Found this from a Dutch journo. Sorry if already posted.



Stefan Coerts ‏@StefanCoerts
Virgil van Dijk's agent has stressed the defender wants to leave #Groningen for #Brighton. Feels FCG should accept offer in region of €3m.

Stefan Coerts ‏@StefanCoerts
Given Van Dijk's contract situation, his age, potential & Groningen's position in league table, I'd say a €4m bid could be needed.

I thought he was a defender he could of been the striker we needed? Hope we sign him he is a big bugger ?

Why? It was posted that we were interested in him, that turns out to be true. We've made 2 offers, and they've been turned down. I don't see what's stupid if we're unable to get him.

Christ he looks good in that video. A free goal scoring center half. I hope we can pull this off now.

So we want him, he wants to play for us, we just need to haggle a deal. Is that right?

That just about sums it up..

It looks that way.

Thats about it. Have a horrible feeling they want more than we're willing to pay and will look to take their chance ona bigger transfer in the summer.

All depends how skint they really are,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,or if they are at all.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Marvellous. I trust Tony

 

[HastingsSeagull]

What page is the signing going to be announced on? (93)
Who'll be at the airport or restaurant with their camera phone? (CB)

These are the questions that need to be answered! (and my guesses)

 

[forumwayseagull]

Reckon we will agree undisclosed fee...about 2.75 million..

Can't really tell much from YouTube videos usually with a combination of having seen him strike a ball, the fact that he is in the Dutch under 21's and we are bidding 2 million + I'm gathering he is pretty special. Not to mention the 3 premier league clubs being linked with him

 

[dingodan]

If the player wants to leave his club, and he wants to go to a particular club who are making offers for him, it is very difficult for the club to stop him going, and if they do it's often counter productive.

I can only see them eventually taking our best and final offer in the next couple of days.

I don't know how ad-ons work, but could we not increase the fee based on clean sheets when he plays? I know he is not a GK, but at this important time of the season if we pay a bit more based on results it will likely be well worth the money.

If he signs, in my excitement I may very well pull something off, quite literally.

We need Michael Kuipers to kidnap him only joking but he could help persuade him to come to us .

 

[Mackenzie]

He's like the lovechild of Patrick Kluivert and Steve Foster.
