My guess would be that we were interested but he wasn’t first choice. While we were bartering for first choice he used our interest to get himself a new contract with the club inserting this release clause.Strange deal if true at the price mentioned. In May we were linked at his release clause of £12-14 million pounds if im not mistaken. Its also then rumours of Wanyama's injury surfaced and he was up for sale.
In today’s money 25M is almost a punt. Like a 10M player was 2-3 yrs ago.
