Posts: 3,160January 8 Not sure what to make of these reports. I think Lawro mentioned in a good while ago too, the cretin.
Thing is though, if he is going to be sold in the summer, as looks likely. And Chelsea do bid 22 million. Do you think PSG, Real Madrid or even Man united wouldn't bid more?
I'd like to think it wasn't in the contract. But if it is then there is ground to believe that we were facing far less than it he hadn't signed that 5 year deal.
Personally I can't see it. 15 million represents too big a risk for Everton to limit the up side of the deal should the risk work out to 7 million.

Posts: 1,206January 8 You don't have to bid more than the buy out clause, it has to be accepted by the club

Posts: 1,053January 8 The idea of a release clause makes sense to me. It represents a middle ground between letting his contract run down and tying himself to a club which has yet to fulfil his ambitions (unfortunate, but true). By limiting the transfer fee, he has the choice to stay here or go to a club of his choice, rather than just be sold to the highest bidder. It ensures EFC get something back, should he decide to go. If I was him, I would prefer Spain to Manchester or London,, and not just for the nice weather.

Posts: 24,753January 8 funny that the other day fellaini was saying he is happy to see his contract out at Everton.....if he knows he's got a 22 million release clause he will have some idea of whether clubs will activate it or not, thus meaning he will probably have no need to stay til the end of his contract....if he had one, his dad would have told every one by now as well.

Posts: 3,455January 8 Yeah it's not the first time we've heard of a buy out clause - altho £22 Million is the lowest figure mentioned yet. But the fact is, if you remember, we weren't expecting him to sign any contract at all 18 months ago - and if he hadn't, we'd be trying to sell him this month so we could get a couple of million for him - or he'd be already gone for less than we bought him for.
You can't actually make a player sign any contract you want him to sign like -

the article says 22 or more.....the 'or more' exists for a reason. If Everton made it clear to interested parties (of which we are lead to believe there are many) that they had a bid of 22 they were considering, if someone bid 26 what would stop us from accepting that bid and letting the player speak to that club first.
The point is, if a CL club comes in for that amount of money and no one else does then he can still get the move he wants.
I see it as more of a minimum price to be honest.
But..... if you are going to believe what you read in the papers.....the you should believe all of the story....not just the bit you don't like the look of.
Personally I think its all bollox...but if it is as you say it is....then why would the words "or more" exist in the players contract?

Posts: 3,455January 8 Having a minimum amount which the club may choose to reject completely defeats the purpose of a buy out clause. There might as well be none.
To me, the "Or more" means the author isn't too sure what the buy out amount is. I've seen £24 Million and £26 Million mentioned.

a little vague isn't it. Sounds like lazy journalism and the guy who wrote it is just fishing around for some one to dig a litle further than what he is capable of doing to actually find out if there is one.My second point would be, how many daft gits will now go out and buy the daily mail just to read that one tiny article? my suggestion would be plenty...... -
Posts: 201January 8 it says here in the mail that 13% of everton fans will buy a copy today. that can't be right can it ? can someone check please ?

could be if there is only one bidder.....a minimum fee we have to take.
As I said, I think the 22million clause is bollix.
I just question people taking only the worse from an article and painting it a gospel.
