With emre possibly leaving as early as January is there any chance of us giving redbull abut extra and they might let naby come here earlier? Depending on how they are doing in the league, champions league etc?

I remember when there was talk of the same happening with Origi a few January's back. can't see what situation they would be happy to let him leave early?

Keita in January is not going to happen. The deal is for the transfer window of 2018. It was confirmed by the club and nothing about that is going to change.

Here's a possible scenario. Can will sign a new contract with an understanding that he'll be allowed to move on if a suitable bid comes in for him, next summer. What's in it for the club? After what we all saw this summer, Can is definitely worth more than the 25million on offer. More like 40-50million. So the club makes a bigger profit. What's in it for Can? He gets a good pay rise on his new lfc contract, from which to ask a new pay rise from summer bidders. And his percentage of the new summer transfer fee would be the same amount as a signing on fee anyway (if he did not sign a renewal with lfc) . And the best reason for both parties to do this is a mutual "golden handshake" for services rendered.

Am I reaching? Could be. I can't understand otherwise how the bean counters at LFC would allow the contract to run down with zero residual value. Refusing 25million now and accepting 0$ in the summer is like spending 25million on him for his final year - the same as Neymar's salary at PSG, 500,000.00 per week. Doesn't make much sense.

Read an article earlier that said depending no on how RBL are doing in the champions league, cups and domestic league it may happen in January.

Might not make much sense Ra but Emre won't be giving up what will be a massive signing on bonus to take a couple of grand more wages.
In addition, having to pay a whopping transfer fee may put off such clubs, and he might find himself without Juve + other top clubs interest.
If anything, the best situation for him personally is to asses his options come January/ June and sign on again with us if his other options are not still interested. Thereby getting increases wages and a signing on fee with us.
