Nijmegen v Groningen tonight.

No chance, they're transfer record is 6.5m and that was 14/15.
Plus I doubt the player thinks moving to Turkey is the right direction for his career.
 
I can definitely see him joining them. Turkish sides dont have to pay the premium that English clubs pay for one. All the social media talk is that they're bidding around 5-6m and they've got a few quid to spend after selling a defender to Ajax, plus they can offer European football. A year in Turkey and who knows, if they're drawn against Arsenal or Man U and he does well, who knows.

que? it's not about the premium - Groningen want 12m, they won't drop the price and accept 50% less just because it's a Turkish side.

Groningen's asking price would be the 6th biggest signing in Turkish History.
Trabzonspor's current record transfer (in 2014/2015) si 6.9m and is 36th biggest of all time

All in all - ZERO chance

Why would Groningen accept less than what we offered 😆 don’t be silly 😵‍💫
 
Disappointing if he doesn't come, mainly because it just occurred to me while reading this thread we could sing a song to the tune of "Let's all go down the strand". (Some of you may need to ask your parents. Err...Grandparents)
If you shorten the song a bit we could do this: (original lyrics below in brackets so you have a vague idea what I mean)

We've go-t....Jorgen Strand, ........................... (Let's all go down the strand)
Jorgen Strand Larsen... ............................... (Have a banana)
Norway, to Eng-er-land... ........................... (oh what a happy land)
Came to Boro just to lead the line, ........................... (I'll be leader, you can walk behind)
He'll score goals and we will do just fine, ........................... (Come with me lets see what we can find)
Best stri-ker- in the land ........................... (let's all, go down the strand) (Repeat)


No? Suit yourselves, I'll get me coat.
