Consider the impact that he, a proven Championship performer, could have on our promotion prospects I’d see he’s worth at least twice that bare minimum.
About right.
I think he may be worth 20m but no more.
I can't see anyone paying much more than that for him. Who'd buy him?
Edit: I know the date but you really think that we'd get 34m for him?
How much did Benrahman go for? Or Watkins? In this market then yeah I’d say that’s a fair valuation.
Put it another way, would £17m buy a player of equivalent quality to play in the Champ next year? Considering the riches available for promotion and the difference he could make to our chances then I would argue he is worth considerably more to us than £17m and any transfer fee should reflect that. If nobody pays it then fine, he stays.
Correct.
Better player than Benrhama who went for £30m, and his impact in terms of goals / assists in the Champ and PL is up there with Buendia who was being linked with £40m moves. He’s shown when given freedom he can play at this level, and has plenty of time on his contract... £30m this summer or £20m next.
