Molineux News reporting Wolves asking price for Silva this summer will be £15m. No surprises here and clearly puts him well out of our price range. Would like to see him stay but can’t see it, even on another loan deal next season if Wolves are looking to cash in. Hope he leaves with 2 winners medals in his pocket having secured the treble.

His wage puts him out of out reach cooper, wouldn't say know to another loan tho but can't see that unless he signs another deal for Wolves.

Why would you want him to stay? He's terrible. 2 good games in 3 months.

Why would i want him to stay, maybe the reason is he's a very good footballer tjn.

Nothing like negativity TJN u sure your name shouldn't be 1888 at the end.

He's not "terrible", that's just not true!


6.) 24 Mar 2024

He is a good player - but maybe too much luxury for that price - at 15 mill would be looking for at least 4 players and LBH we need to strengthen in many areas- like the boy but I think a loan is best we could expect again.

15m was what I expected them to ask. Sima will be slightly less, but still out of our budget. Let's hope Cortes recovers as for me he looks the most exiting player we've scouted for years. Exciting times if similar to him can be found.

If wolves sell silva rangers get a percentage of the deal for putting him in shop window. Clever business imo.


10.) 24 Mar 2024

How do you know that, John? Excuse my ignorance, but is that the norm with loan players?


11.) 24 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 17:09:45
RoR it’s a changing world. Can write anything into contract. My understanding a tidy sum. In line with what we getting from bayern for tillman

I have my sources but also printed in a Birmingham paper.


12.) 24 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 17:13:09
Surely that must be specific to the contract John? That's not the norm, certainly never heard of it before. That's not to say its not the norm of course?


13.) 24 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 18:00:01
RTg had u heard off the Tillman deal b4. Where we get % when they sell

It’s a changing world is football, yes it will be specific to silva deal, not likely to be in evert deal we sign.

Superb intel John and potentially great business from the board.


15.) 24 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 20:47:40
Yes we have heard of deals like Tillman before but the Tillman deal was completely different though as we had agreed first option and if Bayern decided against that then they paid us compensation. Its completely different to what you claim is in the Silva deal.


16.) 24 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 21:17:26
Nah, I'm calling BS on that rumour, John, sorry. That, I'm afraid, is never happening!


17.) 25 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 21:36:15
Clickbait site "Rangers Review " were running this about Tillman 6 days ago, rangers to get a windfall if he signs for PSV, don't shoot the messenger?.


18.) 25 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 21:41:04
10% off any sell on also being reported across various sites, expecting 1.2mill apparently, don't know if its true or accurate, yahoo news, RR and others, so maybe there is something in clickbait info.


19.) 25 Mar 2024
24 Mar 2024 21:45:10
Another is Bavarian Footbal Works, PSV option to buy 12.5m but Bayern can cancel for 3m, Daily record and Sun also running windfall story.


20.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 05:35:36
Tjn why not get him back on loan, he holds the ball well, doesn't hide and always positive, every player has bad games, at tge level we play at unfortunetly we are never going to have the "perfect" player, we look for raw talent and nurture it hopefully making a profit on the way and silva fits that mould even if its just a loan.


21.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 05:38:38
Ps I think going by your negativity tjn, have you spelled your handle right. The second and 3rd letters need moved up 1 letter. And the date is 16 years early. ? ?.


22.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 05:47:41
Sorry that should read " the 2nd and 3rd letter need to go down 1 letter"


23.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 08:25:46
Fort 1m from Bayern for breaking loan agreement, 10% of his transfer fee, about 2.2m all in for Tillman mate.


24.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 08:51:22
RTR Why do you think it's BS?

They have an asset they have spent upwards of 40m for in fee and wages on.

They don't have a hope in hell of recouping that if he's not playing.

We're effectively advertising their asset for them across Europe.

Surely you can see how that contractual clause could come to be?


25.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 09:11:17
Yes I'm aware Star, cheers bud?.

Athole well understood.


27.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 11:09:01
Athole and people wonder why we post less

Least I’m excited about two bosmans we met last week, hopefully we get them signed.


