Honestly if Olise is available for £8m and we haven't been in contact.

12 assists and 7 goal at just 19 years of age.

Complete and Utterly Useless Brands
We should probably be signing a championship youngster who could conceivably be first team ready (so while Branthwaite is a good idea, a bit better) every year.
 

….the player has to agree to move even if a club trigger the release clause. No monies are paid until all parties agree the move. They can’t be forced to go where they don’t want to go.
Thats exactly what I was getting at. The fact it stated Palace had already paid his release clause without the player agreeing to the move.

…i doubt it said they had ‘paid’ the figure. A player might have a £40m release clause, all that means is a buying club must declare they are content to meet that figure. No monies are paid at that point but they should be given permission to talk to the player.

They probably have paid it, but if the player refuses to sign the money is returned. It’s possibly to make sure the issue is dealt with one way or another rather than left hanging around causing the player and club to be unsettled. The tweet did say it’s been paid. It’s probably just a mechanism to apply pressure on all parties to resolve.

Well they do normally speak to them before it’s paid. Maybe it’s just a poorly worded tweet.
I actually doubt if they have spoken to him in this case. That’s why they’ve paid the release clause - the selling club probably insisted on it to deter suitors. Palace hoping to convince him now and using the payment of the release clause to demonstrate how serious they are.
