Alexandro Bernabei

Some players just not suited to our league or style of play. This seems to be the case.

Like a few that have been here and struggled. Not a bad player it's just not for them.

 

I'd prefer an upgrade on Valle to be honest as I don't think he's the finished article just yet and is still a bit lightweight

 

Get as much as we can..

We're definitely turning a profit by the looks of it so all good..

 

I'd be aiming for at least double what we've paid, doesn't sound like internacional afford it either way.

As good as he's done over there, he's clearly done here, would be selling him rather than giving him another chance.

 

Bits and pieces from a few different articles make me wonder if this talk of 10m is from the option to buy. I wonder if we have learned from the Jack Hendry move and made 10m the option to buy price just so we wouldn't get ripped off if the loan worked well, but not actually expecting it to get taken up and that we'd need to renegotiate it at the end of the deal.

Whatever the situation is I doubt we are getting 10m for him, but it's looking like we should make a profit, which is better than I expected at least.

 

It sure does look like we are actually going to be able to make a profit on Bernabei which is incredible considering how far off it he was with us.

 

I reckon we might get an upgrade on Taylor and keep Valle....

 

Hopefully

 

Valle I wouldn’t get the hopes up for. Barca rate him, and had him as an option going into this season, he wanted a loan for more experience and didn’t want the transfer option in it. Rumours about them recalling him, which I don’t quite believe but shows the way he’s viewed in Spain that.

He’s here with a view of playing for Barcelona next season. He won’t consider it an option staying.

 

Great business if that’s the case. Any profit on this dud is a miracle.

 

Can I ask you about Alexandro Bernabei, he's been getting all of his plaudits. He's obviously maybe been out of people's minds a wee bit but he's going to come back into contention here soon is there a chance of maybe cutting it a second time around, perhaps?

I think it's great that he's gone away and done well and sometimes you just find that. I think he'd been here for a period of time it hadn't worked out as probably what he or the club would have wanted and sometimes that happens you go away, you go back into a different culture or a different life and back into obviously South America for him and the reports that I hear is that he's done well, but there's nothing more to add than that. He'll finish his spell there and then we'll look at that and see where that's at come January.

 

So he is due to come back to us in January?
