    The Club have indeed confirmed that Jozabed Sanchez has been sold to Celta Vigo.

    They say for an undisclosed fee, although the story on the street is we got £4.5m, which is a tidy £1m plus profit. Kind of looks as though we're trying to build up a transfer kitty so that when we splash out ourselves it will be break even at the end of the day - as per the last two windows. Not doing the wage bill any harm either when you add in Martin and Parker.

    Overall guess no complaints but a bit weird when you consider he's only 1 year into a 3 year contract that had a further year's option. Can't quite remember the role of the 'analytics' in the original signing but probably best not to go there anyway.

    We signed him for a different system, then realised (finally) how good Cairney actually was in the middle. Add the fact that Jozabed never really settled and this deal is good for all concerned.

    Still, it's a shame that we never got to see his potential. But now let's either use the money towards our new striker or to buy some CM cover and move on.
