    Interesting article. We may only get a few million from Ba leaving, but others clubs will have to fork out around 30m to sign the lad.

    His current wages are reported to be around 40k a week.

    So he either gets a rich ass club paying a ridiculous fee and wages for him, or he gets his **** sorted out here.

    If him not getting his 80k a week effects his performances, then I say free transfer him. No point in keeping him here if he'd rather be somewhere else.

    I'll leave this for ACS to deal with.

    'It is believed the fees required to pay those representing Ba would be around £5m.'

    'A four-year deal at £80,000 a week, the figures his representatives are asking for, would mean any buying club would have to put together a £16m wage package.'


    This tells me everything I need to know about where from and why this story keeps on going ....

    This happens at regular intervals. Ba's agent touts a move so that he can get a cut - a bit lie Anelka used to be touted by his brother.
    It would be a nice change if Ba showed some faith in a club that took him on when most others wouldn't, due to his knee.
    Then again, it's only fans that show any loyalty, and even then...
