Yeah, that hasn't actually happened, so you're making this up and passing it off as fact.
Maybe they'll buy Navas or maybe they'll buy Henderson, but it seems unlikely they'll buy one and keep the other on the bench.

Don't really understand why people think we shouldn't sell him at that price. West Ham might not raise it and we'll be stuck with him. He adds absolutely nothing to this team. Take your loss. Plus at 20mil we might not even have to buy him out, so what's the point? We'll never get 40 in a million years.
Maybe not, but we could get 35
I agree, think also what we would save in salary. we could wait for someone to bid higher but in the meantime we will still be paying his wages
Agree with that but 20m is too low we must be confident of a counter, dumb move otherwise. Half a loaf and all that
I think it's low too considering he's still valued in the national team, but with that 10m buy out in mind we might not get a chance like this again. It would be dumb indeed if we fail to offload him this summer.

West Ham are low balling every single one of their targets despite everyone knowing they have over £100m from the Rice deal. Hope they end up with no one and get relegated

Obviously most of us want to see him leave, but it’s a joke to sell him for 20m. His not suited for us, but will be a very good defender for someone playing him to his strengths.
Agree with this.
Why should Sociedad behave any different to every other club we deal with...£2m fee offer with half his wages covered, incoming....
Interesting, that is probably a pretty good spot for VdB
Im
Not passing it off as fact haha simmer down for fecks sake
I don't think we need a 5th choice to be that high a level. Evans will do. Another 8-10m to cover his amortization is a good deal. We will struggle to sell elsewhere with his wages.
£20m was always what I thought we were likely to get for Maguire considering his wages. I think a lot of people don't realise how much higher the wages we pay our players are than most clubs, especially when it comes to what we pay our average players. The clubs that would be interested in Maguire can't afford £190k per week.
What was this?
The original Tweet had the PA Dugout mistakenly reporting that West Ham won't go in for him. They've since deleted and uploaded a new Tweet indicating that West Ham appear unlikely to submit a new offer.
Their top earner is what? 150? They offered Rice 200. So the tight arses can pay if the want to. Top players in this day and age ask for top cash and even if everyone doesnt like Harry, West Ham needs to cough up if they want to attract top players. They can pay 150. We pay off the extra 40 for 2 years of his contract thats what 4/5 mill. So they should bid 40. 5 goes to Maguire and 35 to us.
Thanks to both @unplayable and @mav_9me from the Rasmus Højlund thread (both Tier 3):

Maguire's not a top player though
Current England Captain. If West Ham want him you think they can pay him less than their top earners? Good luck with that.

Pretty sure that's the other Harry...
With the exception of Paqueta who's on £150k, their top earners Ings and Zouma are on £125k. That's £65k less than Maguire's current salary for a clearly average defender, regardless of his England status. Zouma's a better cb than Maguire imo.
Also, Maguire isn't English captain, Kane is.
Harry Kane is Englands current Captain not Harry Maguire ?
Yes my bad. Current England CB
If this is settled at €65m plus €10m for a 20 year old, then this is not terrible businesses, his wages will be low probably €5m per season so 5 year contract is €90m or £56m plus £8.5m with £4.2m per year which is 80k Per week, would take our actual spend to £55m for Mount, £43m for Onanan and £56m for Hojlund, Total of £154m - £24m in player sales so £130m net
Are we just making shit up now?
Harry Kane says Hi.
Captain = CB same difference
We'll see. I thought the same about Antony and he ended up getting £200k per week
For England's first choice CB, surely £40M to £50M is about right.
What would John Sones be worth? About the same, I would have thought.
You're seriously trying to claim Stones isn't a significantly better defender than Maguire? He was one of the most important players in a City team that just won the Treble

This is coming from Jamie Jackson, so I would wait for more reliable journalists to report the same thing. Still, it's not like anyone reliable's reporting a particular fee at this time.
