No worries, this is why players only hand is transfer requests as a last resort, imagine a Prem player on £3 mill a year with 2 years left on his deal. He hands in a request when another club comes in it would lose him £6 million to force the move.
This would help reduce the transfer fee and...
It means when we sell him we do not have to pay up the remainder of his contract, this will also affect the fee as this amount could be the difference of the deal going through or not.
