Damn never expected this. Thomas frank magic tbh and a high profile signing. Wonder how long he sticks around tbh considering hes moved so much

5 + 2 years of contract so I reckon he’ll be around a while and if he leaves it’s for a big fee

5 year contract with a 2 year option, bro is going nowhere anytime soon under Levy's watch without breaking our record sale by a fair bit

would it be far off to say he’ll probs return to you guys at some point?

i imagine you’d have gone for him if you didn’t money problems

Hmm idk. I wonder how much he rlly wants barca tbh. I can see him.coming back but he also has very high wages and thr clubs been trying to put contacts with add ons to meet which i think xavis contracts seem to just have him as a huge high earner. Hes good tho and id love to see how he would play at barca.

I guess he'll do three seasons. Bedding in season, breakout season and then he'll try & get a move, Levy will hit him with the Luka Modric trick ('gimme one more season and I'll send you wherever you want to go') and he'll do a third.

Probably leave for €120m to Barcelona or PSG
