I think it's more likely than ever especially....

If we get tonked today.

As I posted yesterday their opening bid is around 13.2m quid and we accepted the Wolfsburg bid in the summer for around 18m quid.
Not that far apart in today's transfer world.

I'm also assuming we haven't paid for Ali in full yet.

Our biggest hurdle is not selling Sarge but having enough time to get in a quality replacement.
We can't afford to play chicken with clubs and wait till deadline day.

We are better off selling now and finding a replacement (or two)
