IIRC it was a bit more complicated in the case of Ollie. I think it was reported that there was a higher offer for him in the January window but we asked him to stay and help us try for promotion (lost at Wembley) and in return he was allowed to go to his preferred club in the summer for a slightly lower fee but a decent add-on.
Thanks John seem to remember that now, I was talking in general though when it comes to tranfers, Frustrating but that is how it is with us
Agree entirely especially with hindsight. But that seems to be the system even though it stinks for clubs like ours.Hopefully we’ll get that four million though if he stays fit and keeps scoring. Anyway , I’m glad for Ollie and enjoy following his progress , far more than following Ampadu’s bench sitting.
Great way of getting more for the player, Tell him to sign a four year deal but if a club comes in from a higher division and for silly money we won't step in your way. Brentford aren't a big club, Yes they have money behind them but there are a lot bigger clubs with deeper pockets who will seriously look at Ollie if he keeps this form up, He looks very natural playing up front in the centre
I think he might end up even higher. Maybe Leicester, Everton, West Ham kind of territory
