Eze Update on 09:41 - Jul 20 with 7396 views | timeforheroes | Saw this- Ornstein is often on the money but I did notice that he's claimed Eze has a year on his contract. If I remember correctly we have an option extend for a further year so I'm holding out hope it will be closer to £20m | | | |
Eze Update on 09:42 - Jul 20 with 7384 views | Northernr | Yeh it's a year with a year option - so two years. | | | |

That's the one. Of those two Palace has to be the better move for the player but I'd still be hoping better offers would come in if I was Eze. Personally thought he could do well at Southampton in place of Redmond but that depends where Hasenhuttl stands on the Eze lazy/not debate! Sidenote but that article also claims that Colin and co are working for free at Boro! | | | |

Eze Update on 10:04 - Jul 20 with 7272 views | timeforheroes | For the record Ornstein has addressed comments about the year option but says that the bit on price- 'it is likely' we will 'have to accept considerably less than £20m'- stands [Post edited 20 Jul 2020 10:17]

I am not sure that we "have to accept" anything less than we want for him. Having sold BoS to whichever place he eventually goes, we will have got £4.5M in the bank, which removes a lot of the immediate financial pressure. That removes the need to sell unless their is a very good offer on the table. Taking off my QPR optimism bias, I can't see us taking less than £15M for a once in a generation talent who we have invested so much in. | |

I think we are still under pressure to sell. Pre-COVID £4.5m just mitigates pre-existing losses. Now with other revenue streams severely affected, we have to sell to keep afloat. The squad clearly needs surgery, another CB and a striker (or another Prem loan) first and foremost, and that money has to come from somewhere. With regards a fee, I think £15m will represent a decent bit of buisiness in this climate. I'd expect somewhere closer to £12-£13m with add ons. | | | | Login to get fewer ads
Eze Update on 10:24 - Jul 20 with 7153 views | Antti_Heinola | Glad we're asking for £20m, even if we have to accept less. This time, though, as opposed to Freeman/Smithies, more than one club want him and West Ham are notorious for over-spending to appease their angry fans. If a bidding war starts, it could get interesting. Palace will be more circumspect, but then if Zaha goes to Arsenal they'll have money burning a hole in their pocket. I'd like him to go to Leicester, really. Perfect for him there under Brendan. | |

I would have though that both BOS and Eze would be a good fit for Leicester next season and the way they play. | |

If he didn't know he had two years on his deal I'm not sure how he can be making statements and what we would or would not have to accept. A player with one year left on his deal is worth significantly less than one with two. | | | |

I would imagine he's amore tapped in to Palace and West Ham than QPR and knows they won't go near £20m as opposed to being aware of QPR's inner workings and what they will eventually deal at, if that makes sense | |

Eze Update on 10:42 - Jul 20 with 7062 views | daveB | I think there is less pressure to sell Eze than Bright this summer, if we don't get the money we want we can hold on till january give that we'll be getting money for bright and would have thought BFG will go this summer as well. | | | |
Eze Update on 10:49 - Jul 20 with 7025 views | LythamR | I am guessing that we do need to sell Eze this season (for the right price) in order to fund the further development of the team. There is also an elephant in the room, or rather a couple namely Langley and Carlisle. Do we take a bit less than 20m now or hold on and risk the value of the most fouled player in the league going up in smoke some chilly November evening | | | |

Or he's throwing the line in at the behest of either Palace or West Ham in order to drive the price down. | |

Man Utd were very keen on Maddison who Eze would be a nice replacement for, but doubt they need him now they have Fernandes | | | |

Eze Update on 11:21 - Jul 20 with 6868 views | billericaydicky | I would assume that if it is to be West Ham then we must be discussing a deal involving Hugill plus cash? Assuming Hugill hasn't sustained a serious injury. I just hope we aren't tucked up again as we were with Sinclair going in exchange for a couple of Million plus Dowie and Keith Rowlands! | | | |

Not sure he's a Sheff U player, to be honest. Brighton would be a better fit in terms of how the play, but I would hope he can do better than Brighton. Southampton would be a decent move. | |

Eze Update on 13:17 - Jul 20 with 6390 views | Hunterhoop | Ornstein can say what he likes; in fact, West Ham may well be encouraging him to do so! But we have no need to sell him for £15m or less as opposed to £20m....unless the owners are trying to recover investment. We will have come in comfortably within FFP this season, and one our rolling 3 year loss will now have far more space in it than it has done since we came down. The revenue lost in this break was relatively little now they’re completing the season and retaining most of the Sky money. Looking ahead, BOS’s sale injects further revenue and cash into the equation thus increasing our headroom on FFP. With 2 years on Eze’s contract, we could even hold off until Jan, when some clubs, in particular those mentioned, might be desperate. The ONLY reason we would be willing to take a lower offer now is if one or several of the shareholders want/need to recover some investments (i.e. loans), from QPR Holdings Ltd, which is something they’re entitled to do, but something they’ve promised they won’t had previously said they had no need to. | | | |
