I’d agree, but I seem to remember that it was Conte that wanted him gone due to lack of commitment. Not sure there is a way back for him, especially as we’d likely get good money for him.

he cares about national team more than us, can't wait for him to leave

This times 10
Get rid- invest this money for someone who gives a sh1t about playing for us at least (they don't have to love us- just give their all on the pitch when playing for us)

 

[Yiddo100]

Feel like that’s on the very cheap side, hopefully keeping them sweet as we like one of their players

 

[bloodzeed]

Expected at least 25m

 

[mark87]

Should be atleast 10m more, can't help but feel we're having our pants pulled down here if the fee is true.

That's really low. Original tweet suggests we wanted 24m. I imagine there's a lot in bonuses in the deal.

 

[amathews3416]

It’s Villarreal. They were never going to pay a real high price for him. They don’t have that type of cash.

 

[BorjeSpurs]

Selling players we want to get rid of is always harder from a negotiation stand point. I’d argue our record sale from a player we wanted to ship is Trippier at €22m.

He's scored 2 league goals and has 4 league assists since 2019. He's not exactly earned himself a huge fee, especially with Villareal not being in Europe next year.

Take the money, clear the salary, move on. Would much rather have the certainty of him being off the books and 15-18m in our pocket than holding out all summer for an extra 3-5m. I think we probably got a bit in loan fee as well. Opportunity cost of holding onto him would be killer, and that small difference in price is pretty negligible considering our cash injection.

Expected at least 25m

Might get there with bonuses?

 

[yid-down-under]

I wonder how much initial loan fee to Villarreal was?

 

[HildoSpur]

We just have to take the hit on him - at least we will get some money back which we can reinvest

If this is true, the only consolation I can take from it is that never under Levy/ENIC would we have let a player like this go for so cheap relative to what we bought them for, it's another indicator of a shift in policy.

 

[Legacy]

"We can never shift our unwanted players because Levy demands too much money!"

"Why are we agreeing to sell our unwanted players for less money?!"

Sorry disagree…no one wants him he is terrible

Don’t agree he’s terrible, doesn’t suit English football and should be sold l, but champions league alone shown he’s not terrible, £12-15m would be very bad deal
