For just £4m???
Surely we'd not let him go that cheaply |  |

Although I can not see him going to Sheff U, I do think we will sell him for around that figure. We should be pushing for a figure closer to 7/8 million imo |  |

According to the reports... £4m is what they’re going to offer. Doesn’t mean we’d accept it. I guess it depends on other offers or if there’s a buyout clause in his contract. Does seem like a bargain. |  |

Will be amazed if he goes for as little as that. Surely this is the opening bid on what could be a long auction. Surely Leeds will make a bid too? |  | | |

The same report (from Alan Nixon who probably gets more right than wrong) mentions they'll also offer Swansea £15m for Ollie McBurnie... |  | | |

We sold Smithies to Cardiff for £1.50 + VAT so I am not sure whether we would get a fiver for Luke?
Problem we have is is there a figure in any kind of release clause? We turned down £4 million last season and he signed a longterm contract but if it still said £4 million in that (which knowing us we didn't adjust) then we are screwed.
I think they may get some add ons but I sadly think he will go for £4 million and we'll be told it's great business because we bought him for £315K in 2017. |  |

£4 mill ? If he goes for that then what is the point of trying to buy cheap players or bring through youngsters if we're not going to get decent money for them.?
Ok we got him on a free but the point is we should get what the players worth to us not what other clubs thinks he's worth. He our best player by a mile. Might as well keep him for that money. |  |

Depends on if that's the only offer and if there's a clause that's activated for a PL team making the offer. £4m is a tragic fee considering what he means to us and what similar/lesser players in this league seem to go for, but he wants to move and we need to sell, so I wouldn't be shocked if it happened - just disappointed!
I think closer to £7m is more realistic, but there doesn't seem to be a flurry of suitors at our door and with the obvious route of Pulis at Boro gone, maybe beggars can't be choosers... |  |

Nothing less than £8-10M. |  | | |

Yes, it is fcuking aggravating.
If he was pretty sh!t and playing for some cr@p French team or something they'd probably get 25 million, we'll get 4. |  | | |

It wouldn't surprise me that he inserted a release clause in his last contract he signed for us. £4m is a figure that keeps getting banded about so there maybe some truth in this as the release amount? |  | | |

So what's the point in trying to become a selling club if everyone is going to take the P ? We to establish some sort of reputation as bringing through top class players rather then being some sort of charity club. | |

Still haven't gotten over the Smithies deal last year, but it prepares you for what's to come.
If Freeman was playing for someone else I suspect they would get double what we'll end up with. | |

Those add ons really worked on the smithies deal |  |

That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Agreed, but it's only a rumour at the moment, so I guess we'll have to see where we end up with it. | |

Its too early in the window to sell at a bargain basement price.
If we get to the end of the window, and we're forced to sell b/c there are no other suitors, then fine, beggars can't be choosers. But as of now, time is on our side, and we can be selective.
If nothing else, it may prompt Blades to increase their offer to seal the deal. | | | |

He will be sold to the Blades as no doubt he has a release clause for a Prem club. And they have bid that as his agent has leaked it to them this is the minimum required.
He is most likely gone, which explains how we are looking to buy cheap forwards from L1 and then we can offload Matt Smith and that will be our Business done. We shall once again try and cling on until the end.
This pattern will repeat for a while me thinks :(

Owners cannot put money in because of FFP
The club does not generate enough income from LR
The club have to sell at the first offer "because we're skint"

Without Premier League money/parachute payments, and with our infrastructure, we are a bottom quartile Championship/top half League 1 club. Depressing, given the opportunities we’ve had and blown. | |

We made a decent profit on Smithies, and it just seems everyone else in the world rates him far less than we all do!
As far as selling, if only one club comes in, there's not a lot we can do. I'd brace for #4m, but I hope we might get an extra mill on top of that, which would be 10 times what we paid for him and really is about right if we're honest.
Plus, it will be undisclosed, so we'll all get upset about something we're not actually sure about. |  |
