Which would you rather have and which do you think is better value?
We haven't paid anything like £8 million for Zohore to date. The only way we will is if he and we are a major success over the course of his contract. Don't mean to be picky but we didn't let Gayle go either. He returned to his contracted club who've been holding out for a fee reportedly in the region of £15 million to £20 million as they'd rather not loan him out again. I'd love to see him back and feel the fees we've committed to thus far have freed up wiggle room for increased wages elsewhere. Be it Gayle or someone else here's hoping we sign the goalscorer and wide man we clearly need.
