I’d be gutted. Really rate him as a player and he’s generally been excellent for us. Put better players around him and I think he’d be even better.
£21 million is too cheap for him in this market IMO too.

The price actually quoted in the article was €21m not £21m. We would need to replace him as Bissouma isnt ready .

He’s better than Stephens and kayal. Need to keep him and upgrade the other two. As well as a striker.
75m on 3 players needed in the summer if we stay up.

Nearer £18.85 at todays normal tourist rate.

Taking into account the job they each do I would say definitely Kayal, but not Stephens.
Currently I'd rather have Davy over Barndoor.
(Unless there is something in his contract that mandates it) then there is literally ZERO chance we would sell Davy Pröpper for €21m.
None whatsoever.

we need to shake up the midfield, but Propper is certainly not the weak link. we'd be going backwards if he left.

Exactly, now if it was double that amount, then maybe....

Unfortunately we have never really seen the best of Davy in my opinion. As we know, Chris Hughton somewhat shackles hiis midfield players, and has them all working within a very restrictive system.
For PSV, and indeed for the Netherlands, he played/plays a lot further forward, has more license to roam, provides more forward options, and thus comes up with quite a few goals.
Such a shame we haven't seen him do that for the Albion..

Indeed, Even £30m would probably be deemed too low when you consider the time and cost of a replacement, not to mention the risk that a replacement wouldn't be as consistent.
I'd imagine the starting point for talks would be £30m, at today's prices - for a proven, consistent PL performer, at a good age.
I can though, very much believe that Ajax would be interested, and also that he might be open to the idea (might want a move back home / might be tempted by playing in the Champions League, etc).

Not a fan but obviously talented just needs to show it more and definitely needs to toughen up , far to lightweight for the role he’s been asked to play , (yes not his fault) , tricky one but I wouldn’t sell unless he wanted a move .

21M in this market? No chance, let’s give him a run in his preferred position.

Might want to up the fee a fair chunk, but wonder if he might enjoy himself a little more as a sometime attacking presence elsewhere. I think he is replaceable.
