We sold Dele for £5m. That was a bargain, for someone, but not for us.
Shrewd business management from someone right there.
To be fair, I don't think anyone expected Dele to perform as well as he did in his first couple of seasons at Spurs. He could have just as easily been put in the reserves or loaned out to a Championship club and probably have justified the £5m price tag rather than what he might be worth now.
Just have to hope that sell-on clause comes in use one day.
Then I'd say that whoever advised the club on the deal performed a gross dereliction of duty.
We got his market value at the time.
As I've already stated, poor. We sell a player to a world renowned club for a pitiable sum. A player that could potentially be at Real next season, for multi million pound fee.
£5m. Bargain. I'll take him.
There is no way you sat there after that deal was done, saying he would be ever present the next season and a England international.
I said he would be close to the first team, but never expected the way his career exploded. 5 million with the loan and the associated add on's was good at the time.
True, but then again I'm not a footy agent. I'm just a guy that likes it.
It's not my job to assess the player's skills and potential. It's my job to repair central heating. I can tell you what's wrong with a boiler. Because that's my job. And I'm very good at it, and get rewarded according. But if I was shite at it then I'd expect to be criticised.
