Liverpool related transfer speculation

[bluebell]

He has to agree to that though. If I was him I'd be happy to stay with this group, get paid a good wage, and hope I got onto the pitch enough to qualify for another PL or CL medal (or FAC or LC).

He is surplus to requirements and if we get anything close to £15m we will have done well

 

[Frogfish]

15 years old.

Rio is 16. Good age to get them.

Again. That depends on him agreeing to a move. I wouldn't if I were him.

That doesn't sound noncy at all.

if he is 15

 

[StevieM]

if he is 15

Unless we’re going all Epstein, we can’t sign him until he’s 18 anyway - otherwise we’d be running an international child trafficking operation.

Sponsors tend not to like that sort of thing.

Calm down R Kelly. 😉

Lets see if we get any offers

Just to clarify, kids can sign pro terms at 17.

I think it'll be slow and steady for ibou. I'm more than happy to tie down others though. Especially Macca.

Doak+Elliott+Cheesy+Tsimi could add £80-90m to the bank balance

[Julien Laurens] PSG has rejected two approaches from Liverpool for Bradley Barcola, one earlier in the summer and one on Wednesday.

Is there not some FIFA rule about signing kids from different continents under the age of 18?

Edit : Yeah there is - apart from specific circumstances like family relocation, within EU, within a certain geographical distance to a border and residency rules - the FA seems to have ratified this into its own rules in Article 19.

Yes, but clubs can often get around those rules. But for kids already on the books, they can sign pro terms at 17. It was usually the case that we’d give them a relatively low salary for 2-3 years at 17, and any really good ones would get a new deal at 18. I think, from memory, that they still needed parent / guardian to counter-sign at 17 but at 18 they didn’t.
We’ll see pics of Rio singing his first pro deal later this month. I thought it was Rio we were talking about.
With the other kid, they’ll make up some shit about his family moving to the UK for work / study and then we’ll sign him while he’s here. Those FIFA rules are about preventing trafficking of young, vulnerable kids, when their families come too they tend to turn a blind eye.

Quite a "pay him what he wants" situation for me, comfortably our best midfielder since Gerrard

Yeah that’s what Article 19 literally states - it refers to international transfers - getting the parents to move too from Senegal would be the only way round it - but isn’t there also restrictions about paying the parents, etc.

Anyway - he’s not 17 until next Christmas either.
