I bet he's not leaving as flavour of the month. Can't say I'm massively excited...but, that is a big problem for Burnley which is good for us, he's been a very solid player in this league for a number of years and we are DESPERATE for a CF. Overall in current situation I think that is a good signing.
Meh £20m is fine, significantly depletes Burnley and gives us more firepower. If we stay up and it results in Burnley going down, it's the signing of the season.
Hope is doubling down on the release clause claim. Interestingly he suggests we learned of the clause during negotiations to sign Trippier (players use the same agency).
