MUSTAFA AMINI TO BARCLAYS PREMIER LEAGUE
Mustafa Amini is believed to be in a line for a dream move to "a high-profile Barclays Premier League club", just days after Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund were reported to have been "priced out" of signing the Central Coast Mariners teenager.

Amini's management said the young gun's dreams had been compromised when they claimed the Mariners were seeking a fee close to $1 million for the young attacking midfielder, who burst on to the A-League scene only last season.

Dortmund had initially offered to pay $135,000.

Borussia are still believed to be interested in the youngster, who might then be loaned back to the A-League club, but one of the EPL giants is thought to be waiting in the wings should the deal fall through.

Going to an EPL club over Dortmund as a junior player would possibly be the dumbest thing he could do.

Doesn't mean personal terms were agreed.

I think the Mariner's have fucked this up badly, there is no way he is worth anywhere near their valuation- €135k is much closer. I think they saw how Melbourne stood up to them last year over a Langerak and thought they'd be able to pull off the same and hold out for money. Problem being, Langerak was far better and had more worth in his contract to be compensated on

Meanwhile, Australian Super Coach Judy Free was quoted as saying "strayan sockah sux and this could not possible be happening becuz now sux big time, back then when i wuz intrikutly invulvs was the only time talented players existed"

Crystal Pala...oh, wait.

When I saw the title of this thread was all in caps, I thought it was going to be some annoying twat from AF - I was mildly surprised to say the least when I saw Stiflers at the top of the page. :lol:

Newcastle United....

he'd develop much better in the BVB! i dont care about CCM money if it means it will probably destroy his career

unless it is Manchester United or Arsenal he will pretty much go no where...

They said high profile...

Wait, I thought he was supposed to be the bitter? :lol:

Amini has already agreed personal terms. The issue is the club's valuation. They're looking for near AU$350k but he's probably worth closer to AU$250k. If they're getting him back for a year on loan and not having to increase his wage payments, they shouldn't be greedy. They're not going to get a Victory-esque deal for him.

My big concern is that the media circus in BD might go to Amini's head. He'd want to focus hard and ignore all the talk and comparisons in the paper to that kids TV character or his football could suffer.
