Yup. Will be asked to replace with a player for peanuts no doubt.

Fair play to them they always get top dollar. I can’t see how he’s worth anywhere near that. What did they pay for him - £1m? He hasn’t improved to that extent over the last year

When you play fancy passing football and acquire young players to do it you tend to get top dollar. If we persist with SM's approach we will get similar fees for Rubin and Isaac in future years.

Agree,these fees tho are total deals I bet they don't get that cash upfront .

Not that I give a toss how they do but that will be a loss to them and I can see them really struggling this season

Depends on which news is later the deal or the collapse? But swans signed a forward/winger on loan as well... in preparation? :old:

I've not seen anything that suggests a deal has been done though?
