We also saw two years, when they were last promoted, how happy Fulham were to throw money around. If they really want KWP, then I'd expect them to offer him bigger wages than us. Of course, what we massively have in our favour is that he's already integrated into our team, and our sights for next season will be higher than Fulham's. From a football perspective, I would say it's us. From a personal. social, financial perspective, I would say it's Fulham.
We have skimped on the investment in the defence in the last 2 or 3 windows compared to the rest of the squad and for the sake of a few million we shouldn't dick about for a deal with Spuds for KWP. if it is the reported £12m they are asking then just get it done asap.
In theory, but it's Levy. So I doubt it's that simple. Even if he has asked for £12m and we are prepared to pay it, I'm sure he then adds in other complications. Especially as there is the PEH thing ongoing.
If Ralph wants him the club should do all they can to back him, like I say it's the defence that is in need of investment this window. we can't afford to go into next season with what we have currently got IMO.
Reports now suggest we have accepted an offer from Spurs totaling £25m. Maybe we were right to be tough negotiators rather than just bending over for LEvy after all!
But will we get KWP,? no point in getting the money if we don't use it. Edit: I see the Richie has just answered my question, KWP and +£12m would be a right result.
If this means £25 million then Semmens can come round my house and help himself to my snack drawer and beers any time he wants.
Should all be concluded pretty quickly now. £25m for Hojbjerg is brilliant and KWP for £12m also good business. Couldn't have asked for a better start to the window
