Oh, well. I'm sure we'll all be completely reasonable about this (assuming it isn't just a sporting-esque ploy to squeeze a little more out of us).

With time still left in the window with us and Marinakis a deal is never truly dead unless we want it to be.

Having never heard of him, I wonder how accurate this Abraham Romero-bloke is?

The manager has kicked off, unfortunately for him though it doesn't solve Celtas financial woes if they keep the player then they have to raise money elsewhere. They have instead apparently offered a new contract which no doubt will have a slightly adjusted release clause but make their la liga budget situation even worse. They need the money, the player has agreed so this as well so I think it still has a chance, they have 2 signings lined up that don't happen without this sale.

Yeah, very disappointing given it's a key position in Glasner's setup

We’re cursed on RWB maybe we should broaden the pool and look at LWBs as well…

Letting Moreira go today as well seemed a bit premature didn't it. They thought this deal was as good as done

It's around 22m euros higher than the bid they initially accepted.

Unless I'm missing something that's pretty obvious, other than triggering his apparent release clause, what can be done if the selling club suddenly changes its mind after a deal has been agreed?

Seems like a ridiculously high offer anyway, just put Neco there for nothing.
It's really quite simple to understand. Forest have screwed this up big time.
They should have signed him before the selling club even realised we were interested.
In fact, if Forest were anything like competent they would have bought him for £30m before even he realised we were interested in him.
It's not that hard to do.

What Marinakis should've done is gone to "add manager", taken over Celta Vigo, then fined Rueda 2 weeks' wages for no reason, stuck him in the reserves and transfer listed him. Then he should have switched back to Forest, put in a bid for £0m, before finally switching back to Celta and accepting it.
Why he hasn't is beyond me.

I'll ask him. He runs a bar down the road from me. Surprisingly called Eaden's bar 2
He's got another one in town called Eaden's bar, I'm not sure how he comes up with the names.

Didn't Celta Vigo do something similar when we tried to sign Alex Moreno from them our first summer back in the PL?

About £25m was the asking price

Fair enough, I thought it was £20m.

Just looked it up, €25-30m was touted so there or thereabouts. Roma seemed to jib out late in the day.
