    Key words being "not put in a WRITTEN transfer request"

    That was my point...doesn't deny asking to leave, just that he didn't put it in writing.

    It's not the first and it won't be the last time that a player and club are at odds over a contract proposal, doesn't mean either are in the wrong, just that they can't agree.
    Time to bury the affair in the past and move on.

    Closed matter as far as the club are concerned. And as for the fans, Fonte is no longer here, whereas Reed and the rest of the board are....so our interests are best served by their success not that of an ex-player.

    Just as a matter of interest, why would you be inclined to believe either party? I find it hard in these situations, because the only fact we know for certain, is that he isn't here anymore.

    Could've been an e-mail, a text, a whatsapp, snapchat or vine then?

    Points 3, 6, and 7 scream NDA has been signed. Question is, why? He's opened the can of worms as far as he believes he can without overstepping a specific threshold.

    I'm interested on what basis you believe him. I'm not saying he's not telling the truth but in the absence of further evidence I'd say it's impossible to judge.

    The fact is that whatever means he used, he wanted to leave. He can't imply that by not putting it in writing it means that he wanted to stay when he clearly (for whatever reason) didn't. It doesn't make it any better if he used sign language.

    Can't be - he's still at Bournemouth, isn't he? The article said the player had already moved.

    I thought Payet...he moved for less money. Jusst proves that injunctions can mean that the innocent can get talked about.
