Not much the club can do if he wants to move.

I’m sure the club has tried to change his mind.

Good luck to him he’s done well for us.
The point is you reach a point in the remaining contract where they either sign a new deal or you sell them. Get a transfer fee. Let them run down the contract, they leave for nothing. I get you can't stop them leaving but at least get money for them. To let valuable assets leave for nothing is terrible business.

I think I would rather they stayed the extra year - not going to get too much for VVd or Mo at their age and both have indicated they want to stay and I expect Trent is in the same boat if the contract is right

We have shown in the past that they are ok with players leaving on a free

Get a good year out of players like Mo and VVD as opposed to £30/40mil

It’s the same with City letting the likes of Gundegon go on a free and also KDB running his contract down

Munich do it regularly now as well

Unbeaten in three since we sacked O'Neil, should've gone ages ago.
Thought we could've actually won it.
I always thought you looked better than your league position at the start of the season.
Just seemed to make silly mistakes trying to play it from the back.
