But we will have a great player under a 3 year contract. We know the talent is there.
Again, he is our asset. You don't sell your assets unless you need to/you simply cant resist the offer.
The whole POINT of a transfer is that the buying team offer an amount which you simply cannot resist for that asset.
£20m, when we are a prem team, is not irresistible for our best player when teams can demand £15m for a player in the Championship.
