Ajax keen on bassey. Brighton still mentioned but interest cooled until cucurella sale.

And they are cash rich after some sales. Really Don’t want the guy to go but if the bidding starts at £25m then we’d have to let it happen. Not sure he’d want to go to Holland though, could see him being in EPL.

I'm not too sure Ajax model spends the type of cash we would want, I'd be astounded if they would part with that type of cash.

I would agree, start at £25 million, sizeable sell on. Need to start understanding the value of our players.
I understand that it’s a different scenario, but still feel we were low balled with Aribo, if it was £6 million, plus add ons.

Think the first bid is between 15-20 and need to remember the market we've had. I'd say 22 with a good sell on.

would Ajax spend that kind of money- thought they were more of a selling club?

If he goes to Ajax and has a good season they double their money.

I'd also like to think that with our coaching staff and Vos being close with Ajax we could maybe get the best possible deal for both parties.

Man u buying ajax defender £45 mill so £25 mill for bassey there still in prifit and got a good player

But hopefully gers tell them all were to go unless it £35 mill if he was at leeds watford villa etc he would be getting sold for about £40 mill.

Would also be a big dent in our European aspirations if he was to go. Need to get his contract extended and improve terms and get another good year out of him and then inevitably he will go at the end of the season. Hopefully not now.

Brighton will not pay £25 million for Bassey I can assure everybody of that.

Ajax have just spent £30 million on a player.


11.) 14 Jul 2022

I. N. T. R - - but he's NOT at Leeds Watford Villa etc!
Given recent dealings - I think we would take 10-12mill with the famous add-ons, which will keep the lights on for years.

Yeah they can spend that with the sale of Lisandro if that goes through.

Really really don’t want to lose Bassey this season I honelsty think he is irreplaceable for us right now he’s getting better and better and if we make champions league and he has another great season he could be goi g for £40 million next year
He’s too good in my opinion to let go just now and we could t replace the lad with his quality he’s shown
Honestly I will be absolutely gutted if we lose him this season.

20 million is the figure i seen.

Ajax just bought Steven Bergwijn from Spurs for near enough 30m so they aren't scared to spend the cash for the right player.


16.) 14 Jul 2022
14 Jul 2022 13:02:47
BAR would agree normally they don’t spend big but they have just forked out £26m for Bergwin from Spurs so could be in the market to buy on a couple of players.

He’s not going to Ajax. Even the original report seems to be more of a case of the reporter putting 2 and 2 together (ie Ajax selling a CB / LB for a lot of money and probably wanting a replacement, and Bassey being a CB / LB) . Ajax don’t tend to spend the amounts of money we would want for Bassey on their signings and Gio has just come out in an interview and talked about now not being the time for Bassey to move on. I doubt he would say those kind of things unless he was pretty sure that Bassey wasn’t wanting to leave just now.

Bassey won't go, not with the defense we have right now. We couldn't replace him with the same quality for £25m and we need him for the CL qualifiers which woukd be for more lucrative financially then selling a massive assett.

Ajax have already spent 36 million don’t see them spending another 25 million.

Rangers will be offered £16m plus sell on and performance related bonuses taking it to just under £20m if he meets all the bonus criteria.

My apologies tjrc

I've just been informed ajax spent 30 million on a winger never thought they would spend so much outlay with their model.

The also spent 11m on the AZ left back Owen Wijndal. 22yrs old. Sounds like they have a replacement.

Just lazy journalism, they see a left back leave, they think is it a feasible destination for bassey, and print their tosh.

just made it up john, strange how some people come out with the entire details of a clubs business, even clubs they know nothing about.

I can’t see Ajax offering over £20m.
What worries me here is getting a good replacement in and ready for the CL games.
We already have Hellander, Roofe, Hagi and Morelos out.
Amazing business if we get over £20m though.

Ajax have spent a few quid recently because of sales haller cost them a few quid people saying they don’t spend big need to do research compared to us they spend big.
