I don't get how we can make a £32m + add-ons bid if we need to sell players to sign him.
We need to sell players for a few reasons, reducing squad size, reducing payroll and of course to pay fees for players we buy.
As has been quoted by Herc and examples of other clubs recently, we pay for players over 4/5 years, instalments loaded differently but usually more in the initial years.
I'm summising that because of the current climate, because cash flow is critical, receiving monies in to assist covering 1st payments is of great benefit.
