5 goals now? If he scores 20 plus we should get major $$$ for him. Or did we construct a crap contract that means he can leave for 50p? |  |

I'm sure he's got an 8 million release clause.
Which is a good 10 million less than what he's worth in the current market imo |  |

Sounds like a classic fckup in the making | |

Hardly a fck up at all. Don't be so knee-jerk negative. We already got a couple of million for him as part of the loan deal. If we get another 8 million + for him, that is bloody good business. When was the last time we sold a player for a profit? And, even with an 8 million clause, it doesn't mean he goes for 8 million. If he scores 20 goals and doesn't go to prison there will likely be a bidding war and he would likely go for much more than the bare minimum.
Of course, all of that is predicated on him not going to prison, something that nobody can predict at this point. |  |

If he's got a release clause there'll be no bidding war, we'll only get £8m |  |

Good post.....apart from the bidding war bit. I don't know where this has come from with many supporters thinking you can still get a bidding war going when there is a clause in place....anyway wasn't there talk that the clause expired ? |  | | |
| Remy on 18:52 - Oct 5 with 2245 views | 1MoreBrightonR |
Saying his release clause is bad business is ridiculous....he wouldn't have signed for us unless he knew he could leave on the cheap if we got relegated |  | | |
| Remy on 18:56 - Oct 5 with 2232 views | WestActon |
He don't have a release clause it expired in the summer is my understanding so if he is sold its at our asking price | | | |

They will be desperate to do the deal in January then surely, cos if we get promoted we could keep him.
When is he bailed to return? |  | | |
| Remy on 21:10 - Oct 5 with 2009 views | Lewes_r |
If he keeps going at this rate bigger clubs will be in for him next summer and that could mean a big payday then [Post edited 5 Oct 2013 21:11]

So if Newcastle offer £8m and Man Utd/Arsenal/Chelsea/Liverpool offer £10m, we'll only get £8m?
My understanding is that £8m is the trigger amount, don't recall anything saying it couldn't have gone higher if a number of clubs start bidding. |  | | |

yea but if it is £8 million then all a club has to do is put up that sum and THEN AGREE terms with remy
if newcastle offered £12 mill and arsenal only £8 mill remy would still go arsenal wouldnt he |  |

| Remy on 21:25 - Oct 5 with 1966 views | Juzzie |
errrr, no? Why would we turn down an offer of £12m? | | | |
| Remy on 22:01 - Oct 5 with 1903 views | BathRanger |
This is my understanding of how a release clause works.
If a buying club offer the release clause amount, the selling club can not stop the transfer and have to allow the player to talk to the buying club about agreeing personal terms. So, if two or more clubs both want the same player, there is no advantage whatsoever in offering more than the release clause amount because they must be allowed to discuss personal terms with the player regardless. The player will then presumably go to the club that offers the best personal deal.
So, in this scenario of Remy having a release clause of £8m, no club would offer £9m or £10m or more since it wouldn't be QPR's choice which club Remy would be sold to, it would be the player's choice based on personal terms offered. [Post edited 5 Oct 2013 22:02]

We wouldn't get offered more than the clause...The player will get better offers not us | | | |

That clause only mattered on us being relegated. The clause would've obviously been triggered on relegation if it wasn't for the rape charge hanging over him.
That clause is spent now. If we go up, Remy is ours unless we sell him for mega money. That 8m is bollocks. |  | | |

Yeah I have already questioned whether the clause is still active..in my first post above.
What i'm answering is that if there is a clause on a player we will only receive or pay what is required  | | | |
| Remy on 08:53 - Oct 6 with 1661 views | SpiritofGregory |
Doesn't the clause last for a year from the date we signed him? If so it would expire at the end of January.
If the clause is lifted and he is found innocent he is worth at least £30m. Naturally gifted strikers scoring for fun are like gold dust. We would have the likes of Man City, Chelsea PSG etc wanting to sign him, clubs who can afford large transfer fees.
Newcastle can forget about signing him, with or without a clause. |  | | |

I think we are in a win/win situation.
If he scores lots of goals then his price will go up and if he doesn't come back then we get a lot of money.
If he doesn't score many goals then we get him back as a good seasoned Prem striker.
Alan Pardew placed a little comment in his after match interview saying 'strikers score when they are happy at a club'. Don't worry about Newcastle and those 52K fans as he is first a QPR player and is contracted to us and on loan at Newcastle.
We decide what will happen to him not Newcastle. | | | |

Yes i picked up on that comment.
Pardew would be desperate to sign him but he will be sacked in a month anyway. I doubt Newcastle would be able to match a fee from a chelsea etc. i just hope its us and not the player who has a say in where and how much he goes for [Post edited 6 Oct 2013 9:14]

Agree Pardew is a 'dead man walking' and he is to daft to see it.
Really not worried how many goals he scores for them because, he is our player and we will decide. | | | |

It just goes to show what a diamond deal was done to sign the guy in the first place for £8m if he's now 'worth' say, £30m. I don't believe anybody on here knows how his contract reads and there are probably only a dozen or so people in the world do. Release clauses are not pulled off the shelf like a domestic gas contract. It will have been hammered out, word by word and finessed to the nth degree. Who are the clubs contract lawyers anyway? Are they any good or dodgy and found on a backstreet in Hackney? |  |

He's not worth £3 at the moment with the Rape accusation hanging over him. Uncle Tony signed him with a release agreement for the amount we paid so the price is the price |  | | |
