Seems to be all over media we have put a price tag of £50m to sell. We have to pay Chelsea a 20% sell on clause…so £40m ish. Which would mean about £22m profit.

To sell or not to sell…..

That is the question!!

Why have we valued him at such a low price?

Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)

50m is too low.

Assuming we could sign Levi Cowill for c. 25m. I'd let Guehi go for 65/70m

He is on a five year contract , averaging £50 grand a week. Don’t see why we would consider selling at any price, but if we did I agree ,£70 million right now, there is no need to put a price on him,and we probably haven’t.
We have to get used to this, the media are always trying to sell our players, because a number of them will be desired by other clubs. As ever they like to think that means on the cheap.

I would be interested to know what your reliable sources are for this information because my understanding is:
1. The £50m figure is one the journos THINK may be enough to tempt us to sell
2. I am not aware of any sell-on clause. However, what I believe we did agree when we signed Guehi is that Chelsea would have the right to match any bid we did receive.
3. His contract runs till summer 2026 so we have no need to think of selling him this year unless we decide we want the money to boost our investment plans.

BTW, this thread should be under Palace talk as the transfer thread is for INWARD transfer talk. Perhaps the mod would kindly move it.

I didn’t know we had a sell on fee agreement with Chelsea but I do know that they have an option to match any offer we accept from another club to therefore buy him back if they wish.
