Here's the SLP article. 4m seems very low, especially when 3.5m was apparently on the table in the summer when we would have (theoretically) had time to spend money on a replacement.
Posted this on the 'Sale / takeover' thread but also relevant here;
Rumours of Everton sniffing around again from Louis Mendez on Charlton Live just now so RD will trouser any transfer fee for Konsa. That should mean a commensurate, plus any proceeds for Holmes, drop in the sale price. Whether new owners would allow a similar increased spend on the restructuring of the squad is the question

If there is an upside to Konsa being sold it would be the first time I genuinely genuinely felt a sale was close-ish. That said, "closeish" would really mean any time between now and the summer as this would be Roland's attempt to asset strip before selling and he really only has three more weeks to do that.
3m for Gomez was a downright giveaway - I remember saying it at the time and being shouted down.
I was not a member here at the time but I'm sorry I was nor around to back you up and shout back with you. An absolutely obscene fee for a player with the tools to be the best English footballer of his generation.
Maybe some of that can go to KR! RD doesn't want to pee buyers off after all. Mind you the Lookman money was supposed to go on the training ground wasn't it?
He wants to go and sit next to Lookman on the bench. Go figure.
At least they'll be able chat over up coming England youth games and the good old times when they were the premier league stars of the future at the Valley
The Blues are ‘ready’ to push through a £4 million move for Charlton defender Ezri Konsa according to South London Press. Everton were reportedly looking at the 20-year-old in the summer but nothing came of it, the Merseyside outfit are looking to spark a deal this January. The England youth international has made 68 appearances for the Addicks and would become the second Charlton youngster within 12 months to depart for the Toffees after Ademola Lookman’s £11 million transfer last year.

Can only hope that if he's sold he's loaned back.

How can you do your job if all the carpets underneath you are being pulled.?
Nothing new - move along.
( unashamed fishing for LoLs as I posted the same joke (?) on the takeover thread)

Wishful thinking imo.
