No it isn't.
Are you advocating we put a buy back clause on every youngster we sell in case they might improve significantly?
If we think he is going to be a worldy then, why would they be considering offloading him, why not simply loan him out.
Being devils advocate I know, but why are we selling him in the first place?
Some players develop late and shock everyone. Two years before he made his £85M move to Real, Bale was being hawked around the Prem for £5M and had no takers.
Probably because Levy wanted a buy back clause, right to first born and a commission on future sales !
And a clause to ensure each received a pup that is taken from them after a year and the requisite number of fond members had been formed.You're being too kind to Levy. He'd want the right to the first born from every generation for the next century.

3 years before, and he Had only just turned 21
