  • With an option does that mean we have first dibs or if he does well can another club nip in and nab him.
    I suppose if we meet their valuation he's our's...
    That's why I'm asking. Can someone offer more and nab him?
    I would have thought not, that's the whole idea of "option to buy*
  • His last move was a loan with an option to buy deal that fell through, so makes sense this is the same. Sensible business by the club this.
  • Happy with the loan as it does seem that he gets himself into 'disciplinary' issues!

    Or it’s all Nathan has the budget for?, hope it’s the club being sensible reason.

    His last move to Lech Poznan wasn't was it? A recent loan to another club just collapsed though which I think included an option to buy. Bratislava was it?

    Partizan Belgrade
  • If he does well doesn’t that just mean a Championship club with a far bigger budget comes in and offers £5-10m and a huge wage?

    I’m not convinced any options will protect us from that if the player wants the move and the selling club can get a much bigger fee.
  • Loan with option to buy is actually a great deal. Could be pants, could be amazing. We’re covered either way. Would also (presumably) push back a potential fee to next summer, meaning we’ve still kept our powder dry for another midfielder perhaps? 
    I imagine the loan with the option yo buy has a lot to do with his disciplinary issues...

    Cawley says Ouma will be a loan with option to buy.
    Still got £8 million to spend then
    All the signs aren’t matching up with this theory,# powder has gone missing!!
    I think someone’s been sniffing it.
  • Ouma signing, just wish one of the ITK lot had said.

    Or it gives him money to buy the wing back he needs 
    What the other potential loan? 
  • I see that the keeper Millwall had on loan from Sunderland is going to Wrexham for £8 million. Madness.

    That’s not how it works, if we have an option to buy at a price in the loan deal only we can exercise that option. Effectively we will have the choice to sign him, we can then theoretically immediately sell him at a higher price to another interested party if we wished.

    I'm buzzing to have a new midfield pairing. No "dissing" to Cov & Doch, both are triers, but we lacked physicality and quality in the middle last season. With Chalobah and Ouma, we might have added both. 
  • ITK 1 - WIOTOS 0 - there’s life in the game still - Cawley caught napping as well

    Fair enough, hope you’re right

    If it's an option to buy at an agreed price, it'll be contractual. Just like Madrid's buyback clause of Nico Paz, they triggered it, bought him from como for 9 million and sold him back to como for 60mil. If he has a stormer, we can effectively trigger the option clause and then sell him straight away

    Might as well it’s not being used otherwise!!

    Ouma's chant was already determined the other day 
    If it was determined to be anything other than this I will be dissappointed

    Is that Brazilliance? 

    *edit i see at least two other posters have commented on the uncanny similarity between the fella singing this and Sergio Mendes...

    Depends if it's written in a contract. If it is, the price will already have been agreed.
