Tyler Roberts & Jonathon Leko

[Prando]

I see the press are suggesting that Marseille, Gooners and Dingles are all “expressing an interest” in Roberts. Whilst there will no doubt be some clause in the contract, shouldn’t we be involved in these alleged negotiations?

In Leko’s case, I wonder if we have the option to call him back as and when we may wish ?

My knowledge of these loan deal contracts is nil, so maybe I’m talking nonsense ?

Anyone able to inform me ?

Hi Prando, not sure about the loans. Tyler is leaving it all to agent, who has turned down a 5 year contract from Albion. Seems to me the agent is more interested what he is going to get. Anyone know what agent he has, wouldn't be surprised if it's the same as Sadio's

As stated, we've offered him a contract which he hasn't signed and we can't exactly force him to. I'd imagine he'd like some assurances regarding future appearances as well as a fair wedge of dough, be interesting to see if his agent re opens negotiations now that TP's gone.

He's VERY big mates with a certain Mr Berahino, as is Tahvon Campbell, another promising forward who's on loan at Solihull Moors. Tahvon doesn't appear to have made the same impression there as young Tyler has with the Saddlers, appearances and stats posted below.

Must admit I liked the look of Tahvon when he played against Rhyl F.C for the U23's during pre season, and thought he'd have done well on loan at a higher level than that afforded by Solihull Moors.

Don't know Leko's contract situation but after a bright start to life at Bristol City his performances dropped off significantly and he has come in for a lot of criticism re work rate and general lack of application. He appears to be struggling a little at the moment.

As you can see form the links posted Tahvon and Leko have different agents while Tyler's isn't listed on his Transfermarkt page. Saido's agent isn't listed on Transfermarkt either, but the chap who oversaw his move to Stoke is Saif Rubie who was suspended by the FA in 2006 over an 'administrative oversight' but had his suspension revoked following a small fine.

It will be interesting to see if this chap's name comes up when if Tyler moves/stays.

I was wondering how Leko was getting on. Surprised that it is not very well. I read that Tyler Roberts said he's knows nothing and is leaving it all to his agent. Don't like the sound of that

Leko started off very well and the City fans raved about him, but he has spent most of their recent games on the bench, i believe he is on a full season loan and can't be recalled and if i remember rightly he signed a contract extension last season so he won't be going anywhere, Harper is on a season loan and signed a pro contract before he went it appears Roberts is being touted around by his agent surly if he was that good he would have been poached by either Chelsea or Liverpool by now.

As far as Roberts goes we will get compensation if he leaves as he has come through the academy. Whether being out of contract affects the amount we get I'm unclear on.

[OptimisticBaggie]

If he goes to a domestic club it will go to a tribunal, but if he goes abroad we will just get a standard fee which is currently £268,000
