Hindsight will be 20/20 and maybe it will end up a bad call but looking at the big picture we haven’t done this enough. Too often we give away these guys after their contract runs down. At least here we made an actual amount that can go towards reinvestment. It is what it is
Indeed. We could have sold Tom Davies or Ross Barkley for fortunes. Can't think of any untried youngsters we have let go early for a fee and regretted

Opportunities where the player hasn’t seen a real minute selling for 4 mil on the last year of his deal is something that don’t come around often. Not bothered really. If he comes good, good on him.
 



UP THE CHELS


Personally thought he was the best prospect out the current crop.
A huge shame that we cannot keep our best players from the big clubs anymore, we had only recently lost Emilio Lawrence to Manchester City.

Just goes to show that we’re never going to compete ever again with the current crop or big clubs, unless we get some really dirty money.

It's really sad, that we have to sell our young lads. But it's were we are as a club. Hopefully, the deal has a few nice bonuses in and a sell on.
 

Watched him for the u21s last season a few times. Good player but £4 mil is a lot of a money for a kid. Isn’t that what the academy is for?
With our record, of keeping kids until they are in their mid 20's who never get in the first team, yes it is. It's money now on potential, hopefully we won't regret it in a few years. But it's were we are as a club.

He isnt in his last year mate...his contract has expired.

Hopefully, we can add Keane and Holgate to that for some more pennies.

And maupay + Iwobi
