Still want to sell/swap someone? A sprinter, even? Maybe to Bralirwa?

We're basically done with anything involving cash deals. However, depending on some FA stuff, we still have a decent amount of cap space, and with Janvier Hadi at 65k and Tesfom Okbamariam at 50k, we still have two useful low-cost riders that I'd be willing to include in a rider swap. So if you're up against the salary cap, feel free to pm me with a proposal.

A first update:
It looks increasingly likely that I want to sell at least Mektel Eyob and Yacob Debesay, and maybe Tesfatsion as well. Current asking prices are in the range of 250k for Eyob, 350k for Debesay and at least 800k for Tesfatsion.
Nils Politt has gathered significant interest, he'll go for a minimum of 500k. For Carlos Verona, I'm looking for around 350k.

Afternoon update: Not much has changed on the sales front, I'm still open to offers. Tesfatsion is very much on the table by now. I'll also likely be looking for loan-ins with 1>3 clauses where I'll be paying the wage (which should be below 70k). If you anticipate wanting to make such a deal, feel free to reach out

Day 2 update: Again, I'll be open to take in 1>3 loan-ins with wages between 50k and 80k where I pay the wage. I've regularly taken my own talents to the 3.50 to 3.70 range and I'd be happy to do that for yours, too.
In addition, I'm still looking for a deal for Mektel Eyob. 76/76 mountain/hill is nothing to sneeze at. Just get in touch and we'll see if we can figure something out. Nils Politt still has a lot of interest, still doesn't have a 100% confirmed deal in place.
I also want to test the waters on these guys:
| | FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CO | SP | AC | FT | DH | PR | Age | Wage |  | M. Teggart | 73 | 62 | 69 | 58 | 76 | 73 | 71 | 76 | 72 | 70 | 55 | 64 | 65 | 28 | 70.000 | | J. Hadi | 68 | 74 | 72 | 74 | 73 | 70 | 71 | 61 | 74 | 71 | 68 | 69 | 74 | 32 | 65.000 | | T. Okbamariam | 72 | 65 | 64 | 58 | 68 | 71 | 65 | 75 | 71 | 66 | 64 | 77 | 58 | 33 | 50.000 |
Teggart and Hadi have proven to be exceptionally useful riders at PCT level, and Teggart has scored very well in C2 cobble races. Okbamariam is a one-year rental on a very solid cobbles domestique. He's more likely to be added to any other deal as a sweetener, rather than outright sold, would be my guess right now.

First deals update: A deal including Debesay and Verona is up, so those are off the market.
IF that deal goes through, I will be looking to loan Girmay to PT to max him out. Ideally, I pay the majority of the wages (i.e. 200-190k) while receiving a fee. This would leave you with 175-185k in wages and an (almost) empty loan cap, but you'd receive a very solid rider at an overall pretty reasonable price, I'd say. Please reach out if this appeals to you.
Other than that, I'm still looking for 1>3 loan ins as well as rider sales to generate some cash. Reference the first post for details

With the big qualification of the main deal actually being sealed tonight, a loan for Girmay is tentatively in place with a very modest fee coming our way. Higher bids are of course still possible.
Politt is still in high demand but all offers so far depend on other things happening or not happening. I anticipate a thread for 500k going up soon-ish, though.
I'm also looking for one more 1>3 loan in where I pay the wage and you the fee. Apart from that, I still intend to move one of Hadi, Eyob and Okbamariam.
| | FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CO | SP | AC | FT | DH | PR | Age | Wage | | M. Eyob | 68 | 76 | 76 | 66 | 74 | 69 | 73 | 55 | 62 | 66 | 72 | 73 | 66 | 32 | 75.000 | | J. Hadi | 68 | 74 | 72 | 74 | 73 | 70 | 71 | 61 | 74 | 71 | 68 | 69 | 74 | 32 | 65.000 | | T. Okbamariam | 72 | 65 | 64 | 58 | 68 | 71 | 65 | 75 | 71 | 66 | 64 | 77 | 58 | 33 | 50.000 |
The latter will likely be available for the minimum, the other two would have to command a slightly bigger fee to make it worth my while. And it feels likely that once one of them is sold, the others are off the market, although Okbamariam could well find himself in a package deal with one of the other two as well if something like that interests you.

