Barca are pushing the, "he wants to leave and has submitted a request," spin because they're skint and can't pay UK market prices. If he does go there it'll be 40 to 50m plus a player, bearing in mind we're still yet to pay for Firpo I believe.
That being said, rumour has it we refused 55m on Monday and have already turned down West Ham at 50m.
Wonder if we owe Renes anything from this deal?
Part of me thinks he might stay...
What we heard about Phillips, is he off?
