We have 20% of any profit so could be as much as £1.2 million. It will at least give us some leeway in the January window, so let’s hope it happens.

Would we get anything if they did a "loan fee" instead?

No but it doesn’t mention a loan. Not really in anyone’s interest to loan him out he’s well down the pecking order.

Lingy has previously stated we have a 20% sell on for Alzate in one of his interviews.

Recently I think he was talking to the Outlook podcast. He was asked about transfers and said he always has a clause for sell ons, included and sometimes appearances. He then name checked Alzate and said in Stevens sale we had a clause to give us 20% of any profit. I can’t be arsed to trawl back and find it but you can have a look if you like.

I’d really like to believe it , wonder if anyone else heard the interview, I certainly didn’t heard many times that sell on clauses are added but never what %

"Orient will receive a fee for the signature of the teen and are understood to have a sell-on clause in the deal".

But, it doesn`t say how much.

Any money would be good in our current injury situation but this was a bit out of the blue. Could have extra funds from an unexpected source!

In 2008 we got about £ 500 000 when Nicky Shorey was sold to Aston Villa from Reading.

"-I have been promised some of that money to fetch in a left-back now", Lingy said, and signed Charlie Daniels a few months later :).

No excuse for them to not invest it in the squad.

Agreed , especially since we've used some , if not all of our January transfer money brining in players due to injuries

Its €8m - so its under £7m so we could still be in for a fair whack if true. Alzate had his chance under Potter but has stalled. Watched him a few times and seemed hesitant to play positive football - almost if he was scared to make a mistake.

This is beside the point, but If they got a loan fee that created a profit we'd still get a percentage of it.

That's what I was wondering just thinking back to when Southampton "sold" Rickie Lambert to Liverpool so they could avoid paying the sell-on fee for Lallana. Was wondering if clubs can do something similar with loans after seeing how Arsenal are "loaning" Raya to keep within FFP

Lingy has stated in a very early interview around the time when Bonne was sold to QPR that in all cases when selling players a 20% sell on fee is included .He actually mentioned Alzate in that interview

Strange no one seems to recall this interview apart from a few alias

Email Lingy for the definitive answer.
Otherwise it's like when your numbers you do very week in the lotto come up, but you can't find the ticket.

Great news for the club if this does happen and if this proposed transfer does happen, then hope that Steve Alzate's career flourishes at his new club.

Correct, so at today's currency rate....................1 euro equals 0.85 pound Sterling.
Showing results for 8 million euros to pounds
8,000,000 Euro equals
6,837,443.80 Pound sterling, so if its 20% of that going to the Os bank account, happy days indeed !