The Girmay loan thread is up, would need at least a 100k overbid, i.e. an overall 200k fee or more coming my way. This also likely means I don't need another loan in.
The Politt situation remains unchanged. However, as things stand, Eyob or Hadi could leave for as little as 170.000. Eyob would be the preferred rider to go, if I get offers for both. Tesform Okbamariam could be included (basically for free) to sweeten the deal for anyone interested, but I'd also be happy to have him stay.
| | FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CO | SP | AC | FT | DH | PR | Age | Wage | | M. Eyob | 68 | 76 | 76 | 66 | 74 | 69 | 73 | 55 | 62 | 66 | 72 | 73 | 66 | 32 | 75.000 | | J.

Nils Politt has a deal thread posted for 500k. I'm accepting 50k overbids for now. Still looking for takers on Eyob or Hadi, see post above.

Politt is sealed and a deal for Mektel Eyob has been found. At just 108.000, I believe that's an absolute bargain for someone who I've continuously labeled as 32 here, but who's actually 31 
If that changes your opinion, I'm open to overbids starting at 170k, since anything less doesn't really do much for me.
With that, we're basically done with anything involving cash deals. However, depending on some FA stuff, we still have a decent amount of cap space, and with Janvier Hadi at 65k and Tesfom Okbamariam at 50k, we still have two useful low-cost riders that I'd be willing to include in a rider swap.

There's been quite some interest in Hadi but nothing has come of it yet. Him and Okbamariam remain available as swap option for managers in need of cap relief, if an intriguing rider returns our way. See post above for details

Okbamariam has found a new home, Hadi is still available for a swap deal.
I'm also potentially looking to use some my remaining salary cap to either loan in or out a rider where I pay the wage and get a fee in return. For loaning in, any options including of course 1>3 loans are on the table. As for loaning out, here are the riders that could be available:
| | FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CO | SP | AC | FI | DH | PR | | Blouwe | Louis | 70 | 69 | 75 | 67 | 69 | 72 | 71 | 61 | 67 | 72 | 74 | 68 | 68 | | Kuypers | Gerben | 67 | 60 | 73 | 58 | 67 | 74 | 67 | 70 | 64 | 75 | 65 | 75 | 60 | | Mugisha | Samuel | 67 | 71 | 75 | 62 | 64 | 74 | 71 | 60 | 63 | 73 | 80 | 64 | 61 | | Mugisha | Moise | 76 | 64 | 70 | 74 | 70 | 74 | 71 | 63 | 62 | 68 | 74 | 64 | 68 |
Some very different rider types on offer here, all with intriguing skillsets. Blouwe and Moise Mugisha are very solid puncheurs, Mugisha is also a great attacking threat, having already won a KoM jersey at PT level. Kuypers is a versatile rider on both hills and cobbles, while Samuel Mugisha can be a good addition to any TTT setup and is a great domestique for flat races.
Blouwe is at 4.48, Kuypers at 3.72, both would need to level up. Blouwe is on 65k, which I could take in full, the others at 50k. I would also likely require more than minimum fee in return. Shoot me a PM or contact me on Skype if something interesting is in there for you.

I'm looking to potentially sell one of Simone Velasco and Matthew Teggart. Both are below 30 years old, really solid riders on their territory that can be great domestiques but also score on their own, Velasco in any division and Teggart especially in CT. Either can leave for just 100.000!
I'll likely also be looking to bring in a rider on a 25/25k loan split. Can include level up clauses. Let me know if you have a proposal.
| | FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CO | SP | AC | FT | DH | PR | Age | Wage |  | S. Velasco | 73 | 72 | 76 | 60 | 75 | 71 | 68 | 64 | 69 | 76 | 75 | 69 | 62 | 29 | 100.000 | | M. Teggart | 73 | 62 | 69 | 58 | 76 | 73 | 71 | 76 | 72 | 70 | 55 | 64 | 65 | 28 | 70.000 |

Situations change quickly, and this is our new one: Teggart is off the market, while both Simone Velasco and Janvier Hadi are available, most likely for swaps. We can take in a rider who has a wage that is 90k higher than whoever is swapped, and could even pay a modest fee on top. They're also potentially available for sale, but that depends on if I find an interesting offer to use that money on.
Speaking of: If you want to sell a rider for low-ish six figures, I'm looking for any kind of sprinter, a decent climber or any solid rider under 30, basically.
