one I was aware of being close to a departure but I do know that he isn't the only one expected to leave shortly.
There will be a domino effect of incomings thereafter. Be patient.
26 Jun 2025 10:50:38
If igamane does leave, I believe that a lot of our fans will be disappointed with initial fee. There is no way lille are paying what some have quoted on here.
26 Jun 2025 11:02:00
Just a little reminder that when the Dessers transfer broke, the valuation originally being quoted was 8m Euros.
So I agree OrangeT.
26 Jun 2025 11:07:47
I think the valuation maybe 15 plus and a comparison to dessers is not really a good comparison as his price is downwards due to age and Igamane is upwards due to age and the level he may attain.
26 Jun 2025 11:09:40
Ehl in your opinion how much is iga realistically worth? . Did hope we get nothing less than 15m based on his age potential and the fact he's an international whis scored goals in a euro competition.
26 Jun 2025 11:28:26
Under the previous board we'd have sold igname for 5 million.
This board I'm hopeful will stand their ground on getting top dollar for players.
If he was playing for Celtic he'd be going for over 20 million.
Aberdeen sold a few players for good money over the last few years we need to be demanding 15 million minimum.
He's a international now scored a fair few goals in Europe including a cracking finish against spurs who won the tournament.
He is raw as hell at times yes but he has bags of potential.
26 Jun 2025 11:39:31
OWS, I have said a number of times that I have virtually no idea how to value a player.
I just think the numbers that get banded about in here seem incredibly high - as always though, hopefully I'm wrong.
26 Jun 2025 11:52:34
Igamane is naturally gifted he's so casual on the ball you don't get many players like him he's well worth 20 million.
26 Jun 2025 11:59:07
£12m with sizeable sell on and additional performance based add ons and I would sell.
I know people want £15-20m so would I but just saying if we got £12m upfront and all the add ins and a good sell on I would be happy to sell.
26 Jun 2025 12:11:29
Fifty, that seems more realistic to me.
26 Jun 2025 12:15:05
Igamane would break the Scottish transfer record if he stayed another season, at the moment I would expect 15m, he could end up going for three times that in a year from France to the EPL, he has four years left on contract so no rush to sell unless we get what we want.
26 Jun 2025 12:22:15
Igamane is a bit like Raskin, unless we get offered a ridiculous fee we should keep them and build our new team around them . Fees being quoted might seem ridiculous, but not when you look at what the EPL clubs are paying for average players . Its all relative .
26 Jun 2025 12:22:18
12 plus add ons/ sell on is my reckoning too.
26 Jun 2025 12:25:39
Same club Lille offered us £17million for Alfredo. In my opinion they have to offer the same and we bite there hand off.
26 Jun 2025 12:33:53
If he stayed another year they are no guarantees that he breaks the Scottish transfer record. There no guarantees he is the 1st name striker either.
26 Jun 2025 12:36:37
12m is chronic patter.
Lille offered 16m for morelos 5 years ago who had nowhere near hamza's ability.
4 years left, heavily chased, young and no need to sell.
20m.
12 plus the sell on to FAR would give us under 10m profit.
Time to move on from pathetic ross wilson-esque valuations and starting acting like adults.
26 Jun 2025 12:41:59
I think we should be keeping Hamza, 4 years on his contract, plenty of development, exciting to watch.
However, if we get offered silly money, circa 20M, we should accept this.
26 Jun 2025 12:46:53
Be a huge gamble selling 2 off our 3 strikers unless we have players lined up already i just hope this widow doesn't turn into panic buys at the end off the window
has coady signed seen john an few others saying last night it was done deal.
26 Jun 2025 13:15:07
Struths Morelos on his game was unplayable, agree that Igamane has far more ability, but Morelos was quality when on it.
26 Jun 2025 13:26:09
Quite gutted if Igamane leaves. Another season would have been ideal reckon he would light it up in his second season. If its £20m or thereabouts you can't argue though.
26 Jun 2025 13:31:02
Alex in January the board had set a price off 12 million plus add on and sell on so we're not selling for 5.
26 Jun 2025 13:36:42
I think there are plenty lined up BT.
