That's not what I said.Absolute madness that you think there arent clubs who would want Wright. Said it before, will say it again, every club in the league would want him.
We signed Simms for 3m with the rest being add ons, could we find someone else who would spend that on him? Absolutely.
I said, who would pay us the money that we would want.
We are unlikely to sell Wright without bringing in enough money to replace him.
If Doug thinks that it would cost £15million to replace him. (Purely as an example) then how many clubs are realistically going to pay that?
You are presuming that we would accept £3million for Simms, purely because that's what we paid upfront 2 years ago. how do you know what Doug would accept? And how do you know what clauses Everton still have in his transfer deal? Again, you are presuming that selling him would just get us out of any further payments.
Also he's rumoured to be earning £25k per week, how many clubs in the Championship would pay that for a striker who only managed 6 league goals?
