Why Spurs shouldn't pay quoted prices
1 min read
The blast from 23-year-old Jordan Ayew towards his club Lorient about pricing him out of a move to Aston Villa demonstrates those within the game know the rough price player can move for.
Clubs tell players, they tell agents and agents speak to other clubs indicating a guide price for their client. Clubs therefore, discuss fees within this region and not the sometimes silly figures quoted. The action of Lorient also indicates that it depends where a player is being sold make a difference to his price. If he is being sold to a Premier League club then they can up the price given the money over here and that is what appears to have happened in this case.
Every club is entitled to get the best price they can for a player, but it does rather show why Spurs shouldn't just pay a quoted fee as some fan suggest.

"It is incomprehensible. I was told that I could leave for 12million Euros, but now they are asking for 10m in pounds with two million in bonuses, which makes up about 17m Euros. What the hell!"
