Proposal for centre-back worth โ‚ฌ2.5m. Far below what #AFC might consider to sell & will be rejected. 27yo has 1yr left on contract + club option to extend by 12mnth @TheAthleticFC

I know he isn't the greatest, but that is an insulting offer.

We should at the very least be getting back what we paid for him. If we get an offer for ยฃ5m-ยฃ6m, I think Arsenal will accept the bid.

That fee is a joke

He brings more than that value to the squad via morale and as a backup.

Damn straight, really unfortunate he was thrust in the spotlight for so long due to the injury crisis but he's good enough for EFL games and late subs, and yes is a great presence in the locker room

Even if he wasn't a player at all and just hung around the squad, I don't think I'd want us to accept that lmao. ยฃ2.5m is a lot of money but in football terms it's peanuts.

Double it and give it to the next person.

Make it 15 then we'll chat

That's a fucking insult. He's fine as a depth option and a squad presence. 15-20 at least
