Caulker deal

Wed Jul 31, 2013 10:40 am

According to reports on twitter the deal is stalling because Spurs want a sell on clause stating that Spurs get first refusal for first 2 seasons and at the same price they sell him to us

kind of like a glorified loan?

madness if true, if in 2 seasons time spurs want him back, its because he will have developed as a player with us, and thus, will be worth more than we paid for him.

My thoughts exactly. Malky would be crazy to agree with this. 1 of the benefits of signing a young international is a profit when sold on. Very good signing if it comes off but not too sure about this clause

They were saying last night that it was a done deal and would be finalised by thursday. Citygent retweeted this and he's been on the money lately

No official word of any bid actually been made.
Just paper talk and gossip at mo.

Contrary to rumours, there are no last minute transfer hitches today. This will be a massive capture for #CCFC

Sorry I like Caulker but I don't see him as a Massive Deal.. Great signing don't doubt that. But a massive deal would be a player who could attract other players.

To be fair, how do we know he won't attract other players yet?

Well Roathie I was actually alluding to either Moreno or Capoue.

To be fair Bob, We don't know...

But if Malky is attempting to attract European talent would they be more temped by Caulker or Capoue/Moreno ?
All three would be brilliant :lol:

That is a shame. Capoue by far the bigger name.

Is Capoue a bigger name? I had never heard of him before our attempts at signing him, where Caulker is a name I'm quite familiar with. A pedantic reply, but alas the truth of the matter.

Two of Englands brightest young defenders. Brayford and Caulker. If that does not signal intent I
dont know what does. Unless we sign an astronaut. f**k Me Cardiff Are Going To The Moon lets
have some!!

The majority on here hadnt heard of Capoue up until last week and I daresay most of the
British Football Public hadnt either. Caulker is well known. I got a jack doing some landscape
gardening outside. proper football fan too. i just told him Caulker is looking imminent. Fair
play his face just fell through the floor

Re: Caulker deal

Wed Jul 31, 2013 12:16 pm

I don't think hes a big enough name to be a catalyst. He doesn't have a European reputation.

But the important thing is hes simply an excellent player and will transform the defence that has seemed shaky in pre season. Spurs fans wont be happy that's for sure Caulker and Bale out the door.

CityGent, How confident are you this will go through, or are you unsure now because of last minute hitches?
