Naisys Tackle Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Italian side Lecce. The 27-year-old Albania international made 44 appearances in an impressive first season with the Dons following his move from MTK Budapest. According to a report in Albania, Ramadani is “on the verge” of completing a transfer to the Serie A side. But the Press and Journal understands Aberdeen have not been contacted over a potential move for the defensive midfielder. The Dons have already made five signings during a busy summer window with the arrival of Graeme Shinnie, Leighton Clarkson, Ester Sokler, Nicky Devlin and Rhys Williams.

Issue is benfica who own 50% stake Something comical about that, they own half a player and they want to trade him for a whole player. That aside I would suspect Hagi to probably be on 20K a week or so, the sheep going to pay that? And in addition to that I would also suspect Hagi would have zero interest in signing for them for multiple reasons. Even if he wanted a move he would sit on the bench in Glasgow and wait for something else rather than go to the sheep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the claim that his wages ratchet up if Celtic refuse an offer of £25m for him suggests that agents believe that is a realistic fee for Celtic to receive. Those wages and transfer fees (if true) really help illustrate the financial gulf we are dealing with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
