Newtopia 519 Posted April 18, 2022 I think that depends on who wants him and for what reason, I suspect he would be happy to stay with us, he would probably be happy as part of a team where he is less of the focus but more likely to win - especially if that came with a longer well paid contract.

KeiranShikari 1,434 Posted April 18, 2022 He's 32 so absolutely 'last big contract' time. We'd honestly be foolish to not give him that if he wanted to stay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The quotes from Pukki are very much about seeing out this season and then see what happens. Us exercising the extension just means he can’t just leave for nothing but he is entitled to go if we don’t make him a decent, longer term offer to stay. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny Foggo 1,116 Posted April 19, 2022 If Pukki is sold it would be unforgivable given his record in this division. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny Foggo 1,116 Posted April 19, 2022 and I doubt any money received would find any one as prolific... Sargeant was how much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even at what, 60k pw, that's £3million a year. There's no way unless you strike absolute gold that you're getting a replacement nearly as good for that money (and that's not including the additional wages). I suppose the only flipside is if a good, top 10 Premier League club wanted him and it was his last chance for a big contract, it'd feel a bit wrong holding him to ransom here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
