One that scares em off hopefully and protection against a poor league position finish this year He doesn't want to go and we can afford to keep him whatever happens. I think we are much better run as a club now and we will hopefully have something in place that benefits the club above all else. Do you think its better that he doesn't have a release clause?

Its the kind of thing you need when your relationship with a club is very much different to the one Jack has with Villa. If the situation arises where his departure is fair for both club and player then the deal will be thrashed out. Let's hope that situation doesn't materialise any time soon or indeed ever!

Exactly why would we sell in the middle of the season and risk us falling outside of the top 10. No if we are going to sell jack it would be in the summer probably the season after when more of the big clubs can afford to offer big fees. 110 should be the starting bid and we should be aiming to get it all the way up to 230 and have Jack be the record player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you set an absolutely ridiculous fee. It gives both the player and the club protection. If the club start failing the player can get out but the club can point to the release clause and go only for that amount. If there is a release clause it will be north of 200 million.

No way would Jack and his agent have signed a contract with a 200 mil release clause. Thats just insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Southgates tone when talking about Jack has changed dramatically, I'd say someone upstairs has given him a right kick up the backside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats just insane. De Ligt signed a release clause over 200 million. And Jack's value is exponentially increasing. Anything less than 150 mil would be robbing us blind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One For The Road Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 From SHA: "How are they picking Greasy over Jude .....!!!" Wtf. I mean surely they can't seriously be suggesting that Grealish, who has been tearing up the Prem for 2 seasons and getting MOTM each time he plays for England, should be dropped from the side for an unproven 17 year old?

If there IS a release clause it'd be around 80 mil and it would have been negotiated down by Jack's agent. But I don't believe there is one.

Well I do a lot of work with agents and work with top clubs all over Europe so whilst I am not an "expert", I do know some stuff yes. And I merely asked you a question, which you still haven't answered. Edited November 15, 2020 by One For The Road 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could just refuse to sell him if he didn't have a release clause even if it is really high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
