  • " set to fall through" ---------------its been dragging on for weeks so they are hardly sticking their necks out there are they.
  • This Delort situation is starting to worry me. 4 million is just crazy for us to be even considering on a striker who has had one good year. I like that we are spending in the transfer market but we all know what happened the last couple of times we overspent on players. I don't want a situation where RD is putting his resources in this years transfer market, then we don't live up to expectations and ultimately not receive any further financial investment after this year. Premier league or bust is not the way to run this club. If we have transfer funds left, let's pursue a good attacking midfielder and then turn our attention to a loan for a striker. I would assume a few will be available for loan once the PL teams finalize their rosters.

    Exclusive: Ettori claims 1 million more, Delort Tours wants to play with!

    Published August 11, 2014, 6:00 am

    According to our information, the transfer 's 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 the group of Olivier Pantaloni . The attacker hopes to play Tuesday against Dijon in League Cup or next Friday against Valenciennes, tired of waiting.

    The best tourangeau scorer last season (24 goals) will have to convince her against a chair. Indeed, it is afraid that his attacker is injured and he does not want to see him play in the jersey of Tours FC.

    Also according to our information, Jean-Marc Ettori planned sale of up to € 3 million from the DNCG. He is committed to the financial policeman to sell striker at this price point before the end of the transfer window.
  • verbal attack Colin?
  • Who blinks first. Unfortunately I don't think we can afford to wait around for him.
  • If Delort is kicking up a fuss with their president, expect the transfer to go through by the end of the week

    After Andy Delort, the Tours FC on sale?

    Published August 12, 2014, 6:00 am

    As explained on our blog yesterday, Jean-Marc Ettori planned sale 's Andy Delort up to € 3 million from the DNCG. The Touraine president can not sell striker below this amount, otherwise they will have to fill the rest with his own money.

    If Charlton striker Touraine and always want the transfer to be made, however, waive the English club to offer more than € 2.8 million. Reportedly, the president of TFC will meet soon with his counterpart from Charlton to discuss the case but also Delort possible sale of Tours Football Club. An appointment is already scheduled.

    The owner of the English club is a Roland Duchâtelet , politician in Belgium. This Belgian millionaire is also chairman of Standard Liege club owner Madrid Alcorcon in the Spanish second division, as well as FC Carl Zeiss Jena in the German division 4. After attending FC Ujpest, he left the Presidency of the Hungarian club to his son. But before joining Standard Liege there is little, the Belgian politician was also chairman of Sint-Truiden. Knowing that it is impossible to chair two clubs playing in the same division, it was then named his wife as the owner. Finally, a rumor recently reported a millionaire interest for AS Bari, Italian second division club in financial difficulties.
  • Noticed on Sky Sports Transfer Centre that Hull City Midfielder: Stephen Quinn is being linked with several Championship clubs.

    We probably wont be one of them as cant see him being the type of player that RD wants to sign but he'd be the perfect No.8 Play maker type player that we as fans would like to see at the Valley

    One that Powell was after the summer after we were promoted.

    Yes he was I believe .

    Clutching at straws .Powell's Chief Scout Phil Chapple is still at the club and Katrien has said that his opinion along with the network scouts is sought about purchases and that we only sign a player when both are positive . So lets hope Phil puts Quinn's name forward.
  • Is he the chap that prese

    Am I reading that wrong or does it say Sale of Tours Football Club?
  • That's how I read it too! The clubs in debt. It's a good country to expand the empire into. Makes sense to me.

    Which one? ;-)
  • could it be why Roly is meeting him, seems extravagant for just one player, but if you're buying the whole club???

    Looks like the deal is off according to FL72 website and twitter feed ...
    Not able to agree fee

    Yes col. Thanks for the update.

  • Probably not too much more expensive to buy the whole club, and then move Delort over here. Clever Roly Poly :-)
  • the more I think bout it the more it makes sense...
  • I love this thread, not only are we buying a player from Tours but the whole club !

    So if this guy has promised the regulator that he wont sell Delort for less than e3m then why aren't we just offering that ?

    Because Uncle Roly wants to go and see him and talk about a bit of 'extra' business?
  • Would be pretty amusing if Roland turns up and buys the club outright!
  • Would be pretty amusing if Roland turns up and buys the club outright!

    And then we get Delort on a free transfer

  • Look at the facts, he has history of doing this before, maybe his affections have shifted and he can see little ol' us in the PL as an attractive proposition, who wouldn't?
  • Did notice that Yohann Thuram spent time on loan @ Tours (Whilst at Monaco) so if Andy Delort signs he wont be our sole link already with that particular French club
  • it also wouldnt be the first or second time the RD buys a club and then sells their top player straight away
