In fairness it only states he has a release clause, not that it’s all they would accept. Perhaps there’s a deal to be done for cheaper/include a player etc.
I mean in general across this window with all Premier League clubs. Bournemouth signing a midfielder from Italy who I’ve never heard of. Reading the Italians comments saying he’s bang average. £15m.
It seems everyone costs 15m or more this window no matter who they are or what club their from. Even the South American clubs seem to have increased their asking prices
