RAN is well gone fella...

Is he?

 

[lemonjelly]

If you want 100% certifiable proof, then no he isn't.
But yes.

 

[Deano]

Going to be some turnover again if RAN goes as well as Semedo and Cunha going out of the door. To replace them and also add improvements to the attack is going to be a tough job which unfortunately I don't have any faith in them getting right. Hopefully there won't be any others.

I think Liverpool will go for Kerkez. Although RAN would be cheaper.

I'd be more happy with RAN being the A.N.Other to go then someone like Andre or Joao Gomes. In reality, if RAN goes, we have both Hugo & Rodrigo who can play there. Semedo going means Lima might be giving a more senior role (and Rodrigo can also play there). Even with those options I'd say it's inevitable we'll sign another full back. It might be someone that is comfortable on both sides.

Looking at Aït-Nouri in isolation; he's soon to be 24, he's been here for 5 seasons now, has 2 years left on his contract in the summer, has had almost 150 games at PL level plus 13 for Algeria including an appearance at an AFCON tournament... This summer should be the perfect time for him to move on and for us to sell him.

It obviously depends on another team wanting him bad enough to meet our valuation though. Hard to think where he might end up really.

Liverpool fans really like him, always plays well against them too.

Yeah, I think his reputation is high amongst non-Wolves fans. One of the few players in our squad who most other fans would pick out as a good player. They watch him do a flick or two on MOTD and assume he's doing that all the time.

Very different to a top team who will have scouted him extensively and will have seen all of his other inconsistencies.

I don't know anything about how Ki-Jana Hoever is getting on in France apart from seeing that he seems to be getting a lot of game time.

If we're not going to use him next season, especially with Semedo leaving, then we need to be selling him as well.

What is RAN gonna fetch? £40m?

Transfermarkt has him valued at £35M. I think his old club have a big sell on % though which may drive his value up.

 

[Kenny]

Got hand over a large chunk (50%?) of anything we sell him for haven't we?

 

[Tredman]

We should be getting 40 i think, be nice to push that to 45 but I doubt it.

 

[Tony Towner]

50% of profit or a £9m buy out of that...so the latter

They obviously don’t watch enough of him.

There is absolutely no way this season’s RAN gets anywhere near that Liverpool side.

 

[Carrotdude]

I think Kerkez and Robinson will be bigger left back targets than RAN this summer.
