Well it's clearly bullshit. Humberside literally spoke to Tan this afternoon and it takes about 3 days to even find Middlesbrough
I just find a lot of the rumours odd. One poster on here said Greaves Snr. has said Jacob wants to stay at City but Boro are offering a lot more money. I hope he stays but I wouldn’t bet my house on it.
They probably are, but until they agree a fee then they can't offer anything in writing. Gonna have to wait and see if they can come back with an offer that makes financial sense to the club. £8m might do as we have to consider what he may be worth next summer.
I think if we lost Greaves to a Championship rival, it would reflect poorly on the club. KLP leaving is a whole different kettle of fish as we sold high to a Prem club and he’s wanted out since League 1 due to his arsehole agent being a nuisance. Jacob wants to stay apparently, so a lateral move to a Championship club for anything less than £10 mil because Boro are offering better wages kinda sends the message that the club aren’t doing enough to convince our most talented players to stay. I don’t know what Boro’s financial clout is like but if they’re offering higher wages, I think we should just match it tbh.
It would be nice for Paul Woodford to explain the situation. Seems like Baz has taken his word for it with no evidence.
Oh yeah, Spence and Tavernier. Still think we should tell them to **** off and match whatever wages they want to offer Greaves.
