thewelllfan Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago Was the talk at the AGM not that Jens was on a rolling 1 year deal. On Olly Whyte you'd expect he'd be offered a new deal with a view of getting him involved next season. I think also as we have a co-op agreement with Stenhousemuir should the last few games end up with little meaning he'll probably play some minutes. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth, in his interview in The Herald recently, Whyte said he wanted to continue develop his career with us. (Of course, he would say that).

It was described as an "Open Contract" the terms of which are not known, but some with knowledge of these things described as a normal employment contract with a notice period on either side. Basically we wont be getting big compo for him. If a club comes in that he fancies he will be allowed to talk to them...... Im pretty fine with that. We had no way of knowing at the start whether he was gonna be a success or not and he has made us plenty money already on increased gate money and prize money. Not to mention the other sellable assets we now have in the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Means compo increases & you never know may help increase his loyalty. Of course, that may have already happened & we just dont know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust the board will be doing everything they can to keep him. If ever there was a Motherwell manager that could ask for whatever they want, Jens is probably about as close as it gets. If we sell Maswanhise we dont really need to sell anyone else in the close season. (Caveat being we would need to source a replacement to support Eythor). If we could guarantee the rest of his team was kept together for a proper tilt at Europe, then maybe, just maybe...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago Sell JT ASAP in the summer, because I still think he might be a 9 or 10 goals a season striker elsewhere next season, including Fir Park 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if we could persuade someone to buy the joint 11th goal scorer in SPFL (a goal every 1.6 games) for a couple of million that would be a deal worth making 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewelllfan Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago If we can get 4-5M for Maswanhise in the summer and that lets us keep hold of the rest of the team I'd be buzzing. The problem also is though that we market ourselves to players by telling them we'll put them in the shop window so if we start turning down bids for the likes of Just, Watt etc then we'll be left with unhappy players and most likely a new manager having to pick up the peices. Hopefully Sydney or someone else make an offer for Stama and we can shift him off the wage bill as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that ending up as a “by mutual consent” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosemite sam Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago (edited) Why should we be talking about selling Maswanhise for 4-5m, when Hibs sold Bowie for 6 million +, and he had nowhere near the number of goals. We should surely be looking at least the same if not more. Edited 1 hour ago by yosemite sam spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maswhanise is no different, hes a young developing player, already played at international level, so if an acceptable offer comes in ie over £6 million we will sell him, the same as we did with miller, with a good sell on clause.
