Premier league players won't spend £10m+ on a 21 year old that's still developing.
Give him another year or 2 and PL teams will spend £30m+ on him.

Premier league clubs want PL ready players now, and will spend the big money.
We arnt in that position.
I might be wrong but didn't Illia Zabarnyi go to Bournemouith at almost the same age for a whole heap more than that? Doyle isn't a nipper anymore, which is why Man City want shot!

I think you'll find Man City dont want shot at all.
They've resisted every approach so far, and priced him outside the price range of any championship side.

You clearly dont rate him, that's your opinion, but I have a feeling there will be no shortage of takers should he be made available again for loan or if his valuation is reduced.

It was never on the cards or anything and he's just gone back to Genoa but I'd love to have seen Ostigard back, never got to see him when he was here and he's got that air of a proper mean centre-back about him.

They've only resisted because no one has made an offer that meets their valuation.

He’s 21 - he will be a Prem player…
I'm not convinced he will, I think he lack of pace and I'll hold him back. I can see him playing in the top flight abroad though. It's important to note he played his football for us in a deep defensive unit with 3 at the back and Bidwell next to him. We're now defending with a much higher line.

Technically ability he's is top drawer though.

Norwich conceded 68 in 46 games last season, he played in 40 of those games.

If he happy we signed him but there's surely better players for less than £10m.

Not when you know several clubs are interested, you never accept the first offer. You’d be rubbish on Dragons Den.
But that's not 'wanting shot' of him is it?

If they did they wouldn't care - they'd just accept what was offered regardless. In fact, if they really 'wanted shot' of him they'd just release him.

Both Manchester City and Doyle know he hasn't much chance of getting into their side. But it isn't because he won't become a very good player. They're one if the best teams in the world.

Manchester City need as much income as they can get so they can continue paying astronomical amounts of money on players so they can keep at the top. KKH looks a very good player. Villa sold him for the same reason. It gives funds for more players.
