He could reject it though! It is nice to have an asset that we could sell to keep the club from going to the wall during this covid crisis.....getting Shankland in could become one of our most important signings ever.

Have to disagree with that. I can't see the club's owners doing that. They're not poor, and they're sitting on the best playing asset we have. If it costs more in bonuses to keep him here until the market picks up that's what I think they would do.Quote:

That's my point OS, why I think the club won't sell him for the kind of money mentioned earlier. The transfer market will recover, clubs are still going to want to buy good players. I think by January and definitely by next summer things will look a lot different to how they look now.Quote:

Neither had Robertson mate. 3/4 million for a player like shanks is short change to some clubs including English championship clubs.Quote:
