Gonna give my hopefully measured view.
If its 15 million up front and Spurs are getting a cut, it's not good. If we sign Simic as well you're looking at about 5 million left to sign a replacement, which is what I'm told we are planning.
I've always said, £25 million should be the minimum and premiums should be added the further along we got, so I can't go back on that thought. However, I get that the clubs hand may have been forced.
Clarke wanted to leave for the Prem and he's in his prime so can't be slated for leaving, he's too good for this level.
Hopefully Simic signs and Isidor is a striker option as opposed to a wide option.
Big moves needed in the next few days, think with two forwards signing, Rusyn will have to go, Ekwah still up in the air, Ba in a tough position and half of our defenders could potentially leave.
