According to our information, the transfer of Andy Delort (22 years) is not on track. The attacker has actually agreed with the club Charlton but the Touraine president is not at all satisfied by an offer from the English club in the second division.
Charlton offers 2.8 million euros plus bonuses, while Jean-Marc Ettori claims 1 million more have we learned from a reliable source.
The English club could therefore decide to drop the case. Today, it is planned that Andy Delort resume training with Olivier Pantaloni group. The attacker hopes to play Tuesday against Dijon in League Cup or next Friday against Valenciennes, tired of waiting.
Tours need to raise 5m don't they before they can sign any new players? Delort seems to be their only saleable asset
According to the DNCG which is the French FFP Tours already promised them 3mil euro from the sale of Delort so they really don't have an option other than to sell him.
Another problem is that they will owe something like 40% of his transfer fee to his previous club/agents etc so it sounds like they are trying to inflate the price as much as possible.
The closer to the end of the transfer window the stronger our hand gets.
Think it's dead in the water tbh. We can't hang around playing a waiting game as we need to start negotiations for another striker. I would tell Tours that it's over unless a deal can be struck in 24 hours. Time to move on.
I agree with others that we need to set some deadlines so we can look at other options. He looks like he would be a good player to have and i would welcome him to the club, but we shouldn't (and i doubt we are) be putting all our efforts into one player. We have to take our own FFP into consideration. If we over spend we could be caught by the same sanctions by spending outside our limitations.
Hopefully we wil sign him for the fee we offered. In an way its nice to know RD won't be held to ransom on money matters.
Here's a cut out and paste rumour guide for wannabe insiders ------------------ I've been informed that Delort will/will not sign today. I am very well informed. ------------------

Does the French Ligue 2... (A) Have a window (B) Does it close before / after / or at the same time as ours?
Hopefully we wil sign him for the fee we offered. In an way its nice to know RD won't be held to ransom on money matters.