28.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 11:17:47
I believe it's BS, athole, because I don't believe it's happening!

What happens if we don't help Wolves sell him? Is there penalties? Far too messy! Who, in their right mind, would agree to this? Were we the only team interested in him? If not, did the rest of the teams demand a "shop window" windfall?


29.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 11:28:42
Also, "across Europe"?! What, 2 matches in Europa league?! Hmmmmmm?! If the boy stayed in EPL, or went abroad to Germany, France, Italy, Portugal, he'd have got a lot more exposure throughout Europe than what he got in 2 games in EL. ??.


30.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 12:35:43
John one of the a lcb mate?


31.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 13:04:37
Guess we all need to wait n see what pans out with Silva, contracted to 2026, poss loan extension or Wolves sell him.


32.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 13:56:06
Got to be honest I do not believe that such a clause is in the Silva loan deal.

This 'exposure' clause is completely different to the Tillman deal. The Tillman deal did not have an 'exposure clause'.


33.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 14:14:12
So why we getting a % of Tillmans sell on fee on top of the £1m already received as a buyout, widely reported, and is it not possibly in Silva deal also, I don't know if it is but it may be as John suggests, Bayern also have a buyout of the 12.5m option to buy for 3m, not much difference in the background of the deals, may be wrong but as I said earlier, wait and see.


34.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 14:37:49
It's a completely different deal, Fork.
We had an option to buy Tilman, but because Bayern moved the goal posts, and decided they wanted to loan him back out, and sell for more than what was agreed with us, then we are due a compensation payment as they reneged on the original agreement. Completely different than this supposed "shop window" Silva windfall.


35.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 15:17:01
I did say that I did not know if that was in the Silva deal RTR. I just opined it may be similar to the Tillman deal, nothing more, why I said we need to wait and see bud.


36.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 15:19:56
I never mentioned a Silva windfall btw, it was Tillman we will receive 10% of sell on from bayern on top of the 1m.


37.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 15:53:56
Yeah Fork its two completely different deals mate. The silva clause that John has described is in no way similar to that of the Tillman deal.

The Tillman deal is a sell on %

The Silva deal according John is a % for exposure.


38.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 15:56:22
I wasn't talking about you, it was about John's rumour.


39.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 16:17:18
The apologies to u o crabbit one??.


40.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 16:19:21
Yes RTG I'm aware bud, but just like some I'm wondering if there is something in it, I don't know, but if there is then good 4 us.


41.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 16:25:03
RTR - Wolves didn't know we would only have had 2 more ties in EL. We have been in 2 finals in relatively recent times.

Youre making assumptions silva had options in the EPL or other big leagues.

Lets be honest, we can't entice top players away if the big keagues are interested.

Truth is, you and i have absolutely zero idea if its true. John has a source of info who intimated it might be the case. that's good enough for me to believe its PLAUSIBLE. that's all.

Instead of rubbishing it in your usual belligerent way, why not be open minded enough to give our directors some credit that they might just be really savvy businessmen that know more than we do.


42.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 17:14:33
Don't get me wrong Fork, I too hope there is as it means more money for us to invest in the team. It just doesn't sound right. It would be very unique if true.


43.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 17:52:08
As I said RTG we will just need to wait n see bud?.


44.) 25 Mar 2024
25 Mar 2024 23:20:47
We had first option to buy Tillman Bayern changed the goal posts silva is a straight loan no option to buy so we won’t receive anything from Wolves.


45.) 26 Mar 2024

Can't hack it at World beater Wanderers so let's not fuss too much kiddies.

He's only 21 and a very good footballer Colin.


47.) 27 Mar 2024
27 Mar 2024 13:11:21
Wolves have more chance of getting a good return on their investment while he's playing with us. I don't think wolves rate him much, just maybe we can get another loan. Unless that is another european team want him.


48.) 28 Mar 2024
28 Mar 2024 07:27:17
Dado another loan takes him close to being able to talk to anyone, contracted to 2026 at Wolves I believe. They won't want that.
