Cheers... Neil raised a good point (as all Neil's do)... and wasnt sure if what you've put was the case or not.killerandflash said:
No choice. If the buy back clause says we can buy him for £100k we can buy him back for £100k.North Lower Neil said:

The one way they can, is if a League Two club not doing well try and sign Deji next summer, we don't take up the option to re-sign him, and he goes on the bigger and better things.
I'm sure other clubs in the past though, have activated the Buy Back option, and then sold the individual on themselves.
e.g. Notts County try to sign him for 100k, but our buy back is 25k... We can then sell him on to Notts County for 100k, and make 75k
And if his agent knows the L2 club are interested, they'd be mad to agree to it.
"So you could agree to go to Charlton first, and they'll get £75k... or Notts County say of you just go straight there, they'll give you an extra £10k out of the £75k they've saved...."
And then sell him on to Brentford or whoever is interested in him.1 -
All the best Deji, hope we’ve got a good sell on!0

A tad Surprised but Andy Woodman liked Deji after his 1st loan. I did hear yesterday that one of Deji first coaches was saying that Deji and Grant from Millwall had gone to Bromley but I just thought he didn't realize that we had recalled Deji !
It's difficult but at least if Deji kicks on we still have a say.

He hasn’t progressed as we would have hoped, and I assume he’s getting to the point (21 in September) where he’ll count as a senior player. At some point you have to cut people loose as we can’t afford to keep paying a player on the chance he suddenly turns it on.6
-
Shame but he's not broken through like Gomez or Konsa did, though I thought he was more consistent than Ness.2

I thought it was noteworthy that one of Garner's first acts was to send him on loan to non-league during pre-season. It told us what we already knew, which is that he's promising and physically gifted but raw, especially in possession.
Weirdly, I was thinking about him during my run today. We have so many CBs at the club and I was surprised he didn't get a loan during the window. Obviously we know why now. Didn't realize he was out of contract in the summer, but this makes sense.
He is another one of our youngsters who needs to play regular football to develop. Similar to Asiimwe and Anderson, I think he was able to get away with a lot at youth level because of his physical attributes, and now needs to adapt to the senior game. Sounds like he's had two good spells at Bromley already.
At the end of the day, it makes sense given the first refusal and sell on fee. If we're are going to chase promotion (don't laugh) next season, then we won't have time to bed youngsters in who we aren't certain are going to make it at this level, if not the one above. I think Anderson, Asiimwe, and Mitchell are all better bets than Deji at this point. And as such, we move him on, but the door is still slightly ajar.1 -

Seems a strange one to me. I think he will go on to be a great centre half. Rate him higher than Ness to be honest.4

Being better than Ness, which isn't a clear cut opinion anyway, isn't much of a vote of confidence really.Scoham said:

Good luck Deji, class will out. I'm sure you will succeed.0

Bonkers. Signing players from L2 or who can't get a game in Scotland.1

I think there's a bit of a misunderstanding here. We don't have a buy back clause.killerandflash said:

The article on the official site says we have a first refusal clause, meaning we will be made aware, and can match any offers that come in for him. So if a club bid 200k for him, we have to be informed and can then decide if we want to match the bid.
But then Deji will obviously have a choice on who he chooses to sign for. He isn't forced into signing for us just because we matched another clubs bid.11 -

He lacks pace and speed of thought. I told my mates a couple of seasons ago that Ness would prove to be a better option - I know he’s had a sticky season but I’m still hopeful with him.
Deji will need to work out how best to use his frame - who knows he might end up like that Santos guy.who plays for Bolton.1 -
Aren’t those clauses the same thing? As you say a player can’t be forced to sign for a club.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Good luck to Deji, I really rate him and am convinced he will play a decent level of football regularly in his career (Championship+).
But ultimately he is young and raw and needs to be playing games which he wasn't doing here so this is the right move for him. I would love to see him back in a Charlton shirt with both us and him showing significant steps forwards.3 -
Not really the same no. A buy back clause is a pre-agreed transfer fee that will be written into the contract. So if/when we offer it the club have no choice but to accept it. So if for example a club bid 500k for him but we had a buy-back clause fee of 200k, then they have to accept our 200k offer.Scoham said:

First refusal clause just means the club have to notify us when any bids go in for him that they'd accept, and we have the opportunity to match it. But if for example a club offer 200k and we match it, it doesn't stop another club coming in and offering 400k. The selling club are under no obligation to sell to us, they just have to tell us of any bids.4 -

Fair enough. Either way the player still has a choice. Going to be interesting to see how his career develops vs our other young CBs.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Ok. I guess with him nearly out of contract, we weren't able to impose anything stricter.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Bit of a surprise but haven't really seen much to get too excited about. Think Zach Mitchell is the one to watch.3

Baby giraffe.
Good luck to him. Seems like a lovely lad, but I doubt we'll hear about him after this.0 -
Personally think he has bags of potential and apparently a very good attitude believe he will do well0

Delighted to see that. Think he has been injured most of this season. I think he has huge potential and could well rise back though the leagues if he stays clear of injury. Well done Deji.2

I'm going to watch AFC Wimbledon v Bromley next Saturday so I'll be looking out for Deji...when I'm not following the Orient v CAFC game on the phone!3
