Barry to Man City - sell-on clause?

[Beeneys gloves]

Apparently he is in talks with City over a move there, now assuming he does, have we still got a sell-on clause for him?

Theres something in a story on the Sunday Mercury website back in 2008 which says.

Brighton were also given a 15 per cent sell-on clause, meaning they could bank a further £2.1 million if Villa insist on a complete cash deal rather than a player exchange with Liverpool.

So could we be quids in if City stump up the cash?

 

[Frutos]

I think this has been asked before, and the answer is that we have no sell-on clause whatsoever.

Could be wrong, though.

 

[Bwian]

No!

 

[Mackenzie]

Ahhhh this old chestnut again.....

 

[Keeping The Dream Alive.]

Not again!

 

[Da Man Clay]

We accepted a cash settlement for our sell on fee quite a long time ago. We'll get nowt.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Nope.

The talks will be interesting

So you cant offer me European football of any kind, what reason would I want to join.

No, how will 200k do as a reason

I believe it is wrong - as confirmed by Insider last summer when the Barry/Liverpool story was at its' hottest. I believe that we took a lump sum off Villa when we were struggling a few years back, in return we waived our right to a sell-on cause.

That's a bugger then! Surprised he is going to man city though, maybe arsenal will enter the race

We cashed it in for 500k a few years back.

Bit of a mistake Uncle Dick

Though we probably needed the money at the time.

 

[Beeneys gloves]

Shame, thought we were in for a nice little bonus there, ah well.

........... and there was the possibility that he would be a one-club player. Or move on a Bosman.

 

[pasty]

Nope.

Indeed. Gareth "I'll only leave Villa for Champions League football" Barry will go down severely in my estimation if he joins City.

Did i read somewhere that Michael Standing is his agent now?

When you need the money you need the money.

Are you happy Falmer's being built? I dare say that £500K came in handy, maybe prevented a star player being sold, maybe resulted in a promotion or that extra season in the Championship?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

On the flip side, we should have sold the sell on clause that we placed on John Robinson, if the opportunity ever arose. I wouldn't say it was a mistake from Dick. Certainly if we needed the money at that time and there was no guarantee that he was going to move on. Besides, he hasn't even signed yet, so 'mistake' is entirely the wrong word anyway.
