QPR sign Samba for 12 MILLION

[swindonseagull]

With FFP just round the corner how can QPR spend 12 Million on a player?

A club just waiting for Admin....

At 5p in the pound, that's only £600,000. Sounds like a great deal to me.

Erm... they signed him for £12m in January and are now selling back to Anzhi for the same price...

 

[joeinbrighton]

They just sold him back to Anzhi for £12 million, so 6 months after signing him, they've achieved parity on his transfer fee.

I think you'd struggle to find a single QPR fan who thought he was worth every penny

 

[swindonseagull]

Good spot.......I missread it......

Great thread

How have they managed to sell him back for the exact same price a yaer older. Odd.

Because he is obviously a more mature player and will have benefitted greatly from working under 'Arry's tutelage.

Excuse me while I extract my tongue from my cheek.

I bet they are pleased to get rid of him. If he had seen out his contract with them, he would have cost the club at least £38m.

At a guess, I'd imagine there would have been a buy back clause written into his contract in the event of relegation. With QPR relegated, Anzhi decided to exercise it as QPR needed to sell.

SOmething smells fishy about that. I wonder if Harry is making anything from it?

 

[Nathan]

I wanted him to stay with QPR, he was shit and didn't look interested.

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

The thing that surprises me is not the fee or his departure but that he has gone back to Anzhi.

I am sure when he signed that he spoke of how happy he was to have left due to the racism there. I very much doubt there has been a radical change in attitudes so his wages must be rather hefty to convince him to go back

He wouldn't do that. I'm sure everything in the garden is rosie.

Anzhi Makhachkala buying Samba for £12m is possibly the worst bit of transfer business since QPR bought Samba for £12m.

Arry made him better.

 

[Simster]

Terrible news for other Championship clubs really. Typical spawny Arry though. How many other managers get this lucky after a crap purchase like that?

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

QPR had to pay his wages whilst he was there , on the other hand we've got rid of Dobbie without losing a penny.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Is Harry still on a cut of the transfers? Wasn't he making money on every sale and/or purchase Portsmouth made?
