If that figure is correct then it is disappointing though maybe there’s a few add-ons in it too ? . Another way to look at it is at least we are breaking even out of this rather than him walking away for nothing in a while and the money might help us get another decent player in.Quote:

The boys just got a place in the team of the season in a league above our Standard. Find me another striker at that age who is available for 1 million playing in a top European league, I think you would really struggle.Quote:

Don't know the ins and outs of the deal, will wait to see what it actually is rather than speculated to be. Perhaps Hibs would take less upfront for a larger sell on % and take the gamble he has another good season in the top flight next year and a bigger club comes in. We don't know anything yet
Scott Tiffoney joins Killie on a two year deal ..

Dundee loose another player, they have a small poor squad.Quote:

I'd be amazed if they weren't relegated. Especially with Pressley now managing them. It's quite bizarre what's happened at Dundee and it all seems to have been planned.Quote:

Separate note, I’ve always thought Tiffoney looked like quite a handy player, who might have earned a gig on a bigger stage.
Post on the Dundee forum that some Hibs fan on twitter saying that Dundee are after Jair Tavares , can’t see it but with the way they’re going about things you never know i suppose 🤞Quote:

Did OK for a lower level club in the top division for a year in The Netherlands. Unless other clubs contact Hibs wanting Vente and bid a higher value, I reckon £1m is a decent return.
Will be lucky to break even given Roda will get a chunk.
The sceptic in me says that we never got close to 1 million for Melkersen.Quote:

Roda get a chunk of any profit. If we don't break even, they get nothing.Quote:

He was quoted as saying the fee was significantly higher than what we'd paid but I don't see any reason to doubt what the media were told. Hibs Observer said £1.2 plus a significant sell-on. Don't see why the club would exaggerate on this.Quote:
