the Micah Richards money

[dfOAFC]

can't be long til they sell him now, can it???

 

 

Toure signed and now they've bid £19m for Lescott.

 

Onuah just signed for 5 more years too.

 

He'd look a £10m snip in a Villa shirt

OR put back into his favoured right back position?

yep, right back all the way. dont think we will be seeing that money any time soon.

It's not like City need to sell anyone anyway. They could have a 100 man squad if they wanted too.

Richards is only what 21/22 so he is still fairly young n still learning his trade n i cant see city selling him yet think we may have to wait a couple more years till we see any moneys from him,not like city need to sell any 1 at the min.

[singe]

I might be losing the plot here but once hes 24 do we still get any money? Obviously City more likely to sell than let him leave for free but what happens not a clue?

I think it is a sell on fee rather than a Youth Development clause. ie the sell on fee works whenever and is put in by the club, the Youth Development is a Football League/PRemier LEague legal ruling.

Well I hope it is.

Thinking about it, it is bound to be a sell on , as City would not be able to try and buy it out.

good thinking wish it was clear what was what. Just sell him now for 12 million and let us have he cash. At least it wasnt a swap for Toure at some 1 million crap.

 

I think its a 20% sell on clause for sure.

 

Can't see him shifting anytime in the future. Just be used more in his preferred right back position.

[creepy]

right back for Richards, when he regains his form this season he will be one of if not the best right back in the country

 

we wont be seeing any Micah money for a long time

According to the Blue Moon site a poster with the credibility of Harry Dowd has stated that the Lescot deal is nearly complete and that he will be a City player within 24 hours.... but cant say the same for Richards !!!! City Fan sat right next to me

The one thing that may play into our hands is that Richards and Hughes don't get along (from what I've heard). The question is, is Hughes the sort of manager to let personallity clashes get in the way of making footballing decisons

Could be worse if he gets rid of him on the cheap just to get rid of him......

Just our luck ,

Article in MOS that he is now the only survivor in Hughes reign at City !!!!!!!!!

Even if Richards goes, the windfall would be ploughed straight into the stadium project.....Unfortunately, In the present economic climate, there is no way any money would be used to strengthen the team!
