Probably just makes sense for everyone. Given our position it's very unlikely we'd have been able to offer him a chance in the first team. And £500k is a decent fee given his level of experience.
Brentford and Bournemouth are still objectively tiny clubs though. Would be interesting to see one of them get to Wembley these days - would they even sell out their allocation?
Just seems like a lot of money that you have little chance of getting back
Assumed Onyeka would be a loan, maybe with an obligation on promotion. I'd imagine he's probably on more than our top earners too?
