Where Are They Now

[RUL]

Looks like we won’t get anything further for him. Surprised it indicates we’ve received £6m

Aye but it’s saying he’s out of contract ?

Out of contract in the summer so I doubt any team will pay a fee in January that’s more than what Forest paid Aberdeen to sign him

He's an international defender playing in the EPL, they pay silly money even with 6 months left down there, 6 million is buttons.

yes, in the summer, no doubt he'll move in January, he'll want to keep playing to keep in for the Euros.

Teams feart of relegation in January will spend crazy money

Not shocked he's fallen out of favour as Forrest have spent daft money recently

Hopefully some team flirting with relegation chuck in a bid for him

Norwich will need to do something real quick

Tims maybe resurrect their interest in him ?

Probably not if they’re having to pay EPL rates for him , as opposed to the relative buttons they offer to Scottish clubs

Can see Celtic going in for him on a pre-contract, Rodgers always liked him and he's from a TIm family

Good point…..I was forgetting about the pre-contract option

[Ten Caat]

Aye I think Celtic will be his next career move. As the article says, he's no longer a starter at Forest and even seems to be behind Worrall for a place on the bench when all their CH options are fit.

Scales has done well to hold on to a starting place at Celtic but McKenna on a free next summer would usurp him as left sided CH immediately (assuming Scales was still in the side)........Celtic would then surely try to cash in on Scales with a year left on his contract. The fee they get for him would probably be close to paying for McKenna's contract so they'd win all round

Surely he needs the move in January to keep his Scotland place 

[Andy_123]

He's proven he can cut it in the bottom half of the premiership down there, so I'm sure there will be plenty interest in him. Hopefully enough that results in a January bid for him

[jamiesd]

Celtic for Mckenna, nailed on.

Possibly aye but outwith injuries he's not really a starter anymore, think if he's not getting the game-time he wants he'll seek a move

Sure the Saudi's can use a CB! 💸

Will they pay his Premier League wages? If he can stay in that league he won't come back to Scotland.

Championship club either near relegation or a team looking to bulk squad for a play off place possibly.

We won't be seeing any of the money so why do you care?

Would we not get whatever % on profit if any is made by Forest?

You never know with the silly money that’s thrown around down there

Not if he signs a pre contract agreement and f*cks off on a free. 20% of zero equals what?

As Dazzy said, if he signs a pre-contract, we'd get precisely £0.

But even if Forest do sell him in January, with less than 6 months to run on his contract its a dead cert nobody is going to pay anywhere close to the £3m we sold him for. They'd be doing well to even get £750k for him by that point. So we still get fuck all.

Can't see him going for more than £6m when he's available to sign a pre-contract.

Was clearly talking about a transfer bid, not a pre-contract.

Like I say, it’s England. Could easily see a £3m + bid going in for him, that’s nothing down there for a player who’s proven at that level when you’re chasing £150m a year from Sky’s tv deal.

If it’s over the value including all his add on’s (£6m someone said) before we stand to make any money then I think we’ll be struggling.

£6m all in was a good deal for the club though

Don't think it was a case of him being greedy, more a case of us being unable to pay the fee and the wages required for a fee of that magnitude.
