The buys players who are rough diamonds with the hope they develop so we can shift them on at a profit. It’s our clubs model.
We have no idea of his contract or the deal with City. The club will have a trigger point value that will see him sold.
I think a clear £3-4m deal profit would see him sold which isn’t bad for 6 months development.
Agree but not the profit level I’d expect the club to want a clear £5million+ maybe even 6 profit, £3 million isnt worth it, when you factor in cost of a replacement, cost of getting the deal done agent fees etc, scouting time and costs, the effort put into training and coaching him, the disruption to the team.
