    All into Roland's pocket.

    Which could hopefully persuade him to sell at a more attractive price due to reducing his losses. Wishful thinking I realise.
    I might be wrong but I don't think that him pocketing the money means the debt is reduced.

    He pocketed the money he (charlton) paid himself (standard) for Tony Watt and that didn't effect the asking price for SL
    Everytime he sells a youth product for a profit (and then another comes through - Aribo this time) will only convince Duche that long term he is onto a winner.
    I completely agree. This just proves to Roly that he is on to a good thing. He doesn't give a sh*t about attendances and league position, just where the next Gomez, lokman, aribo is coming from. Roly doesn't do failure, and to him he is not failing. He will overlook the disastrous signings that have had to have their contracts cancelled or never play, tucudean, ba etc.
  • Fair play to the academy staff for helping to produce a player like Lookman in what can only be a pretty torrid and testing times.

    Not really a product of the academy as has only been with us a couple of years, part of which he has been in the first team.
  • As for the comparisons in price with previous deals, I think where we are no longer involved we've lost sight of prem money.

    When Shelvey went the TV deal was £1.7bn, before that when we sold Parker for £10m and Bent for £16.5m it was £1.0bn

    Iit's now £5.2bn.

    There is obscene money in the game.

    Even so, it's a bit of history. The first ever third tier player sold for an 8 figure sum.
    It's what the regime dreamt of when they took over.
  • £11m and he can't take a corner......

    Pretty sure Ox was more?
  • If lookman going means Roly buggers off then that's got to be worth at least 100 million in the future.

    6m was the record for league one when Gayle went to Palace from Posh.

    Didn't Assombalonga go for £8 million?

    Can't be much of an agent if he does not have Ade's mobile to text him and has to communicate by twitter!
  • Really disappointed. Ademola is Mr January on my Official Charlton Calendar. Month not even started before he is on his way. At least had hoped we'd get a bit further into the transfer window.

    Or a freekick...!

    Roly more likely to stay as this deal shows his player farm plan works. All the while the talent comes through the door, Mr D will be rubbing his hands...and not leaving.

    Better than him being November 2017, you won't even remember who he is by then !

    hopefully that's not the calendar for departures

    I remember when Delph was playing really well for Villa, and a regular in the England team. Then he moved to Man City, hardly played, didn't play in the Euros...

    Lot's of posters are saying that the team isn't going to see much of this transfer fee. Surely a pay day like this will encourage Roland to protect our academy status by investing to get us promoted. He's got to be sweating that if we're not in a higher division we're unlikely to sign the lucrative talent. The player farm is probably the only reason for him to give a toss either way.

    He is ill and will be back against Millwall. How dare you lot keep banging on that KM tells lies. HE IS STAYING!!!

    Blimey, that's a bit bizarre. Some of them are not impressed at all..

    I spotted two slagging off the fact that he was born in Nigeria yet changed his name so he would be eligible for England U20s... he was born in Wandsworth FFS!

    I like your thinking there, unfortunately I'm not sure if the silly ol' git will just take this as evidence that it's sustainable at League One too - all whilst being able to buy in cheaper players for the first team.
