THE REASON SELL-UP CLAUSES CAN BE WORTHLESS

Post by JACKAL »

This is why Nigerian clubs or owners need to get all or most of their money upfront ....
If its the same family who owns both clubs, dont you think they will undervalue the transfer fee between both clubs so as not to pay a huger Sell-up clause !!!

Watford are planning to replace Odion Ighalo with another Nigerian attacker in the shape of Granada’s Isaac Success.

Ighalo’s scoring form has caught the eye of the Premier League heavyweights and a move away from the Wasps seems inevitable for the Super Eagles player.

Yet Watford have a plan in place to bring 20-year-old Success from La Liga to the Premier League, despite reported interest from Internazionale and Paris Saint-Germain.

The English side have the edge in the race to sign the talented youngster, as Gino Pozzo owns both the Wasps and Granada.

The Italian has moved players between the clubs before – Ighalo being a prime example – and is set to do so again.

Success has scored six goals for Granada in the Spanish top flight this season.

“Granada are not releasing him to any other club except Watford,” said the player’s agent, Dominic Egbukwu.

“Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain have approached us. Plenty of teams want him.

“Watford and Granada are still negotiating. The wages are still being discussed. The only transfer fee Watford will have to pay is a 10 percent sell-on clause to BJ Foundation Academy [his first club in Nigeria].”

The question though is whether Success is ready? The English crowd and pundits are far more brutal than their counterparts in Spain when it comes to how young and upcoming players are treated

I agree with you Yujam, I am very sceptical of the growth of the player... He has had substandard coaching and training in Granada for the last 2 years... I really dont see significant growth in his game..

I have said this before, too much playing time for a young player means there is a talent gap on that team. Just getting large playing time without proper coaching direction and good top flight competition in training does not equal a good program like Nacho is getting in Mancity.

Oga, you assumed that just because the same person own both entities the transfer fees will not be fair.

Not necessarily true! There are people making nice living valuing players. You may start and ask if Isaac's contract contains a buy out clause, if so how much?

Anyway, BJ was smart with the sell on clause, but in the future, the language may be refined to address situations such as this.

Cmoke :D :D :D :D :D
