suewhistle Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 Perhaps Under Armour will pay! Anyway, despite being old enough to remember Keegan's arrival, I don't think it's going to be us, boys and girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintchris23 Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 I've been told by someone at the club, someone who has exposure to transfer dealings, that it's very much a possibility and that there have been some very serious discussions regarding acquiring his services for the coming season.

BARCELONASAINT Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 honestly cannot believe for one minute we are even interested as the wages alone would he would be on would disrupt the harmony of the squad. And if i were to entertain this for one moment and except Saints were willing to pay mega bucks for him....then surely we would be better off paying big wages to Wanyama and Mane to keep them here??!!!

Lorne Malvo Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 I read that Zlatan signing for Utd would make up for the loss of revenue from missing the Champions League, just in Merchandise sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 If this were to happen, it would be our biggest shock transfer since Keegan. Personally, I think his ego doesn't fit with the club values Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webby Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 His agent said as much, as he isn't going to cost a transfer fee, he can barter for more in wages. So if you think he'd probably ask for 200k p/w usually, he's probably after 300k p/w +. There is no universe where we would ever pay a player that. 300k x 52 = 15,600,000 15m for one season....could be worth it. Just pay 10m up front as a signing on fee.

Pilchards Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 We got stung with Osvaldo and I can't see the club are going to make the same mistake again.

Zlatan is at the end of his career and we will not get any sell back on him. Would not touch with a barge pole. You can't compare Zlatan to Osvaldo. Zlatan has been the captain for several teams and is still one of the best strikers in the world. He's eccentric but that doesn't make him a lunatic like Osvaldo. The fact that there's no sell on value doesn't really matter since there's no transferfee. That said, it's more likely Bournemouth win the premier league next year then Zlatan signing for us. He still has his eye on one thing and one thing only, winning the CL. Therefore I don't think is likely he'll sign for Manu either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convict Colony Posted 28 May, 2016 Share Posted 28 May, 2016 (edited) Anyway from I what remember Zlatan is only looking for a 1yr deal before going to Miami and playing for Beckham's franchise when it launches as their marquee player so maybe the big clubs don't need the hassle for 1yr and the smaller clubs can use his standing more as a promotional tool, it seriously wouldnt be too mental if West Ham signed him for 1 yr to launch their stadium and put them "on the map" with the casual non english fan i definitely think they would get long term return on investment for a one off 15mil fee of wages. You've read it here first, we are not going to sign Zlatan, West Ham will to increase their "london team" profile in the new stadium.

oldskoolsi Posted 29 May, 2016 Share Posted 29 May, 2016 IF we had just built another 15k onto our stadium, I think the possibility of signing him would be worth being considered. However at this point we should to focus on buying players who will get us into the position of needing a stadium expansion. I don't tihkn one season form Zlatan would do that. He's not signing for us. (Although this may be at least partly said in the naive hope that because i said it wont happen, it will). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really do not understand people's obsession with a stadium expansion. We do not need it currently and adding an extra '15k' seats doesn't automatically change us from being a 'small' club to a 'big' club, it's performances on the pitch and whether or not the club achieves titles and cups.

There's only one reason to expand the stadium and that's to beat the skates because, surely, very soon, the bestest sleepiest giant there ever was is going to wake up and build that twelvety million seat underwater enormo-drome and we must never allow that to happen because, apparently, attendance means something...... However, Zlatan will sign Southampton because he is Zlatan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 1 June, 2016 Share Posted 1 June, 2016 Reading the report on the BBC site, Zlatan is clearly enjoying silly season: Responding to the transfer rumours, Ibrahimovic told reporters: "I want you to still write a lot of stories, so I get excited when I see them, because I want to see who is making up the best story. "When I'm tired of it, I'll let you know where I will go." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallagroth Posted 1 June, 2016 Share Posted 1 June, 2016 Were just finishing the contract hence the holdup. Every page has to be carved from a freshly felled tree in the new forest as Zlatan commands. Les also has to eat the raw heart of a New forest Pony at the signing point to prove to Zlatan that he is the prince that was promised. Apparently theres some tedious animal rights issues to be circumvented first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
