So if we bought him back, would we get a percentage of that thus lowering the overall fee?!!
Nice place to live though.May be time in the summer for Matt - who got the assist for their goal last night - to move on if Swansea are to become a permanently struggling Championship side(or worse).
I am not totally convinced that there is a sell on fee anyway. I do not recall this ever being confirmed officially by the Club. At the time it was said that Swansea were insisting on a one off fee without add ons (albeit paid in four tranches over two seasons ). If we did therefore negotiate a sell on percentage that will have represented good work in the prevailing conditions. On the plus side there was strong competition for his signature with the likes of Everton also being in for him, but set against that was our desperate need to sell as a result of the deep financial "doo doo" that we were in. The infamous admission from our Finance Director re "taking our eye of the ball" was putting it rather mildly with PFA Loans and resulting transfer bans being necessary to bale us out.So if we bought him back, would we get a percentage of that thus lowering the overall fee?!!
Taggy confirmed at one of the fans forum (i think it was last January) that there is a 10% sell on fee for Matt Grimes.I am not totally convinced that there is a sell on fee anyway.

I really do hope that a sell on exists however unlikely a move might be at present. A direct question to El Presidente at a forum may provide a definitive answer.
That’s good business considering the transfer fee.Taggy confirmed at one of the fans forum (i think it was last January) that there is a 10% sell on fee for Matt Grimes.
James Coppinger comes to mind.Do we still have a sell on for MG?
