£4m isn't enough as we'd struggle to replace him for that.
New contract, release clause at around £10-15m.
Saints spent £8m on Ross Stewart who was older, had missed a year with a knee injury and had far less experience in the Champ and only had 12 months remaining on his deal. If they want BTA the bidding starts at £10m.
Would be open to someone like Edozie, Smallbone or Bree on loan too. Doubt any of them will be regulars for them.
IMO, a release clause that high would just be irrelevant, I don't think he's worth anywhere close to that amount personally. No idea if the rumours are true but I'm shocked if a PL side are genuinely interested, he would surely be a 3rd choice or backup option only
