Pickford began last season in Sunderland reserves and ended it relegated with the first team.
Significantly, before Tuesday, it valued Pickford at 5 million pounds, way below what Everton appear ready to pay.
"So paying 30 million pounds is indicative of Everton paying ridic (sic) prices," tweeted Nick Harris, an authority on spending by English clubs who this summer are expected to smash their own transfer window record of 1.165 billion pounds.
"When the buyer is English, it multiplies the transfer sometimes by 10. If an English club does not come in, he is worth 5 million pounds but, if an English club comes, he is worth 35 million pounds or 40 or 50."
Jordan Pickford will become the most expensive British goalkeeper of all time if he completes his move from Sunderland to Everton,he would become the third most expensive goalkeeper in history behind Gianluigi Buffon and Ederson.
Buffon's move from Parma to Juventus in 2001 was reported to be worth 53m euros, or £32.6m at the time, while at current exchange rates, Ederson's 40m euros transfer to Manchester City last week is equivalent to £35m, which is a world record in sterling, but not euros.
Pickford 成為最貴的英藉龍門,上季還在預備組打拼,今季就成為最貴的英籍龍門,一個身價只有5m,但卻需要30m 轉會費的龍門,並成為歷史上第三高轉會費的龍門,朗奴高文,你叻~ |
