Personally I think KLPs representative is looking after his interests more then KLPs and I think the club's handling of this has just been plain stupid. KLP deserves a pay rise and the club deserve to get said player on a longer deal to protect the club more. It's a **** situation and potentially the biggest loser in this is KLP and his career development
I want KLP to start tomorrow. He’s one of our best players. But I’m delighted that we’ve signed Gavin Whyte, he’s a good wide man and goal scorer.
League One now operates under a £2.5m annual salary cap, averaging £1,700 per player per week. This does not apply to existing contracts - if a player currently earns £3,000-per-week, only £1,700 will count - but all new contracts must conform. So is it the club can’t offer more???
I don't know his agent, so I can't comment on whether or not he's being misrepresented. It is a **** situation. A ****uation, if you will.
I think KLP's agent also represents Brandon Fleming as well - Team MLS. They sorted out a new deal for Fleming in November, so they managed to deal with Ehab then.
Does the fact that they sorted deals for Coyle and Fleming, but not Lewis-Potter, not tell you there's something wrong with the Lewis-Potter deal?
Depends which side of the fence you sit, as you could just say the fact they all signed deals so easily show that something on KLP side is stopping it..... The reality is probably somewhere in between the both, there's the version you've been told, the version I've been told and then the full truth
I just find it boring now. We're trying to get a top young player to commit long term, it was never going to be easy. We never got Bowen to commit long term
Bowen got a three year with an additional one year option, we handled that one pretty well initially, though we had the benefit of all the Premier League cash then.
