    Unless Nathan has told him that he'll be one of the four strikers next year, it'll be tough to hold onto him.

    And if that happens then you'd think Tanto is off, Godden reduced to bit-part and one more signing for 26/27.

    M.Leaburn, M.Mbick, C.Kelman and M.Arquee

    Mbick is an interesting one.  one good season for us and he would be a 15-20m player. but to me leaburn and Kanu are in fromt of him in terms of young strikers. we also haVe Kelman who is young, and then Godden and Dykes. plus TC as a young forward. 

    sell him and buy a really gpod LwB ? where we have zero options ?
    Post was ok until you called TC a forward!!😜

    I think the other kind of concern I'd have is young players that go to Prem clubs and then just get stuck on the loan carousel bouncing from club to club and not really ever getting the chance to break through at their parent club before getting sold somewhere in the Champ for fairly ridiculous money.

    Regardless of what he (if he ever did) go for I'd be looking to profit on future loans to take his final sale value up, as well as the usual add-ons and %

    Reckon he'll end up going, but hope we hold out for 7m+ and a large sell on percentage

    There is no way Oxford will help us out in this window
    Considering where we both are in the table that's slitting your own throat the fans would riot.

    Considering they would probably loan him anyway next season to the championship as another step up maybe we could do a deal of x amount of money say 7-10 million or more depending on how much we value him and we get to be the club he's loaned at next year depending on staying up of course.probably too many variables in that but worth a shot.

    I’m not sure Kanu is ahead of him. Jones preferred Mbick last year but also I think Mbick’s skill set is more likely to make the step up to the championship 

    I think Godden will need to earn a new contract, maybe harsh but there’s no room for sentiment and if he isn’t the same player as he was before I wouldn’t be offering him one 

    Leaburn, Mbick, Kelman, TC plus 2 others will be what we aim for. Godden, Dykes, Kanu and Olaofe have the opportunity to fight for those 2 spots or we might want someone new

    No way whatsoever should we be considering selling Mbick. 

    He was always going to attract attention once he started banging in those goals. That’s OK as long as the numpties realise there is a big fucking reason why a PL club (or clubs?) would put in a cheeky bid or two to a ‘lower league’ club that’s probably got a reputation for not recognising they’ve sold players too cheaply in the past. His value will only go up even if he stays at Colchester for the rest of this season. It will soar once he is back at the Valley and getting goals in Championship and making further appearances in the England set-up.

    If we do have a plan for getting to the PL then players like Mbick must feature in it.

    Yeah, we tell 'em to f'off unless they meet our valuation, he's contracted till at least 2028...

    Norwich are signing a Norwegian Striker for €7m / Oxford have signed a 26-year old Striker from South Korea whose club turned down bids of £1.5m in the summer from other Championship sides.
    Brighton have a long way to go before they reach what we should be demanding... £10m minimum
    Thats for the potential alone, let alone addons in my opinion

    Mbick will never go for 7-10 million get real. He is unproven. Played a handful of games in League 2. I would sell him for 4 Million with add ons.

    They rate Mbick very highly and will get him for less than 10 million. What might annoy people too is he will more than likely be in their squad for prem games this season….yet we didn’t recall him

    He can't play for them this season as he's played for 2 teams already this season

    7/8 million with a 40-50% sell on wouldn’t be bad business imo.

    If he’s quality for Brighton then a top side will come in for him for silly money. If he’s not, we win the deal anyway. 

    Don’t want to lose him, but as we know the Jump from L1 to the Champ is massive, let alone the jump from L2 to the Prem.

    Really…thats a shame for him. We should be asking for 10million plus. They reckon he’s the next best striker in years to come and can play prem level now. However, they think we’ll accept half of that with some add ons.

    Depends on how much we value him doesn't it they have offered 3.5 million for a player playing in league 2 we have him contracted for years and can say double the offer the balls in our court,as some have mentioned before though it's down to the owners and what model they have been sold ie selling talent.I'd personally keep him and give him a chance next year but what ever works for us is more important 4 million and some add ons doesn't really benefit us really in the now.

    £10m is a hugely unrealistic ask 
    Why? - He's our player until 2028... Do we need to sell him or something?

    Problem with sell on clauses is you may never see the money………Gomez for example, so wouldn’t matter if it were 70% sell on.

    Absolute nonsense. Mbick has played a handful of games in League One with us and for Colchester in League Two. Suddenly he is going to be in a Premiership squad? I am a regular watcher of Academy football and Mbick is a decent player, but that is all. 4million plus add ons is what we should be asking. Look what happened to Mason Burstow.

    I hope we have a tough and firm stance on this. £10m, all up front plus 30% sell on and a loan for next year

    depending who they have in thei u-21’s, a left back on loan now and we will call it £9.5m

    The issue here is if his head gets turned and he wants to go. PL clubs these days have so much money they can probably offer 20k a week and not even flinch.
    You're right but he's on a long deal here and doesn't have the player power of a Harry Kane etc. They can turn his head but he can't do much about it without jeopardising his career at this point
    That's a very good point, it's a very different situation as opposed to someone such as Miles Leaburn, a first team regular who would damage Charlton's hopes of remaining in this league by leaving. Micah, is still young but I'm sure the lure of the pound is a big factor, and why not, and the chance of being at Premier club equally so, if Micah breaks into the first team next season and Charlton remain in the Championship, maybe's I know, but his value could potentially rise. Charlton have to sit tight unless the silliest of bids come in, Micah is not yet in the first team and with a returning Kanu ( 14 goals so far for Walsall ) Charlton may think that the right bid would allows us to pay debts and bring in players of Championship quality to progress the first team squad further, it's a balance but Charlton hold the cards.....for the moment.

    This is pie in the sky. Worth nowhere near those figures.

    Charlton: No, we will only take 4m and that’s final.

    Okay sorry you think it’s nonsense but Brighton think they’ll have our pants down getting him for 5million or less. Not nonsense as well if you go Mbick thread I know someone who works for brightons recruitment and said they wanted him….. we should be asking for 10+ but our case would be stronger if we recalled him and played him the rest of the season. However there’s a risk playing a young player in a relegation battle.

    Considering brightons track record for finding talent and selling them on for big money surely we have to hard ball them a bit and not fold at the first couple of offers,they have the money and if they don't pay so be it we develop him.
