Age, nationality, potential. sure. Not a world record transfer for a CB. Unless he gets into Southgates squad and plays, it won't be a top 5 fee for a CB.
please stop licking mushrooms in the forest and come back down to reality my friend.
What planet are these recent deals being done on because a 120mil deal would be the third most expensive transfer ever done on earth…
Remember Wesley Fofana? Remember Harry Maguire?
Branthwaite has greater potential than both had and already looks to be amongst the best in the league.
We've seen Moises Caicedo going for £120 odd million when most thought he would be rated at £50-70mil.
Now the DM position value has increased tremendously, cant we expect the CB position to go the same way?
Hes on a 4 year deal and we have a 1 year extension option.
Over the coming 2-3 seasons how much can we predict top end CBs values increasing by?
This figure has to be priced into his valuation + an additional premium.
Otherwise we keep him 2-3 more seasons and benefit from the on pitch ability and his increased value.
