[Football] Jamie Murphy - loaned to Rangers, sale likely in the Summer

[WATFORD zero]

Do you guys think this transfer is worth the risk to us? We all know that Murphy is a rangers fan, and from his point of view it would be his dream move, but looking on the internet it seems that Rangers is struggling to get the first payment together and might be in a bit of trouble financially. We might not get the full amount if this deal goes through.

I would expect there to be some sort of standard clause on contracts that if the buying club defaults on payment, registration would revert to the selling club. Have certainly seen similar on significant contracts (different businesses but same principle).

They can afford a winter trip to Florida.

I don't know anything about Rangers but it seems all is not well there (if you read some parts of the internet that is).

All has not been well there for quite some time now.

If that is true then I guess it is worth the risk.

Medical on Friday but deal still not completed and not part of the squad flying out to Florida. Could be something, could be nothing

Surely the fee and method of payment would have been agreed between the clubs before he was allowed to go for a medical. Could it be that his agent is seeking more money and we want Rangers to pay that and they don't?

 

[BensGrandad]

Interesting to see the fee quoted is £1m down rising to £2M.with add ons.

Yep, as in not for several years.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Interesting to see the fee quoted is £1m down rising to £2M.with add ons.

With players, particularly forwards, changing clubs for vastly inflated fees, I think Rangers are piocking up a bit of a bargain here.

 

[BensGrandad]

I agree and we are not losing loo much on our initial outlay for him. I dont include wages as they would have been to any player whether it be him or somebody else that we signed for the squad.

Wouldn't surprise me if this falls through due to Robertson trying to bring this down or ask for the upfront payment to be paid in instalments

He might be back at Brighton by Monday to be honest.

Probably needs to pack his bags, find somewhere to live, sort out visas, etc?

According to twitter - this seems to be the sticking point.

Brighton want more upfront and reduced add-ons.

Six month loan deal according to the media up here.

Rangers are not the rich club they used to be though. They can't splash the cash so much these days

Unsurprising given Rangers past financial dealings.

Not sure they were rich, just behaved like they were.
