......plus his approx £10M/year contract!!!
If he is not going to sign a new contract, then the club should try to recoup some of their money. For £25M in transfer fee and wages, you can get at least 1 quality player and, with a few quid extra, you can buy WORLD CLASS! THAT is why clubs buy players in their early/mid-20s, so they have either some decent resale or you get them for two contracts (~7 or 8 years)!
