"If I do end up leaving, it would be up to the club to decide on the price. I have all sorts of clauses in my contract, but there is no fixed fee for releasing me".- Fellaini

thats what confuses me, surely the player will know more than anyone?

The Spaniard has already had talks with Kenwright to discuss the future of the club and although the chairman's words were largely encouraging, he admitted Belgium international Fellaini could leave if he invokes his £15m release clause.
"He talked about a couple of new signings and he talked about the squad and asked 'Do they need to go?'" Kenwright said of his discussions with Martinez.
"I said 'No, they absolutely do not have to go', (although) there is one (Fellaini) that has a get-out, which everyone knows."

They've added "£15m release clause". No figure was mentioned. It would seem that there is a clause where if a CL club comes in for him he has the right to speak to them but the fee is still negotiable.

thats what I think tbh it sounds like kenwright was saying he wont let anyone speak to our players like whelan will but in felliani's case he wont be able to stop them from talking to him but we control how much he goes for, if thats the case we should stamp £30 mil on him, like has been said he's out last big asset at the moment so we need to get as much as possible

I imagine the '15m' quoted is just a misprint, they possibly meant to state something about him costing us 15 million. However, it wouldn't surprise if it was stupid, lazy, unresearched journalism.

Few rumors that arsenal have activated his clause . Lets get him sold to make sure we can give roberto some decent funds . Hes a good player but too inconsitent with his form

can only remember a couple of poor games last season and a massive amount where he scared the sh*t out of the opposition in whatever position he was shoved into, an attribute Martinez wants in his players. should we really sell him to one of the teams we have to finish above next season?? and buy who? look at the nonsense prices already being quoted for anyone of proven quality. am getting obsessed with this but wish we would stop doing the medias job for them.

He hasnt done it really though yes up until decemeber he was great but when he got the stoke ban the goals dried up and we didnt miss him when he was out . Hes done nothing the last half of the season . I would like to keep our best players but in our finacial state we need the money which bk cant provide . Fer or capoue could do the job at a lower price then we would still have some left for a striker . If arsenal chelsea and united are intrested then i would expect his price to rise

Surely he'll go somewhere better than Arsenal.

They had a terrible start to the season, by their standards, but they finished really strongly. They are way better than us.

 

[Bluenose1995]

the times said chelsea were after him in janaury yet nothing happened, its rubbish IMO

 

[BoysInBlue]

They are way better than us.

Two draws against them last season say otherwise. They are better than us because they finished higher than us, but they're not 'way better than us' at all. The game at the Emirates showed that. Two evenly matched sides.

 

[DanEFC92]

I loathe Arsenal.

I know they are better than us but they are hardly challenging for the league/cups season upon season are they. They get the Champ League each year and that's it

Bet this is where Martinez's money is coming from, not Bill's back pocket.
