    Re: Kion Etete- Spurs striker

    And the Rothmans Football Yearbook had Ingram down as our record signing until Sam Hammam’s spending spree nearly twenty years later I believe.

        I see it as good news that they rate him highly enough to insist on a buy back clause.

        Unless it's just a creative way to play the loan system.

        If we sign another striker on loan that'll be 3 loans (Philogene and Kipre the other 2)...we're allowed 5 so would that mean another 2 opportune signings on deadline day?

          Another CB and winger and we would have some real strength in depth then
          Also we can move a couple out on loan

            view from a Cheltenham fan.
            @alex_crook We had him on loan last season. He’s one of those players that looks like he can’t be bothered but when he needs to he really is the decent. Strong on the ball, and plays well in a front two - he was a great foil for Alfie May. Terrible header of the ball for a tall lad though!

              I suppose if he comes here and plays to a standard that means Spurs want him back then we’re definitely going to benefit on the pitch, even if we are unlikely to be able to do so in terms of value for money when he leaves.

              As for loans, we were told that the plan was to use all five of them, but I’d been assuming that had died a death because we have made so many permanent signings.

                We'll probably keep 2 loan slots for January in case of injuries to key players.

                    Cardiff can purchase a player that they otherwise may not have been able to acquire had it not been for the clause. In addition, the buyback figure is usually significantly higher than the original transfer fee.

                      Thanks for that - I was wondering how they worked.

                        Appears a good piece of business from City to me based on that article.

                            Is the buy back clause that relevant? Wouldn't such a clause depend on the player agreeing to return? And why would a player getting regular first team football go back to a club where he stands little or no chance of playing in the first team?

                              A very curious ‘transfer’ all round especially when you consider that the club was skint at the time.

                                The way i see it is that if he plays well for us and attracts interest from another club, then we will get a fee for selling him back to Spurs before he is sold on at a higher price tothe interested club.
