Why on earth are these kind of stories even printed at this point?
The window doesnt open for weeks...............
and, agree the poster above - we need him more than we need £1.5m at the moment

The only surprising thing about it is that it’s not Rangers he’s linked with, given we play them this week.

If he's linked with Rangers before the weekend (and it wouldn't surprise me) it is more likely to be in the Daily Record.

Decent football section with good stats and David Provan's page has comic value.

For example Scott Brown signing for Celtic was announced well before the transfer window opened.
Not a pre contract but an actual transfer. Played against Celtic in his last game and scored the winner at Easter Road.
Was registered first day of the transfer window.

I don’t think £1.5m with some really good add ons is as ridiculous as some are suggesting. I think we will get a bit more but it’ll be that ball park.
Fwiw I can see a lot of huge clubs being linked with him but then him going to a smaller one where he has a chance of game time. Similar to Hickey going to Bologna when there was talk of him going to Bayern and AC Milan.
He’s had a taste of first team football now, does he really want to go back to playing development football for a huge club?

He's not even 19 yet and hasn't even reached 30 appearances for us.
History tells you that's not too far away from what young Scottish players often sell for. There's similarities there with Aaron Hickey and it's believed he was sold for roughly that amount.
We may get around £2 million for him just now but I would be surprised if it was much more than that.

First of all, has that maybe helped him relax? How will he cope in front of thousands of fans? Might skoosh it but the pressure could get to him, nobody knows yet.
Secondly, he’s just had a season playing in front of no fans, I’m sure now he’s got a taste of first team football he’ll be desperate to play in front of big crowds next season. Joining a Leicester or Man City I’d say he’s got no chance.
In a completely random made up guess I could see him going to someone like Norwich, Swansea, West Brom...... someone around that sort of level where he’d get a good pay rise, high profile but also have a chance if first team football.

Doug has much longer left and we should be holding out for much more. British players will demand a premium now with work permits required following Brexit. A lot of these clubs are signing potential rather than the finished article. Physically he fits the bill as well.
I think we should hold out for a lot more with add ons.

Looks like the Premiership clubs are all looking to the Scottish market for their own Tierney or Robertson!

Media linking are players because we're playing Rangers or Celtic is one of these myths that has grown over the years. If nothing else, it would serve no purpose, as there's no way a player is so weak that he'd let being linked in a newspaper to Leicester affect his performance in a Hibs v Rangers game.

Much less with add-ons like Birmingham winning the Premier League and Champions League.

Think he needs another couple of seasons with us. Seems to have his head screwed on and won't move yet. Very young to be be moving to another country and culture.
