    This is a good point, you forget what age he is.

    It makes me slightly more inclined to be ok with selling him if the price is right. It really has to be near the £20m mark.

    One more year out of him would be the ideal situation.

    If you look at it another way, he stays till he is 31/32.

    Helps us win the league each season and we get into the groups of the champions league each time and contributes massively the whole time he is here.

    He is a class player who clearly thought of within the dressing room and is in his peak years.

    might cost us 20 million to replace him buying time and time again.

    Look at the issue we have had trying to get a decent left back since KT left.

    I would honestly rather keep him like we did Lustig.

    I'm of this view as well. He's worth more to us (from a fans perspective anyway) given how hard it is to find consistent quality full backs.

    But he won't stay like Lustig. Wouldn't blame him after another good season, hopefully including good world Cup and CL campaigns, if he goes.

    Well aye, ideally we’d still have Dembele up top, KT at LB, Van Dijk still here… but realistically these players move on and Juranovic isn’t any different.

    Worst case scenario he leaves this summer. Best case we get a year to prepare, have him for the CL and turn a big profit. It’s unrealistic to say he will stay for his full contract.

    If there is interest it won't just be how content he is here but what that interest looks like and the money attached to it.

    Not sure he is physical enough to attract a top 6 EPL side but can see some of the better continental clubs possibly showing an interest.

    I can definitely see him staying here another year at least, but if he stays in form think that'll be it.

    Regarding the players you mentioned they where not at peak age, Juranovic is so for me there is a massive difference.

    I agree players do move on but there is nothing to stop us giving him a very good deal and clearly offer European football every season and trophies.

    I think CL football this year will keep him here, but he’s a good World Cup away from offers from CL teams which then takes away all the power we have.

    Players have ambitions and as much as our fans hate to hear it, those ambitions don’t end with playing for us. I believe he will want to test himself domestically at the top level which is accelerated by his age, rather than his age meaning he will be willing to settle.

    Thing is, you never know if he wants to go after being here. He may want to settle but as for people already saying he will leave etc, we just don’t know.

    Most of the players who have left for pastures new have been younger players who clearly wanted to leave for more money and a shot at a bigger league.

    He may love it here and get an improved deal to stay, even if he has a good World Cup.

    It’s all if and buts at the moment but there is absolutely nothing to suggest he wants to leave apart from one person reporting it on Twitter.

    Would prefer to keep him at all costs. We’ve never been able to build real momentum in recent times through selling our best assets.

    This is the one summer where I expect us to keep our best players. I believe there is interest in him but I don’t think interest will result in anything if we stand firm and say we are not selling for anything less than £20m.

    Allowing hate speech, two Juranovic threads, a thread about potential link ups in the wrong forum.

    They’ve packed it in.

    Why go to another team and risk not fiiting in or worse being dropped when the World cup is months away.
    He is first choice with Ange and being picked and playing for his national side whilst at Celtic.
    From his prospective,probably best stay here,go to the World Cup(play well) and then see what offers come about.
    Athletico,just chancing their luck at the present time,before his value goes up if he has a good tournament.
