Not a chance Laalaoui is on £8k a week coming from Morocco and being so young, unless there was loads of interest from elsewhere so we had to tempt him.
Not that I disagree with your reasoning here, but why is there no chance in hell we’re paying him £8k a week (I don’t think we are, for the record)?
We didn’t buy him as an academy product, he was bought for the first team and I can absolutely believe that if his agent pitched £8k (or a slightly smaller but equally undeserving amount for an untested 20 year old from Morocco) under the premise that he had offers from bigger clubs, Acun would instantly pay it.
