I've not heard of any 'Option to buy' in respect of Rakip but that is not to say there isn't one.I don't get regular alerts on my phone with every detail of every move!!!! Looking at the 'Window' as a whole what is clear is that we spent less money than we were prepared to spend.

I read somewhere that Rakip had 10 million £ buy-out clause in his new contract with Benfica. Which I guess could be acted upon in the summer if required.

not a bad window to be fair, defender/midfielder/striker for less than we paid for schlupp this time last year, 2 perm signings young with potential sell on value. all good really. one thing is for sure, that woy will have very good links to the scandinavian market (not iceland) and he will have done his homework.

This time last year PVA, Schlupp, Luka and the Beast on loan. If any of the 3 in this time can reach the heights of Luka or the Beast then they will of done really well.

For all our sakes let's hope they prove shrewd acquisitions.Let's NOT dismiss them without seeing them perform.I understand both Rakip and Sorloth haven't played for a while so they might not 'Hit the ground running' and will need time to settle in accordingly we might need to be patient with them.

There you go, maybe you can tweak that one into a first-hand account somewhere along the line. You're welcome

Seems a long time since Palace were breaking new ground in signing Borge Thorup. Per Batram as well - Think Thorup only played once? Batram played a lot more - wasn’t that good though :-(

Yes, I also read in an article that we had a 10m buy option, might be rubbish of course

Of course it's possible, but I cannot see any reason there would be an option to buy on Rakip. Benfica buy and develop young players. They have a surplus of midfielders right now so this is a stopgap solution. I think they are planning to sell at least one of Pizzi or Lubo Fejsa come the summer window and are restocking the midfield cuboard now. Always planning a window or two ahead...imagine that.

Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |

They are also a business. It wouldn't be the most ludicrous idea that a club would be happy to insert a clause like that, or have a release clause knowing that they stand to make £10m for doing pretty much nothing. I pray along with you that this young fellow turns into a 10 mill player in 13 games. Edited by WillOC83 (02 Feb 2018 1.43pm)
