Really.. Did you even watch Kanchelskis?
They have to keep him in the first team squad for a year after buying him back, though, according to the Martinez interview. If it's accurate, then he does have to be good enough to at least be a squad player for them. They can't just park him on the bench for a year in hopes of selling him.He doesn't need to be good enough for Barca for them to buy him though - he just needs to be worth more than the agreed buy back fee.
He's got a long way to go yet...Blows Kanchekskis out of the water this kid
The deal means he'll have to be in their first team for a year though, and then we have first choice to buy him and if we turn that down we get a percentage of their sale. Seems a massive gamble for them to buy him just to keep him for a season and then sell him. I think they'll only take him if they want him for their squad.He doesn't need to be good enough for Barca for them to buy him though - he just needs to be worth more than the agreed buy back fee.
He was one of the very few players we've had in decades who you could genuinely call world class
Had a read up on Barca's buy back clause it doesn't mention but does the player get a say in things?
There was one moment today over at the Bullens Road Paddock,2nd half near the touchline when a Villa player literally bounced off him,he's certainly beefed/bulked himself up this season.
