Not forgetting we seem to have negotiated a 55% discount on his price

Based on this:

"Sporting only own 35% of him. The Portuguese media say the deal was done on Wednesday for 10m euros (?8.5m). The club need the money to pay the wages. The idea is Norwich pay now and get a bit of a bargain, because his buy-out clause is about 22m euros (?18.7m)."

Which also limits the downside risk. Some so-called big club not performing well enough next January/summer will most likely overpay for him providing he's not total s**t when he arrives (which I very much doubt)

So I can't see how we can lose - unless we forget to buy long-term injury insurance for him
