Next time we reject an opening bid for Branthwaite I’m gonna go in his thread and start telling people that means the deal must be off and he’s staying.
You'd think with it now being in the public domain we'd go back VERY quickly with a 2nd offer or just negotiate on the phone until the amount is agreed.
Get the offer over and hopefully get him and Aznou over the line together.
Given how fast it went from talks to rejected opening bid, I can’t see past reports of a second bid coming during the game later or at some point tomorrow x
Not sure how you could’ve possibly come to this conclusion because we’ve had a bid rejected. If anything this is far more encouraging that we are serious about this deal than a tweet from Fabrizio Romano.
Reckon this will get done then. Assuming all reports are true, the player is keen and clubs are not far off in valuation, and this was our first bid which you'd never expect to have accepted. Blimey.
