From that article it sounds as others have mentioned, that he feels rejected by City. However, even if Hart never wanted to return to the club, 4.5million (1million "Loan fee" and then 3.5 million bid) is an absolute joke of an offer. The owners of Brumtown we're saying how there going to bankroll Brums Jan spending spree, therefore, as others have with us, we should stick on a "Birmingham premium". His potential of future England number 1 added to the "Birmingham premium" should put him at around 17-18million. He's worth at least 7-10million now, then added future potential and the premium, I feel thats a fair evaluation.
In my opinion we shouldn't sell at all, we're in the driving seat cos ultimately we've got the money to not need to sell him, and we've got contract of the player. Loan him out there again, but as someone said before, if he goes to the World Cup, then we may see his valuation sky rocket.