26 Jun 2025 13:54:57
Feeling the same BigDado, he's only going to improve and would rather he was with is next season, but can't see us knocking that kinda fee back.
26 Jun 2025 14:01:38
We will get 15m euros for iga with a sell on.
26 Jun 2025 14:02:42
Just my opinion, but I suspect any fee for Hamza will be around £10m with £2-3m add ons and a sell on clause. He has bags of potential, but for large parts of last season he wasn't even our first choice number 9. I would prefer to see him stay at least another year and see if he can fulfill his potential, but as always, no guarantees. Clearly, i hope we get as much as we can if he does go.
26 Jun 2025 14:17:54
For everyone saying we need to keep him another year, a cruciate injury, broken leg or hamstring tear and he loses value and we still lose the player - £12m seems low, but it does seem to be a likely valuation with add ons and a hefty sell on fee. It does seem very likely that we won't be seeing him back in a Rangers shirt next season.
26 Jun 2025 14:34:44
Had to laugh, the suns headline was igamane off to European giants, have I woke up in Kansas, there not even one of the big teams in France.
26 Jun 2025 16:06:13
John I was being a bit tongue and cheek with the 5 million.
The previous board though I had absolutely zero faith in them selling players for any kind of money.
26 Jun 2025 16:07:08
Morelos at that point was better than Igamane. 12-14m is fair with a good sell on clause.
26 Jun 2025 16:49:56
When Lille offered the 17 mill that the club knocked back in 2020
were we not wanting 25 minimum? if i remember Gerrard stating.
Morelos was one of top scorers in Europe both domestically and in the europa league at the time, was 24yrs old, had 3 years left on his contract.
Not really comparable 2 completely different players and situations.
Hamza will go for around 15 mill with add one i reckon if we decide to sell him.
of course his value will increase as the main CF and a higher quality team around him than we can offer, if he keeps his scoring form up then his value will soar.
To break the scottish transfer sale record we will need over 29.50 mill euros.
Celtic are way ahead of us in that department.
Matt o Riley - 29.50 mill euros.
Jota - 29.10 mill euros.
Tierney - 27 mill euros.
we only have 2 players in the top 10 record transfer sales from our League.
Bassey - 23 mill euros.
Flo - 18 mill euros.
over 23 mill to break the club sale record.
over 29.5 mill to break the scottish record.
Success 1st, then we can command better fees for our players.
26 Jun 2025 17:26:40
Lille finished 5th in the french premier, Giroud manages them.
current squad value is around 330 mill.
Rising young talents like
Lucas Chevalier - GK - 23 - 30 mill.
Tiago Santos - RB - 22 - 15 mill.
Ngal'ayel Mukau - DM - 20 - 15 mill.
Ayyoub Bouaddi - CM - 17 - 28 mill.
Ethan Mbappé - CM - 18 - 5 mill.
Hákon Arnar Haraldsson - AM - 22 - 18 mill.
Matías Fernández-Pardo - CF - 20 - 15 mill.
Jonathan david - 25 - CF - 45 mill leaves on a free in 3 days.
Igamane is likely the rising young talent they want to replace David, and the fact they have Bouaddi the young french moroccan star would be a oull for Igamane.
15 mill and he is away in my opinion and he could be worth over 30 mill from one solid season of great goals for them, especially if he can score against the likes of PSG, Lyon, Marseille, Monaco, Nice who along with Lille are the current top 6 sides in that League.
Yes we beat NIce in an unexpected result but they were missing a lot of their top players and Farioli had not long left, when he was there they had the best defensive record in the league and were beating the top 3 teams PSG, Monaco, Marseille home and away.
WE struggled against Lyon most times we played them and LIlle are a better side than them.
26 Jun 2025 18:03:08
So Alex Patterson sold for £12M and Bassey for close to £20M both with add ons show they could get the price if the goods were worth that. too many fans too willing to run the club down IMO and also to believe the worst of it.
26 Jun 2025 18:40:25
Angus read above lad I said it was a tongue and cheek comment.
A handful of player sales for a profit is not enough for us.
For every player sold for profit there is 15 sold at a loss.
All I'm saying is I'm glad we have new owners who will not get their pants pulled down on deals.
I don't really think that's criticism towards the club.
Its simply wanting us to do better.
