I agreed with you earlier but have changed my mind seeing it reported that he's there for negotiations. Looks bad and it's not just some silly tweet now.
It's purely off the back of that picture though(hense why the media are actively using the picture to support their claims). It could have been taken anytime and anywhere in reality. Rumours are Kone's agent sent it to the papers with the cover story he's in a Liverpool hotel.
To me, it's still a case of his agent trying to land him a better deal. Where? He won't care, but I'd bet one of my bollocks(good job it could never be proven beyond the theory
) he'll be quite happy for him to stay at Sunderland if he lands him and his client a wage hike for Kone and a nice lump some for the agent himself.I mean his agent is Willie McKay. An agent who knows and uses every trick in the book to get his clients the best deal available. With that in mind. If we offer Kone the best deal I'm certain he'll go nowhere.
