About £10m to £12m

In my humble opinion he will be gone in January along with Kpakio

I actually thought him and Dasilva played better than our two premiership players Rodon and Williams. I think we will struggle to keep hold of him. He just has this very calm composure under pressure.

Probably right with a return to end season! But what is imperative that we put in big sell on clause something like 50% as sure he's a £60m+ player in future

Difficult to put an exact price, but is certain to be sold either January or next summer.
It will be a shame to lose him, but I hope we can use all, if not most of the profit from his sale to strenghen our squad.

That feels wishful thinking with Tan.

Not THUS season, he won’t; but plenty of ‘big’ clubs tracking him!

I genuinely think £20m+
You have to bear in mind mark mcguinness went for £10m plus add ons

Dylan Lawlor is going to be a Premier League player in the future.
A proper modern day centre-back. He’s so composed and intelligent on the ball.
His ability to play through the lines is undoubtedly his strongest asset right now.
He can hit it high and long to make cross field switches or keep it on the floor. Either way he’s so good at finding areas to exploit in the opposition and he barely ever loses the ball - even when he makes ‘risky’ forward passes.
At 19-years-old he’s already putting in some really solid performances for Cardiff City in League One and he’s becoming a key player for Wales as well.
Defensively, there are some areas he could improve in. But he’s relatively strong in his duels (65% won) and he’s got decent recovery speed (12 recoveries per 90). Definitely could do better in certain situations in terms of his reactions (bit of youthful rashness sometimes which is to be expected) but overall there’s so much potential there.
I think Wales have a centre-back that can dominate the backline for the next decade.
Cardiff will sell him for big money too if he continues like this.

Bloody hell. Same things said year after year. We have nurtured him in the academy and is doing brilliantly. Get promotion and build a team around these exciting youngsters to try and get into the Premiership. It doesn’t matter how much we sell him for Tan will keep the money. We keep on saying what a great academy but what is the point if we keep on selling. If we do we will never get to the Premiership. Narrow mindedness is the scourge of all evil. Keep Lawlor at all costs.

Spot on - We need to go up this season and let the likes of Lawlor -Kpakio - and the rest of these youngsters a season in the championship .

I don’t see him leaving in January, although teams could test our resolve. Possibly in the summer, but I can also see him wanting to spend one full year in the Championship with us. If we don’t go up, he’ll be 100% gone in the summer.
Whoever convinced him and Ronan to sign new contracts deserves Christmas bonuses!

He won't go in January.
The scaremongering with that is similar to the scaremongering about Salech going last summer.
All our promising talent will be with us until the end of the season.
The longer we keep BBM, the more likely these players will stay. Certain people should remember that.
The players love BBM.

I agree January is too early, but if we don't go up i think we all know what dictator Tan will do, he'll sell anything which isn't nailed down including the mud off their boots. There is so much at stake this season for the future of the club.

Big clubs were tracking Lee Jarman.
He needs sustained performances. He’s certainly started well.
Fri Nov 21, 2025 10:10 am
He's certainly one that will have eyes on him. Specifically as he's slotted into the Wales starting line up without any issues; in fact, Rodon looks like the weaker link when we're under attack.
I wouldn't be shocked if someone came in for him in January. You can imagine Harry Wilson and co. taking good reports back.
