Beardy23 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Dundee United have rejected a £40,000 bid from Moldovan outfit Sheriff Tiraspol for striker Simon Murray. United are seeking a fee in the region of £250,000 for the 24-year-old forward.

Clearly any Club wishing to sign him on a pro contract will have to pay his former Club Dieppe a compensation fee which I understand is 40k.

1320Lichtie Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Deeboy will be sitting somewhere absolutely devastated that Murray looks like he's going to have a long career as a full time football player. Back to the plumbing he said. Pleasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's quick so I'd sign him tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not played a great deal as we have at least one better option in his preferred (and best) position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnitedLoon63 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Can't see Murray accepting the ICT pre-contract as we could both be in the championship next season and think he'd rather stay with us. But if other clubs for premiership came in for him, and we didn't go up wouldn't have anything against him wanting to play in higher league. Can't see him moving away to that club abroad, to much of a risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Be pretty appealing if he got 10 times the wage tbf. Although not sure that will be accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetterlund Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Apparently after contemplating life in a crumbling, far-flung backwater, speaking a strange language and dealing with a completely alien culture, Murray has decided he's had enough of that and will be moving to Moldova.

UnitedLoon63 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 We should be offering him a new contract to stop speculation, I would give him two year deal. Technically not the best but gives 100% and good sub to come on. Plus not bad goal scoring record this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Still a week or so to go but it looks like a pretty underwhelming transfer window. I'm still not overly concerned, I think we have enough to navigate the rest of the league season but it is the playoff games that will be the ultimate test and we are still short of at least two players. I don't think Murray will end up in Inverness, it would be strange move for him. If he wants to give overseas a go then fair play to him. We should be offering him an extension regardless.

By definition is he is amateur, which presumably he is, there is no contract. An amateur registration runs to 30th June. It cannot be limited to anything shorter. There may of course be a gentlemans agreement to cancel it on 23rd Jan and not to go to League 2 club. I doubt it can actually be enforced though.
