But what if the PO (supposedly) reduced the cost of the contract (as you seem to always claim) that we're wasting on the declined benchwarmer?
The risk of the PO increases with the likelihood of the player activating it.

And (obs) if you don't give a PO, the risk of it can never increase.
If you don't give the player the PO he won't give the club a discount on his required salary. Ths is how commercial transactions work.
As discussed by many above and previously, there is no benefit to the club through a PO - with the high likelihood that the player would have signed for the offered amount anyway.
High likelihood is it? We should probably give them less money as well. I reckon there's a high likelihood that he would've signed anyway ffs

Lol. This is how poor commercial transactions work. See the clip Pazza posted above.

Just offer them what we're offering them, but without the player option. If they walk away because some other weak club offers them a player option so be it, and move onto the next one. At least then we will have decided that we won't stay a weak club into the future.
