McGinn Signs New Villa Deal - Nae Luck Hibs!

[N Lincs Jambo]

As it says on the tin. He'll be 34 when this deal expires so looking very unlikely Hibs will get a huge sell-on from him now.

[Lord Beni of Gorgie]

Nice work Meatball

[gjcc]

Value has halved since may last year. He’s on a steep downward trajectory. 
Villa have done well out of him. 

[Hømme]

They've been waiting for years for him to move on.

 

Good on him for his loyalty

Aye, that arse is well worn out now

[Mikey1874]

Gradually has scored more goals for Villa every season he has been there. His impact isn't diminishing.

The only real value they might get out of him is if he returns to Easter Road in his twilight years.

He almost joined ourselves in our darkest days, we couldn't stump up the 160k and he went to Hibs, thankful the way its worked out really. Was good Aberdeen got nothing further out of Miovski, perhaps Ramsay too unless they get a successful loan in, Ferguson and Ramadani seems to have calmed down too.

[Mikey1874]

Hibs can go down for his testimonial.

[OmiyaHearts]

Those idiots will buy him back for £1m when he's 34, to try and obtain a sell-on fee.

Think you're in the wrong forum 

[RustyRightPeg]

He’s made a ridiculously good career for himself and has been a bedrock of Villa and Scotlands rise over the last 5/6 years. 
 

Credit to him. 
 

Cheesing they’ll get next to nothing out of him now though, they were waiting on that 40/50m move.

Is this not the laugh at the hobos forum? I don’t mind threads like this.

[jamboinglasgow]

It does make me chuckle the thought that we may have got more from our terrible sell on clause of Hickey than Hibs will get for McGinn's sell on.

I like him, best Scottish player in a generation.  Couldn't help thinking I hope he didn't do too well so he sold for mega money, that's gone now.  Hope he has a brilliant remainder of career.

Another upcoming transfer budget they have to adjust…….

[Jamdub]

Yet another player Sellik would not open the biscuit tin for thankfully and the guy has been a great player for Villa and Scotland and the wee team will get diddly squat for any sell-on.

[Cisc0 K1d]

He really has done fantastic, I thought he was pretty good at Hibs but he kicked on so much at both Aston Villa and Scotland to levels beyond I thought he was capable off.   Pretty good all round technically but his secret sauce is probably just his sheer hard work and his strength (mainly in his rear end), he can also fairly strike the ball and has a right good  knack of getting on the end of goalscoring chances from midfield (maybe Beni & Devlin should study him). 

 

He is Mr consistent and rarely has a bad game, good luck to him, probably just as well for us and him he never went to Celtic.

 

I wonder what he does with all those EPL wages he has earned, he seems like the most normal down to earth Scottish guy ever and the opposite of a Jack Grealish like character, not hat there is anything wrong with Grealish he is just the first flash looking player that came to mind.  

 

     

[The Gorgie]

Signing a new contract doesn't mean they won't sell him, just means they'll get a higher fee if they do decide to move him on.

[Mikey1874]

Will be 10 years if fulfills the contract. Might be unique.

 

 

[skacel103]

Might still sell him. Selling him for 20 million and only getting 16 million as 20 percent sell on to hibs: might put them off. Villa will prob keep him now.

Not just as a player but also as a team leader, motivator and icon.

 

The sort of player every club dreams of attracting or developing, and therefore one that it is less likely that Villa will get rid off. Lubbly jubbly.

John will have made quite a few million now I’d say. A sustained career at a club like Villa is not to be sniffed at.

[chubby1973]

Doesn't the signing of a new contract mean the sell on clause disappears, with it being part of his previous contract as part of the sale?

Realistically though I can't see anyone coming and actually forking out on him. He's done a good job there, and for Scotland, but is far from being an elite level player really. And at 31, could argue he's not going to improve. Slight chance some Saudi mob come in and pay what Villa want but I doubt that.

[Mister T]

The pot of gold at the end of the rainbow just gets further and further away.

They might eventually get him on a free. He liked to stick his arse out and fall over so he'll be a perfect addition to their troop of tumbling superstars.

Great. I had seen earlier he was wanting to stay a AV, thus scuppering any payday for the shite.

Capable of.  🙂. 👍

 

He is actually quite a good player, to be fair to your post.

 

 

[naeclue]

McGinn has been a great signing for Villa. I'm surprised they never got a decent bid for him.  Presumably he'll get a testimonial - not many players last 10 years at the same club.

 

 

[Pasquale for King]

I thought the slavering inbred ***** wanted to go to Celtic 😆

[Tynecastle Valhalla]

Good player.

 

Nice to see a Scot doing so well in the Prem.

He'd have been another scott brown if he went there and totally showed brown up; not as a 5h1tebag, although he was that, but as someone that was 5h1te in comparison, therefore stayed in the celtic pond; good decision for broonie

I think he's already signed a new contract since the move, but h1bby5 seem to believe that it's still in effect

 

i reckon there's a good chance it expired and h1b5 would cross the bridge when they came to it if he's sold on 

 

Regardless, I think villa will keep him until he hangs up the boots as a symbol of their recovery from the doldrums 

[il Duce McTarkin]

Cracking player and seems a good lad.

Good on him.

Jack Grealish gives plenty to various charities and also does loads of work as an ambassador for cerebral palsy, the condition his sister lives with. He's also Principal Ambassador for Special Olympics GB.

Nah, it won't be part of their contract with him, there would have been a contract put in place with Hibs when they bought him. Otherwise every team could sign a player with an agreed sell-on fee to the selling club, then give the player a new contract on the same terms with the sell-on written out the very next day.

Unlike Hibs, John McGinn is playing in Europe tonight.

[Smithian]

Maybe the sell-on fee was the friends the Hibees made along the way?
