Nixon reporting we will take up the option to make Beyer permanent in the summer.

Brilliant news if true.

Careful we’re not getting Wood back

Hope this is true.
He needs a long contract too.
Going places is this lad.

2nd placed Blackburn !!

Great news
I did tell you a couple of months ago though and also that it was from the strongest source in the club you could possibly get it from !!

Best defender at the club. Rolls Royce at this level.

Get in

Hope Nixon is bang on about this one

Hope it's more accurate than who the article has in 2nd place

Yes I remember you sharing that and others were then accusing you of thinking you knew more than their owner

I really hope you turn out to be correct. Sounds like it will happen.

I knew the fee was agreed when we signed him on loan.
But I do not know the amount.
My guess would be it’s not much more than £5m though - but only on the basis of what we have been paying for players under VK

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 7:53 pm

He'll be worth £50m in two-years time.

If it does not happen I was and still am telling the truth.
If he does not sign it will be because the player or Burnley FC have made that decision.

Swizzlestick · Post by **Swizzlestick** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 7:56 pm

If we get him for £5m we’ve pulled off the crime of the century.

boatshed bill · Post by **boatshed bill** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 7:58 pm

Brilliant if we can sign him.

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 8:02 pm

Perspective: Leon Cort at about age 30 cost us £1.5m THIRTEEN YEARS AGO!!! In today's money that's like handing over £10m for a washed up donkey people only remember for being rubbish. Beyer has full Germany international mainstay potential.

Tw@ · Post by **Tw@** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 8:04 pm

He’s a quality player and when he goes on a run passing multiple opponents it’s great to watch.

I don’t suppose we should be too surprised that our manager can pick out good young centre backs.

Claret1900 · Post by **Claret1900** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 9:00 pm

Ekdal was a great signing and Charly was superb today.
But Beyer is absolute class and one of its kind. If this news is true I will celebrate for a week or longer. Beyer would write history with us. Ekdal alongside him would profit from Beyer‘s leadership, too.

Tw@ · Post by **Tw@** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 9:06 pm

Ekdal looks another class addition also

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 9:36 pm

Be great to sign this lad permanently he's been class all season long.

It would explain why the munchengladbach officials was over here midweek

louieollie · Post by **louieollie** » Sat Feb 18, 2023 10:14 pm

Over the moon about this should it be true

..........only downside is it's coming from Nixon who I don't think has a clue and generally just posts the bloody obvious . He does however have a great PR person on this board

summitclaret · Post by **summitclaret** » Sun Feb 19, 2023 12:05 am

This is great news. I have already got him in Cork's current role with THB and Ekdal at cb.

Maybe we can get Tarkowski back to play along side him.

ArmchairDetective · Post by **ArmchairDetective** » Sun Feb 19, 2023 7:30 am

From what I recall Nixon has at times seemed to have info before anyone else in the media regarding our transfers. I think he was talking about our interest in Cornet a couple of months before he signed.

He also tries to make an extra few quid rehashing existing or obvious stories.

The Beyer story sounds like it falls somewhere in the middle of the two. Let's just hope it's true.

Actually it's £2,495,782 in today's money.

Some one posted something this week that borussia put on their socials (maybe Instagram) that they’d had a meeting with beyer after the game Tuesday and said ‘more to follow’

The inclusion of Blackburn in 2nd 11 points behind casts serious doubt on anything about that article. It’s almost as if someone hijacked Nixon’s handle

That would be a fantastic price but I am not hugely surprised as the most we spent on any of our summer signings was £4m on Twine.
We did some unbelievable business in the summer and this looks like another great coup

Not really. Yep that’s a silly mistake but rest of it is sounding pretty accurate to me.

NewClaret · Post by **NewClaret** » Sun Feb 19, 2023 1:31 pm

Would not shock me at all if there were similar clauses in Tella and Maatsen’s contracts. Their “spices” celebration is either a massive tease or a sign that they expect to sign permanently.

Any I imagine in summer that Southampton/Chelsea might’ve been open to decent sums for fringe players.

agreenwood · Post by **agreenwood** » Sun Feb 19, 2023 1:33 pm

Truly amazing if we get Beyer for £3m.

Jakubs Tash · Post by **Jakubs Tash** » Sun Feb 19, 2023 1:33 pm

Haven't The Athletic been saying this all along since the day Beyer signed? Why does it now hold any more weight because Nixon is saying it (months later)?

As an aside, didn't The Athletic also state we have something similar set up for Maatsen?

They said there was believed to be a buy option, never that we are activating it (which is kinda the new bit here plus the fee).

Re. Maatsen, no, just that we are likely to pursue a permanent deal for him.
