Very surprised Levy agreed to this clause in the first place.
He’s got us by the balls on this one.
As I said before, we signed him for 11m. The 25m buyout didn't look too shabby then but a couple of seasons of hyper inflation make it look a lot worse now.
absolute disgrace letting another player at the peak of his career go. He is genuine world class

That's the thing, if Toby was desperate for a particular prem club, would we write off say circa £15 million, to deny a move, especially if we were said amount short of acquiring a top talent we'd like to purchase.
We did it with Modric, Real Madrid got him cheap.
If he wants out off he goes
Get de vrij for free in from lazio and spend the rest of some talent
Going to inter it appears.
Thought the rumour was he wants to leave Italy?
Shame if true
More likely that an amazing WC would see his value surge, and make selling him this summer even more appealing Imo.Will be very interesting if he and Belgium have an amazing World Cup. Personally right now I think club aren’t too bothered if he goes,but an amazing World Cup could change all that. It may force their hand too keep him.
Mate, if they want to leave they will leave. You can delay it like Arsenal have done and they leave for nothing and go wherever they like. Look at the mess they are in now contract wise. There is nothing any club can do if a player is determined to go. You can't make them sign new contracts.
What became of Football Manager legend Éder Álvarez Balanta? A left CB presumably well used to playing next to Davinson given that they must have come through the Colombian youth setup together.
