If both parties agree there is no issue but most players are going to want to get their money.

I'd still love to get a ref, I've been searching this very topic for ages, I wish I could get it out of my head.

That's why we need to put the pressure while he's over there. So he doesn't want to come back

He has been badmouthing the club. We must be trying to piss him off.

At his age, IMO he won't risk his contract with us, unless he can get a better offer in England, which would be extremely unlikely.
We may have to fork out a bit in updating his salary over there, if we don't really want him, it is probably the best-case scenario I can see.
