    He would need to sign a new contract if he wants to stay won't happen.

    I remember The Cynic analysis guys did a thing on the top young strikers in Europe a few years back and Daka's name popped up with Werner, Haaland and Edouard in terms of stats. That's how well Edouard was performing a year or so ago.

    The club can’t sell him unless he agrees to go. If he decides to sit tight and sign somewhere on a free next summer (and pocket a hefty signing bonus in doing so) then there’s absolutely hee-haw the club can do.

    Personally I hope he goes, but the final decision will be his own.

    People saying they are desperate to get the money for Eddie that would be fine if it was spent on the team which it won't. I would rather he stayed, played to the best of his ability, won us the league back then * off for nothing next summer

    Chances are he will put in even more half arsed performances and sign a pre contract

    We know that hardly any of the money will be reinvested in the team given the tight arses running our club... All the Van Dijk, Wanyama, Forster, Dembele, Tierney, Frimpong money and we still went into every CL qualifying campaign woefully unprepared. Even add guys like Hooper and Armstrong getting us pretty decent figures too.

    Borderline criminal that we shop in the same market as the Huns despite getting £10+m for 6 players over the last 6 years + had a few stints at the CL money too. They haven’t sold a single player for money since Jelavic at the Oldco.

    Edouard was shocking last season but even then he still managed to be top scorer. We won’t replace him with anyone near his quality I’m afraid.

    If he doesn’t go this summer he needs to sign a contract extension otherwise he doesn’t play. Let him rot in the stands if he isn’t going to play ball.

    I read it's Edouard wanting too much money.

    If he's planning on running his contract out he'll need a good season to get the move and money he wants.

    Yeah Leipzig striker wants less money, so obviously Edouard figures of he goes for free he will likely be able to get a big sign on bonus.

    Reports suggesting Edouard is 'happy to see out the last year of his contract and become a free agent'. Oh really....you can * forget that idea Edwardo. No * chance we have the sulky faced moping * hanging around Celtic for another year as we watch £15 million slowly drain down the gurgler. He either signs another contract now or we get him to * asap.

    Scunnered Leicester have reportedly called time on their pursuit of Odsonne Edoaurd.

    The Express state they will push on with a deal for RB Salzburg forward Patson Daka rather than pay £20m for Edourd with one year remaining on his deal.

    The 23-year-old has been on the radar of a host of big clubs over the years but could stay at Parkhead and earn himself a.bumper pay packet as a free agent next summer.

    But plenty of time remains in the window with other suitors expected to emerge for a player who is available for a reduced fee when the world is looking to adjust amid the pandemic.

    Personally I have never been anywhere near as big on Edouard as I was with Dembele. Just never took to him the same way at all. But at this point regardless he only has 1 year left on his contract and his value has already come down a fair bit so he either needs to sign a new deal now or he needs to be sold now so we can increase the kitty for the rebuild.

    Love them both but Dembele is a different animal altogether, reminds me of Drogba and hope to see him in the hoops again one day.
