Benitez Celtic

Kieran Maguire: "The difference with Southampton is that they wouldn’t have qualified for the same loans because they have been losing money in recent years and they wouldn’t have ticked the good financial management box." "The Bank of England is looking at the risk involved when it considers these loans." “Also from a risk point of view, they are having a fantastic season but if you were looking at the start of the season at the pool of clubs who could potentially go down, Southampton would probably be in that group." “They have been fantastic so far and are deservedly at the top end of the division, but if I was a lender I might be thinking: ‘What happens if Danny Ings leaves in the summer? He’s been instrumental for them.’ If he and Ward-Prowse leave, you could see them being down there again.” https://www.footballinsider247.com/southamton-news-finance-expert-banks-see-saints-as-high-risk/

Any idea what happened to last Sunday's match (17th)? We were supposed to have played.

“I hear all different things said about Danny Ings’ contract. It’s obviously a delicate situation, I think the club realises it’s a delicate situation. This is their star player and you could be going into the summer where he’s got a year left on his contract. “Southampton have offered him a contract that would see him become their highest-earning player. That offer’s on the table and it hasn’t been signed yet. So why hasn’t it been signed? Does Danny Ings think he can go back to a big club? Does he think that a Man City might come in for him? Maybe they might, maybe they won’t. Is that something that’s holding his contract up? If you’re Danny Ings, do you sign a contract that you know, with your injury record and your age – he’s 28, so if he signs a four-year deal, is a Man United going to want to pay £80-85 million on a player that’s had two ACL injuries and will have absolutely no sell-on value whatsoever? The answer is no, they won’t. “Let’s say he gets to the summer and he’s got one year left and he’s not going to sign the contract, will United pay £30 million for Danny Ings? For a striker that can come in and do a job and you know he’s going to score you goals. United have got that money to spend, so yeah, they absolutely would, I would imagine. “He’s a good option, he’s an England international and he’s fantastic, his work-rate is fantastic, everything about Danny, as a footballer, is brilliant. And he’s a brilliant guy as well. So they’re the kind of dilemmas that you’ve got that make it a bit more nuanced than just ‘will he sign or won’t he sign.'”

Ings wants to join Man Utd?!? https://www.thefocus.news/football/report-tottenham-target-has-his-eye-on-move-to-manchester-united/
