Trott has not even discussed a New Contract yet and City have not even offered the £1.5mill yet.

It’s all media bullshit

That was my initial reaction, sometimes it's good to be 8 hours behind you guys and not have the knee jerk reaction like some.

I hope we activate the option to buy because it would be a mistake if we didn't. £1.5m is nothing for a goalkeeper that good.

I can live with it if we activate that option but he decides to go to a bigger club. But we must activate the option.

Anyway it sounds like the stories today were just the media trying to make a story out of nothing.

If he has offers from teams in the champions league he would be silly not to at least consider it after all a players career is a short one so you couldn't blame him

Whatever he decides I will be thankful to have watched him play for us this season , he's been one of our best keepers in my lifetime and has played a huge part in our promotion and will be forever grateful for his contribution

We will obviously activate the clause. For all the Tan won't spend stuff 1.5 million for a guy who's in the running for player of the year is peanuts. As far as this story is concerned why would the club do anything yet, the season isn't over just because we've been promoted. That clause probably has an actual date when it can be activated and it's not the 21st of April

As I said in the earlier thread, I wouldn’t blame Nathan Trott for holding out to see what occurs, but this is great news and whoever said it’s not the right time (before the end of the season’s loan ends) is spot on! :thumbup: :ayatollah:
